I really like road biking. Linda and I went up to Wakefield yesterday and then a little past to loop back and walk up and down Main St. We grabbed lunch at Phil's- I will never understand people's obsession with that place. The food sucks, the people are grouchy, and the place looks like it may either fall down around you or engulf you in a grease fire.

Either way, I went on mapmyride.com and mapped it out- 7.3 miles! Not bad for a first time since before I got my license! LoL Today I went for just about 7 miles, probably, but it was down by the ocean so the wind was whipping in my face the whole way back! I have wind-burn on my cheeks and nose! LoL That seriously added some resistance to hte exercise and man, you should've seen me puffing on the last 1/4 mile leg. Funny, really.

I'm about halfway through revising my med school essay-- it's a lot harder than you'd think! But SB gave me the comment I was looking for- it sounds like I'm talking to them, not just writing an essay I think they'd like to hear. That's good because I want them to know who I am, what I stand for, how I've grown and how that growing has led to this conclusion. This has been a growing process, as any decision as large and all-encompassing as getting your MD degree should be. So I guess I'm on the right track, just need to get those last two paragraphs down.
