I have read three books so far for my resolution to read 50. I read the Hunger Games Trilogy, which I was very much against reading. The first book ended up being pretty cheap on my nook so I bought it, and as much as I wanted to hate it, I ended up loving it. I flew through the first two pretty quickly, but the third was tough to get through. I found myself hating the main character, Katniss, because she was whiny and generally just dumb. But I really got attached to Peeta's character and became more interested in his fate than hers. Overall, it's a pretty good series and I would recommend it to anyone. As a matter of fact, Josh is reading it as we speak. He started last night before bed, and when I woke up this morning he was reading it again. He's not much of a fiction fan, so if he is enjoying it, it must be okay.
My running is getting easier. I was able to run .6 miles at intervals. I kinda gave up on the couch to 5k thing because it is too difficult to do on the treadmill and I am using my own method counting distance instead of time. Slowly I will take the walking out by increasing my running distance and decreasing my walking distance. I can't wait to get back to school and the rec center though where I have more control over my environment.
Next Friday Josh and I and two of our friends are going to Painting with a Twist for my birthday. I'm really excited to do something fun like this for my birthday since usually it falls in the middle of TMEA and I don't really get to do anything fun. I'll be sure to post pictures of our finished products in next weeks edition. I love this place!
Until next time!
