  • I just discovered that my friend Nora from college (she was a fellow Honors Program geek) has a LiveJournal! It’s weird how many of my real life acquaintances are now bloggers.

  • Running a mile in just over 11 minutes? Nine months of hard work… Finishing 5K in 38:30, when it took me 45:44 last June?
