but i feel alright when you smile

My friend Alex and i have made a pact, signed in blood when the clock struck the witching hour.

not really, but we did decide to work out together.

even though he is all the way at UT Tyler and little old me is three hours away at Baylor we have both agreed to run a mile on mondays, wednesdays, and fridays. well I went into this with the attitude of "oh 1 mile pahhhleeeeaasseee, i ran that sophomore year in like 6 minutes. plus im a pretty skinny guy so im in shape AND i play water polo."

boy was i wrong.

apparently being skinny doesnt mean you are in shape seeing as it took me 10 minutes to run a mile on an indoor track on Monday. i was dying on the eighth lap and considered walking the final lap, but decided on a slow jog.

today i ran it again and did it in 9 minutes. i only ran it in 9 by pushing myself since alex ran his mile on monday in 9 minutes and i didnt want to get shown up again (that and i had incorrectly added how long i had been running and thought i was at 10 minutes and didnt want to drift over into taking 11 minutes, but that's beside the point)

This morning at like 8 o clock (and tuesday morning) some kid has been jump roping outside of my dorm room door. see, on the doors in my dorm, we have these air conditioning vents at the bottom and you can literally hear everything that goes on outside in the hall, INCLUDING a guy jumping rope for 5 minutes. i woke up to the sound of THWACK THWACK THWACK over and over, then he sneezed like 8 times in a row. i would have gotten up to see who it was but i was far too tired.

internet, i know you have been waiting anxiously for the third installment of brians online mix tape. fear not, i made the album art tonight and already have the track listing. "whats the theme this time brian?" you ask. well i cant just spoil the surprise can i? trust me, its good and i thought about it all day today what songs would make the cut and i have made my decisions.

wait its already the fifteenth technically! o well its still the fourteenth in my mind.

Haha, we're doing that work out thing too. Except not the running part.

Yay for illegally downloaded mixtapes!
