It's been a little while but I've been busy. I've been home for 8 days and I've sailed 4 of them and I'm planning on trying to get on the water as much as I can. I competed in the Colonial Cup this weekend and it wasn't easy. There was some tough competition and conditions. Christian and I hadn't sailed a Snipe together before so there was little learning curve but we really had fun. We ended up tied for 5th but lost the tiebreaker and go 6th. We were just happy to be on the water honestly.
Oh I've found some new running buddies which is nice. I really prefer to run with friends, I think it keeps me more motivated to keep going. I also enjoyed biking with Madeline so much that we bought matching bike shorts... I know I only went once and now I feel ready to conquer the world on my mom's bike and my 7 year old helmet.
French is going well so far. We had a quiz and we have our first test tomorrow, I think I'll do fine. I try to do my homework ahead of time so that I don't have to worry about it, so far, so good. I really don't like doing homework. I mean I don't know anyone who does but I especially don't.
My favorite holiday is coming up, 4th of July! I'm sad the fireworks were cancelled but I still love the day and I'm looking forward to the socially distanced festivities. I have this cute romper that I ordered that's coincidentally patriotic so I guess I'll wear that. I got in on sale for only $20. I need to slow down my online shopping habits for sure.
I didn't really workout this weekend but I did go sailing. Yesterday was definitely harder than we both expected because it was windy. I was kind of sore today. I guess my sailing muscles are out of shape lol. My legs are pretty sunburned too but that's okay, it was my first long weekend of sailing in awhile. College sailing is nice because you get little breaks but that's not a thing in normal sailing.
This week is looking pretty similar to last week. I'm going to sail whatever weeknights that I can and run and workout. I'm enjoying it, I have a little schedule that I like sticking to. I've been making homemade acai bowls and our coffee maker can make iced coffee which is super neat. I still would love a nice bowl from Rutabaga but I understand that there's no point when I can make it myself at home for much cheaper. This does remind me that I need to eat my strawberries and raspberries so they don't go bad!
I kind of thought that I'd have more to say because I haven't written in awhile but I actually just do very similar things every day and I love it. I'm sure there'll be times when I'm bored eventually but right now I'm doing well. I'm happy to be with my friends from home and my sailing friends. Alright... I'll try to blog more frequently! Oh yeah, I'll be doing a lot more keeping in touch with my school friends because some of them will be stuck in quarantine by themselves for two weeks which means that I'll call and check in because I feel badly for them. Okay now that's all, goodnight! Hope everyone's safe.
