Pork and Beans: Weezer

So it's Cinco de Mayo and it's GORGEOUS outside!!! I went on the swings earlier and laid on the hill to watch the lacrosse game. Castleton won again!!! 17-7. Not too shabby, eh?

In addition, I just ate one of the best chocolate bars I've ever had in my life. It's called a Crunchie bar and it is DELICIOUS! It's this brilliant little bar of crystallized honey on the inside and chocolate on the outside! So yummy. And it's an English chocolate bar. Which is really, really cool.

On another awesome note, I have some pretty incredible news. The other day I was going for my run on the rail trail, just like any other day. It was one of the best, worst, and most peculiar runs of my life! What was so bad? It started hailing while I was running! I had already been about three miles in and it was HAILING. Small hail, that's for sure. Really teensy. Almost more like ice rain. But still... not exactly running weather. Especially when you're wearing a tee shirt and sweatpants. No good. But there was one moment when I was first starting when I hit the farm and it was right near the stream. It got nice and warm and sunny. Felt like I was in a movie! And then when I was running back, freezing and numb through the stormy, cold weather, the cross country track coach caught up with me. He asked who I was. I told him, because I recognized him as a professor from the psychology department. And he offered me a spot on the cross country team! He said I'd probably place 7th or 8th on the team, and that by my senior year I'd probably be in good shape for first! I was pretty much amazed, baffled, and dumbfounded by this event. It's not every day I have an awesome athletic opportunity like this, seeing as how I'm not exactly the most athletic person in the world. In fact, I'm the epitome of a geek with my comic books, musical history, and science major! So this is really exciting for me. I think in time I may actually join the team! I just really, really need to keep up with this running so I can get into good shape!

It's amazing how such great things can come from such LAME scenarios.
