race for the cure

last sunday, the 10th, i participated in the race for the cure here in manhattan. it was really an amazing sight to see so many people in central park supporting such a great cause. there were over 25,000 walkers and runners plus many people along the way cheering everyone on. the most touching moment was seeing all the survivors in one place. it really made an impact and reminded everyone why they were there. i'm so glad i was able to participate and will definitely be doing in next year. i chose to do the run and made it in just over 27 min! i was pretty happy with my time considering it was a little over 3 miles.

otherwise, school is going well. i really feel old in my discrete math class, but i'm pretty sure i'm the only one that knows my age! i'm having to remember all of the things i did back in not only college, but in high school. i'm really going to have to work hard in the beginning weeks so i can remember how to do everything.

work is going well, i'm there all the time. i work 6 days a week there and go to school 4...needless to say, there's not a lot of down time at the moment, but it's all worth it in the long run. hope everyone is doing well. i don't think i'm going to get to go home until christmas, which bums me out, but it will be great to see everyone then. also, mom is going to be out next month, so i'm really looking forward to that. i can't believe i haven't been able to see her since december!! way too long. can't wait for you to get here, mom!
