a cold front has come through and brought chilly weather again, though the sun has done a good job of staying out. : )
let’s see, what is there to report about today… well first, the combination of bursar’s office and financial aid frustrated me to the point of tears. i have been trying to get my accounts settled for three weeks now, with little success. hopefully i have things almost cleared up though. second, i made strawberry shortcake for dessert at breakers tonight, and it was quite a hit. i had never made it before, and was pleased with the way it turned out. the cake was a bit too crumbly, but that was easily disguised with whipped cream and strawberries. heh. i am so tricky.
last night i went running and found a pretty good route that is almost exactly a 5k. i think it’s just a bit short–maybe by half a tenth of a mile or something. not much. in any case, it is the perfect length for a “normal” nightly run, so that made me happy. now i have good routes that are 2.2, 2.5, 3.1, 3.4 and 4.2 miles. i can pretty much pick and choose, depending on how i feel.
jen has decided to come to stanford next year! i’m excited for her, and glad that she was able to make a decision. i know that will relieve some of the stress she was feeling.
i forgot to mention one of the coolest parts of surfing on saturday–we saw a dolphin! a real, live dolphin. it was jumping through the waves about 100 feet away. very cool.
as if this diary entry isn’t jumpy enough. time to go.
