The Hell that is School/Things I recommend

So this is probably more of a venting post....but I can't understand why I (or we) pay colleges large amounts of money to do anything BUT teach you. UGH! My business law class is ridiculous.....please tell me how giving your students take home test every week and lectures that include talking about how to fill in a scantron sheet is really going to teach me about business law. Why do I need a freakin teacher when all he does is make us do take home test and learn about scantrons. All I feel like I am learning right now is how to open a book and find an answer....whoop-di-freakin-do!!!!!!!!

Anyways, besides that life is pretty much the same. I did however find out that my mom and I are going to an Oprah taping October 9th and then to Wicked performance on October 10th! My mom just turned 40 years old today in fact so its our little get-away for her birthday. I am super excited to go to Chicago I think we will have a great time!

We are both just working hard and pretty much living for the weekends :) I tried Sushi for my first time the other day and it was fabulous! I recommend going to Sekai Sushi on Gilbert and Southern wonderful service and food!

I also recently had a personal trainer for about 6 weeks, it was a great deal about 6 session for $75-$100 at Golds Gym. I highly recommend getting a personal trainer even if its for just one or two sessions, they really help you to better understand weights and how they can help you loose weight and tone up.

I am also training for the Rock N Roll marathon on January 18th! If anyone wants to join my training it "officially" starts next week, but I have been working on it for the last 3 weeks! Its great cause tyler got some rollerblades and he skates with me on my long runs, thats wonderful quality time together :)

Thats it for now, hope you all are doing well!!

Careena, you should come run with us! We're running the Ragnar Relay 2010. It's a crazy 181 mile relay race across Arizona. And why wouldn't you want to run with the coolest bunch of idiots like us? :)
