Wow! I had no idea it has been over a month since my last post! I will try to be better and MAYBE get some pictures in the next post.
So, I ran another 5k. You probably all forgot that I even ran my first 5k because it was so long ago. My time when I ran back in April was around 39 minutes. NOT GOOD! And I was paralyzed for a week afterward. This time I actually decided to train a little bit. I went to the gym every weeknight for 2 weeks, but the fastest I ever got was a 5k in 36 minutes. I am proud to say that on the actual race day I ran my 5k in 31 minutes and 42 seconds!!!!! Everyone in Daniel's family beat me (even though some of them didn't run the whole way) but I ran the entire time! It felt great to be able to run that far and still be able to walk afterward! My dad ran the race with me too. He caught up with me about halfway through and we ran together for the rest of the race. I am glad he caught up to me because I really wanted to quit. Running isn't easy! My dad really encouraged me to keep running and I really appreciate it!
I finished my externship at the pharmacy!! It was a really great experience. My "co-workers" were all awesome and I was sad to leave them but I am really excited to be graduated and qualified to get a job in my field. I have been applying to a bunch of places and actually had an interview this morning with a really great company in North Salt Lake. They asked me back for a 2nd interview next week!!! I really hope this works out!
My birthday was this month. I turned 23! I am so old now. My sister in law threw me a party, I went to lunch with my mother in law and sister in law, I got an AWESOME candle holder from my father in law, and got some birthday money to go shopping with! Thanks to everyone who helped make my birthday great!
And now, on to my pathetic story of the week!! (I'm really hoping that pathetic events don't really become a tradition, but whatever). So anyway, I went to Salt Lake on Wednesday to turn in my pharmacy technician license application and get my fingerprints done. We just got a new GPS and I thought, "perfect timing." Well, turns out that it doesn't matter if you have a GPS if you don't type the address in correctly! Luckily I only ended up a few blocks away from my actual destination. THEN.... I had to call Daniel to ask him how to use a parking meter. ME and my naive life!!!
Anyway, I am really excited for the next few weeks. I am going to visit my sister in law, Raquel, and her cute family this weekend. It will be so nice to get away! Then, over Halloween we are doing another reenactment just outside of Las Vegas. And hopefully I will get a technician job in the next few weeks!
Happy Halloween!!!
