The Cold and The Color Run

Why is it so cold outside all the time? I think feeling cold is one of the worst feelings ever. It's all bad when I'm chilly. I've never liked it ever since I was a little kid. When I'm cold, I can't focus because I'm shivering too much, my body gets all tense and I get quiet because I clench my jaw. I was ranting about  this to one of my friends in my carpool today because it was misting outside and I was wearing cuffed khaki ankle jeans and a jacket with no hood. I am so glad I always have my Giants snuggie to cuddle with. I think it's made out of fleece. Why does fleece keep people so warm?! The mysteries of life.

BELOVED WARM GIANTS SNUGGIE

Speaking of life, IT IS AWESOME. I finally got into the swing of my semester schedule and I love it. I actually like going to school. I like sitting in class and learning things. I haven't been this excited about school in a long time. I raise my hand in class now and ask/answer questions. This is a huge step for me considering I've always had anxiety about speaking in classroom environments. I've incorporated going to my school library and getting work done into my weekly schedule now. I get out of class, I walk to the library, I rent a laptop, I sit down in a comfy chair and I GET SHIT DONE. Yes sir. I ain't playin'!

I recently did a 5k marathon called The Color Run and it was one the best experiences I've ever had in my life. What blew my mind (other than the amazingly fun color throwing) was that at the finish line of the 5k, there's a music concert where everyone throws colors at each other and dances their ass off. It was like running to a concert. WHAT. I couldn't contain my excitement so I ran around with a bag of color throwing handfuls of it on anyone I saw. And their response? "THANK YOU." You bet your ass I'll be there again next year.
