Fabulous Firsts

It’s been a fabulous day!  3 firsts – mileage, lab, chemistry quiz – all went well 🙂

This morning I finished my pre-lab work and did some studying before I headed to the gym at noon.  I was so nervous about my foot that I actually forgot to bring my water bottle and towel; I had to keep hitting pause to run to the water fountain!  Thank goodness I brought my i-pod though, that is the only explanation I have for the amount I was able to rock it out today 🙂  I decided to be kind to my foot and do 2minutes of jogging followed by 1minute of walking.  My end stats –

770calories / 1hour 10minutes / 6miles

Holy cow!  My foot actually didn’t hurt that bad, after 10minutes or so I think it just went numb.  However, something is wrong with my running shoe because the other side of my foot was killing me.  Look what happened to my foot:

I don’t know what the deal is but I’m going to look into new shoes, stat!

  14. “Girls Dem Sugar” Beenie Man & Mya
  15. “Romie” Beenie Man
  16. “Taking Over” Sizzla

I took a 30minute break from my to-do’s to guzzle 3 big glasses of water and then it was back to business.  After a quick shower I ate a small sliced apple while studied.

Then I headed to school to do more studying.  The parking is really bad so I try to get to school before 4 for my 5o’clock class.  I did a lot of zoning out, but I got a little bit learned.  I also had a great snack.

Divine Foods sent me a HUGE box of Prana and Boomi bars the other day and I seriously couldn’t be more grateful.  Pistachio Pineapple was tasty tasty.

My first quiz seemed pretty easy, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I did well.  We had our first lab after that; I wasn’t thrilled about the goggles but at least it was easy.

We were finding the volume of an unknown sample, which was quick, but I stayed until 9 to work on the post-work.  I am 95% done for next week!

I didn’t get home until 9:30 and it was time for dinner!

I jazzed up my leftover leftoversfrom Wednesday’s lunch with a little bit of chipotle oil and some wasabi sesame seeds.

I loved this meal (even with double leftovers), I will be using lasagna noodles more often.

Tomorrow morning I am heading to school with Adam and then in the afternoon we are packing up and driving to Ohio to visit my brother-in-law.  I’m not sure when I’ll post, it will be a busy day.  See you soon!

Have you had any firsts this week?
