Changes

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss

This past weekend was a busy one. I think I found a place to have the rehearsal dinner for my wedding at and found a place to live. My fiancĂ© and I will be moving out of our college houses and into our first place together in May. We have had some great times in our houses now but we realize that is getting to be that time to move on. It is a huge relief to have some big things out of the way before graduation. Time really is flying by and graduation will be here before we know it! I just got a letter in the mail from UNC telling me that it is that time to order my cap and gown. It is starting to sink in that I am graduating this year. Yay! Because time is flying by and I will only be in college a little longer, I am trying to take advantage of everything UNC has to offer. I think I mentioned in another blog that I had joined an intramural basketball team. We played our second game tonight and I had so much fun. We did not win but it is a great way to get in the gym and exercise. The recreation center offers lots of different fitness classes and I have been attending “core challenge” on Wednesday nights. It is another great form of exercise and kicks my butt! It is so awesome to have such a great recreation center that students can use for free. It is also free to UNC alumni so I have already been thinking how cool it would be to use it when we come back to Greeley to visit! Well, it past midnight so it is bedtime for me. Hope everyone has a great week!

Sports and then more sports...

If it weren't for the fact that the TV set and the refrigerator are so far apart, some of us wouldn't get any exercise at all. ~Joey Adams

The Super Bowl is over, February is here, and now it is intramural basketball time. I love the start of the year and all the great things it brings! One of my favorite things about college is intramural sports. I have played co-ed basketball, women’s basketball, and co-ed softball. These are just three of the many different options for intramural sports. Students of all different athletic abilities join in on the fun. I am on a team made up of seven girls and two of which who have never even played before. It should be an interesting season but lots of fun! We have our first game on Sunday so I will have to keep you updated. If you are reading this and wondering what other intramural sports we offer, you should check out the UNC website and look under the recreation center tab. Speaking of the recreation center, I have been going a lot lately trying to stay in shape. They offer a lot of different fitness classes but my favorite is Core Challenge. This class is awesome! I have been four times and I can already feel a difference. Because my life has been surrounded by sports and exercise lately, I wanted to include you.

Enjoy the rest of your week and the weekend!
