So far, this semester is going well. Conveniently enough, I haven't had any real work due. Do you smell an impending disaster? Because I do.
I'm not sure if running will ever be something that I love, but it's something that I've come to enjoy. Sometimes. Running 2.5+ miles and not keeling over doesn't seem like much of an accomplishment now, but 6+ weeks ago, it might have seemed like one. I have 3 more weeks of the 5k training, and then I'm going to start working towards a 10k. I called my little brother up to get running advice (and to apologize for anything I've done in the past year to hurt him, Yom Kippur-style), and he was really happy to give me advice. Basically, running is the only thing that I am doing consistently that I am not required to do. Because doing my class reading isn't required.
This year, I'm doing work study at the JTS library, because I'm getting a scholarship from the school. Shelving books is kind of zen-like, when I'm left alone at it. It's not something I would willingly do otherwise, but it's really not that bad.
This year, I'm also an assistant teacher in a special needs class at the Hebrew school. Or, as Meir, the head teacher and most adorable old man I have ever met, says, I am his co-teacher. I really enjoy the work. I have no desire to go into education, but I do look forward to going to work on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. It's nice.
Marching band is going pretty much the same way it always has, except that now I'm one of the older people, which I get a kick out of. Also, I'm the "Real Sarah", which I find entertaining.
Charline and I are working on a web show. It will be awesome and immature and inappropriate. Whee! We have most of the rough draft of episode 1 done. I'd love to finish the script, polish it, and film the episode by the end of the month. This will involve casting willing friends/other people to be in the show, as well as acquiring old lady costumes for Charline and myself. We'll also have to actually find time to film it. We'll see how that goes.
I'm surprised/dismayed by my current relationship with alcohol. That is to say, I'm not really into it in the way I used to be. Either I'm more mature/health conscious now, or I'm just getting boring. It's probably the later.
This update has been very long overdue. My bad.
