We actually got snowed on today in Colorado Springs! As much as I've been raving about the weather here, the mountains sure add an element of unpredictability and constant change. The extra bummer about the cold day was that my class did an outdoor run at 7am this morning and it was downright painful at times. A couple students didn't come to class later in the day because they weren't feeling well from the frozen run. Some of these people are from the south and have never even seen snow before, so it was probably even harder on them. I guess it was more like freezing rain and hail coming down while we ran... the snow came later. None of it accumulated to the ground, but left a nice dusting on the mountains. It was actually pretty once I was able to enjoy it from a warm room through the window later on.
I've been loving school so far! It's actually been better than I expected, and my expectations were pretty high. Hopefully I can keep up with my reading. I'm not used to reading 8 books at a time, and needing to absorb them in a three month time frame. Sometimes I wish I could just plug the cord into my head (like in The Matrix) and just upload the information into my brain... that would be so much easier :)

They make you run? Is this worship boot camp or what? ;)
Not only do they make us run, we also have a checklist of physical activy stuff to accomplish every week. AND, we get graded on it. They push the "body is a temple" thing, which is good for me since my temple was beginning to crumble:)
