School is going ok.  I am working hard on my paper.  Getting lots of feed back from my Teacher assistant for class.  I need to build a stronger thesis.  Thats the most difficult thing to do for me. She said I did really good but have to make the paper a bit tighter.  Thats what I plan on doing this week end.  Building it up by explaning and elaborating more on the topics I am writing about.  The paper is on, Drug Trafficking in the US.  Im writing about the mexican cartels between us and mexico drug trade.  I wrote a paper for my associates degree on medicinal marijuana.  I got a 9 out of 10 and still averaging an A in class.  Can't believe next week is the last week.  I will be done on 8/5.  Next class is Intro to Anthropology.  I will put my update on DS when I start it, just like I did with this class so you will follow my progress.
I am really enjoying my new cell phone.  I got a Galaxy 4G touch screen.  I can get on facebook anytime.  Trying to see if DS has a app for the phone so I can check up on all of my friends on here without going on my regular tower computer.  Will look into it this week.
Good news, I recently spoke to Geno.  I saw him last saturday at a festival where I connected with his sister and met her down there.  I didn't think he was gonna be there because all he wants to do is go to the beach clubs.  I told him in order to hang out with me, he is to cool it with slamming those beers.  I don't care if he drinks, but drink responsibly around me.  I went to lunch with him on Sunday but that was all I did with him.  I had to stop at my cousins house and work on my school paper.  Of course, he went right to the beach club after I left him.  This is why I cannot think serious thoughts about the guy.  I cannot keep up with him and I really think we would kill eachother if we actually got together (he would probably become a raging alcoholic if he did live here - he claims that he doesn't party like he does up here in florida).  He leaves in about a week and a half (around 8/4 or 8/5).  Im just trying to keep a little distance from him.  Its a shame that things turned out this way.  But at least, I made my peace with Geno and life can go on.
That guy from Jamestown really didn't work out at all.  I told him how I felt but I don't think things are gonna pan out.  If someone really liked a person, they would at least communicate a few times a day to make that person feel special and thought of.  Its was almost like he was insulted when I told him what I was up to last  weekend.  Not a good sign.  he claims that someday he would come over and talk to me about things.  That ain't gonna happen anytime soon.  By then, it will be too late because I won't be attracted to him and lost all the excitement over him.  I am losing steam now.  I haven't texted him at all in the past 2 days (not a smiley face icon, nothing). tomorrow is his birthday - I might text him and wish him a happy birthday but won't expect a response from him.  at least I think of peoples birthdays.  Its a nice gesture.  this is not gonna be a 1 sided relationship where I do all the work communicating. Not gonna put up with it at all.  Makes me wonder what happened to his failed marraige?
Its so hard playing the field this summer.  So exhausting.  Tired of trying so hard, and I shouldn't either.  I think it might be best to be the cat lady and alone. 
On a happier note, I am doing lots of rollerblading at a nearby river park bike path.  Getting out there twice a week.  No running.  I am thinking of returning to Wed night runs at the sports store Sept 1 I did that 5K training run - which is free.  I need to build up my endurance by running 2 miles.  I might even start a 1/2 hr early than everyone else so I can finish at the right time.  I need to make sure I can at least run about 2-3 minute intervals when I return in the springtime with the 5K beginner group again.  I need a base. So, that means I will be hitting the treadmill at the gym again this winter.  For now, Im concentrating on the rollerblading thing.
Thats it for now.  I am on facebook more than I am on here.  If your interested in getting my full name and wanting to chat with me on there - let me know, send me a message and I will tell you how to become my friend on there.  I will be stopping by here about 2 times a week.  I have facebook on my phone so I check it often.  I just checked my app and couldn't locate DS on there.  oh well.
