So as many of you know. I am getting back into running. In fact, that's the reason I haven't blogged in a while. I am so into it that I have to do it every couple of days and push myself everyday to see how far I can go, or how fast I can run a preset distance.
So far, my record in distance is 8 miles and my record in time is 6 miles in 40 minutes and 24 seconds. Which isn't bad, but I want to go farther and faster.
This is also a good time for me to think. Usually about the future. What it has in store for me.
Will I end up becoming law enforcement...a politician? Will I meet the woman of my dreams..and if so, will I be able to hold onto her?
All in all, it is a great time for me to do all the metaphorical thinking as well. Not too many people like me to talk about politics, not because of the fact that it's boring, but because I tend to analyze everything about them. From the image of the person, to the image of their background, to the image behind the person, everything. But then again, I was taught to do that. Ask anyone who studied politics at FSU, we're taught to be very analytical about everything. It kind of sucks sometimes.
Besides my trying to become a future Ironman contestant, I am just working and studying my butt off. What am I studying you ask? Well Monday I actually have my Florida Law Enforcement test. The first step to becoming a Police Officer in the State of Florida. I'm kind of nervous, but everyone has told me thus far that it will be easy and that I just need to skim through everything a couple of times and I should be fine. Of course to me, that means studying my butt off for the past couple of weeks and making sure that I have as much memorized as humanly possible.
I'm also trying to be a better Christian. More pure at heart and more cautious about what I say and what I do, because I know that I am no longer representing myself, I am representing Christ. I know that I must be doing something right when my co-workers actually asked if I wanted to hear a dirty joke and I said no. It felt kind of awesome, cause I didn't even think about it.
Right now, I am loving my life. I'm working to rebuild everything, but every morning I wake up knowing that there is something in store for me. I can do it.
