Avatar.


Last Friday, Amanda and I had our usual pizza and coffee date after work. It’s become a great tradition and a wonderful way to end our week. Now that our schedule is allowing us to get off work at a decent hour, we can enjoy dinners together, especially ones on Friday night; a great way to kick off the weekend! After pizza, I headed over to Johnny’s house to hang out.

On Saturday, I watched “Avatar” for my first time. I had heard a lot about it, but had just never gotten around to watching it myself. When Johnny found this out, he said we HAD to watch it. So we did. It was really good!! I have to admit that I was pretty skeptical about seeing it at first because I had heard mixed reviews on it. However, I kept an open mind, and turns out-I love it!

On Sunday, we hung out with Tommy for a little bit, and then Johnny and I went to my part of town. (Technically, it’s about a ten-minute taxi ride, but it still seems so far…) We wanted to go running, so we went to that Reservoir where I normally run by myself. I wanted to introduce him to it. He had never run long distance before, so we were just going to see how it went. We changed at my place and headed out. The total running time is 11K, and I told him we could stop at any time. He told me to set the pace, and we just ran. We didn’t stop running until we were back home. WE DID IT!! It was Johnny’s first ever 11K. It was a big deal. After that, we grabbed some dinner and headed back to his part of town.

This week has been crazy to say the least. We’re still in the middle of our Intensives schedule, which I quickly found out that I don’t really prefer at all. It’s longer hours, more classes, and different textbooks. I’m still enjoying the classes as usual, but I’ll definitely be happy when we get back to our normal schedule again. :)

The weather is still freezing cold, but it hasn't snowed much since Christmas. Wearing leggings or tights underneath my jeans has become a necessity because of the chilly wind. I'm not really a cold weather kinda girl, so I'm ready for this to come and go...I've heard this hangs around until about March. Oh well, perhaps that will make me appreciate the warm weather so much more! :)
