Does running make you tired?

Yesterday I ran the farthest that I had ever ran. 5 MILES! I was pretty excited to know that I could actually do it. Today was a lighter day of running which was only 3 miles. I also worked an eight hour day and I still can't sleep. I can't seem to clear my head however, I am not worried about anything. I am not sure what is going on with me. I am tired during the day but wide awake at night. Being a night owl wouldn't be so bad if I had someone to stay up late with... but that is not the case. I am actually sitting here alone because my boyfriend has no problem falling asleep. He can literally fall a sleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. This is just another example that life is NOT FAIR.

Until next time.. Try to have a good night's sleep.

Waiting Games..

The waiting game has officially started. I am waiting on my new job in Coventry to send me my contract. This contract is very important because it includes their offer and all the benefits.. I was not to worried about it until I received a phone call this morning from another Social Worker who has also been offered a job in Coventry. She seemed worried that they have not gotten back to us yet. I assured her that it will be fine and we will know something soon. As I heard the confident words of encouragement coming out of my mouth I began questioning what I was saying. Who is to know when they will actually get back to us?? I sure don't. I am just crossing my fingers that it will be in the next 45 days... yes, 45 days. That is when I will officially have a Masters Degree and be done with school (forever??). Meanwhile.. I will be waiting or should I say running?? I better get to the track because training for a 10-k has proved to be difficult.

Who is going with me... THE BIG QUESTION

My boyfriend and I currently live together and I have really enjoyed this past year. We have had so much fun doing pretty much everything together. We have also learned so much about each other and it is scary to think he might not be moving with me. We have a lot of decisions to make in the next couple months and neither of us knows what to do. Should he leave his job here and more across the world with me or should we have a super long distance relationship? Both are going to be stressful decisions... YIKES! I wasn't prepared for this..

Good News

On Tuesday, I received an email in response to an interview I had the previous week. In this email I was offered a job! This job could potentially change my life forever since it is a job in England. It is really far away from my hometown or the city I am currently living in now. With this great news came several different emotions. I am shocked, excited, and nervous all at the same time. Even though it is now days later I am still experiencing those same feelings. I am also beginning to be slightly overwhelmed because the search for an apartment/ flat is now on!

Most of my friends and family members are extremely excited for me which makes this process a little less scary...
