District Day

Well, time is flying by and I am glad to know that yall are actually reading my blog! This morning I went for a run at 6:20, I'm not getting to work out or run as long as I want to but I have to make sure that I am getting in at least 5 1/2 hours of sleep each night so i'm not too tired to function in the next day. Word on the street is that the hardest part about Institute in Houston is that we have a severe lack of sleep but I'm sure I will be fine...I can sleep when I am dead. Funny thing, Pudge has already gotten some attention from my roommate...Emily said she put her bear into storage because she wasn't sure anyone else would bring theirs and I told here that Pudge goes everywhere with me and always as carry-on! She did make fun of him a little bit by calling him nappy but I think that it shows character! Today is District Day and since I am tentatively being placed in the Forth Worth School District (this isn't for sure but we have to be "flexible")... with that being said there were 50 of us, including some cute boys :), that made our way to the Fort Worth area to have lunch at "Cousin's BBQ. We had a chance to check out the downtown area and the cultural district and I surprisingly impressed by Fort Worth. Then we went to the Fort Worth School District and had some meeting and we were able to meet with some Principles which was nice because I got to practice some of my interviewing techniques. We didn't get back to SMU till 6:00 and then we had a group meeting at 6:15. We were broken up into group for dinner and went out with 2010 corps members. It was nice because they gave us a lot of advice about Institute and how to mentally prepare for the challenge. Dinner ran late until about 9;15 and then I had to go to my study group session until 11:00. At that point my brain was just fried and it is taking everything in me to stay awake and type this blog. Tomorrow I will have some free time which will be nice but I will need to use it to study. I think the test is going to be harder than I thought. So things are going well I'm just getting tired from the lack of sleep and missing being with you guys for Sarah's special weekend. I know it will be a lot of fun and I will be thinking about all of you! Miss you and love you!
Love,
Molly
