Welcome to my blogggg.....where you will not only hear a summarized version of my week but my failures, successes and plans for the upcoming week as well! So to begin, my week last week was quite ordinary. In CS2 we worked on the college project. My top three choices are Liberty, UNCW and the University of the Faroe Islands. Out of them all I'd have to say the most realistic is Liberty and my favorite college is University of the Faroe Islands. Unlike the rest of you out there, I want a different college experience than the average MACA kid who seems to have no other choice than Liberty, Cadarville or Pensacola. I'm aiming higher and hopefully one day when were all gathered at class reunion, I'll be the crazy one everyone says is currently traipsing around Iceland and couldn't make it.
Another memorable part of last week was running Bull Run this past weekend with the MACA cross country team. I think I may have developed several permanent injuries but have otherwise survived. Overall it was a very rewarding experience after hearing years of grief about a course I had never run, I'm relieved to finally say I've conquered the great Bull Run. The hill and dip everyone complains about is pretty unbearable but obviously not impossible. However the Chinese restaurant we went to afterwards was questionable....😝 Anyways my weekend was very interesting overall.
Challenges.... Well as I mentioned before Bull Run was definitely a 'challenge'....thank goodness I never have to run it again:)))) Another challenge was the physics test which I bombed but still survived! And the last challenge was chapel last Thursday. The praise team was fully unprepared and a wreck on Thrusday morning last week, luckily we were able to pull it together and face that challenge with the help of Mr.Buisch stepping in. Overall I think my challenges this week were all well met.
Successes.... Well I ran Bull Run, survived and got an ok time on the course. Also successfully turned in my monthly project on time;) Another success was narrowing down my college choices which I hadn't done up until now. Successfully wrote an in class essay for the Griff. And lastly I successfully ran five miles and touched the bridge on Twin Arch Road during cross country practice:D
My plans for the upcoming week are to continue coding in computer class. I've also been researching exchange students in the Faroe Islands and what it would take to get there, tuition, immigration and stuff. I'm planning to continue researching to see if its even possible for me to stay and study at their college since Denmark has so many restrictions concerning foreigners. They only let you go there if you have a residence permit and the only place that explains those is a site written in all Danish...Lastly I'm planning to go to the beach this weekend. Hopefully get a chance to relax and chill my only free weekend from cross country meets.🏄
