I apparently am not good at keeping up with blogging..

So brief recap of the past 2 months that I have absolutely failed at blogging.

1) I finished my internship at Mac...was said to leave...and am now back at ISU.
2) I have continued running and am now up to 8 mile long runs...I officially registered for the Des Moines marathon
3) I now have my two cats (Olive and Butler) living in my apartment with me.
4) I am working on learning how to cook.
5) I finished the application process, had two interviews, and have been nominated (though not in writing) for the Peace Corps departing June of 2011 doing something related to education.


These five things pretty much everything that I have missed blogging about and pretty accurately describe what my future blog posts are likely to be about.
