Sean and I went to Saint Augustine, Florida this weekend for a second honeymoon - well, really our first!. It was a wonderful trip. :-) I love going to historical places and this was definitely full of thing to see. We walked around a lot, went to the Castillo de San Marcos, the Mission of Nombre de Dios and the Jacksonville Zoo. The condo we stayed in had a view of the ocean and it was a short walk to the beach. It's so beautiful there and I hope to go back!

I think I'm going to buy some textbooks! Just because I can't go to school yet doesn't mean I can't begin prepping for some of the more challenging classes. Also, I'm still kind of exploring what I want to do, so I think that will help me be more committed to school when the time does arrive.

I'll probably end up doing nursing, but I'm just going through all my options again. Ultimately I want something science related. I just kinda realized that grad school isn't as far away as I previously thought (or at least, is possible sooner) so I'm trying not to limit myself. Granted, a lot of this depends on if Sean makes the air force a career or not. I'll need to stick to something more flexible if he does. I've just really got an itch to go for a highly educated career route and I'm sooo anxious to get started! Nursing is still a very good choice though because if I get my B.S. in that, I can still have a lot of grad school options open to me. Physical therapist, pharmacist, certified nurse midwife and a few others catch my interest. Those each require 3-4 years of grad school. However, I'm also looking at some science careers that aren't on the medical side of things. It's kind of a fresh viewpoint for me even if I think I'll still end up in a medical career. So yeah, I'm going to start brushing up on algebra and going through some biology and anatomy textbooks!

I'm doing well with my running! I ran 3 miles outside yesterday in 27 minutes. Today I ran 6 intervals and kicked those up to 9mph. I was doing 6.7 (2 minutes) to 8.2-8.5 )1 minute), but today I did 7 and 9. Woo woo! I've really just tried to kick myself into gear. It seems that every time I fall into a rut, I never push myself past where I'd previously been. That ends NOW. Time to run harder, faster and longer and truly challenge myself. I'm tired of giving myself permission to slack off!
