hey,

I had 4 tests this week so I am having a nice relaxing weekend after a week of intense study!!

Well as you can see this morning me and Emily did the Krispy Kreme challenge...you have to run 2 miles from the Bell Tower to the store...eat 12 donuts and then run all the way back. But dont worry, you dont have to eat all the donuts! We just ate one and took the others with us :P

But I am so unfit though that 4 miles was a little much! But Emily wouldnt let me stop...so yes I ran all the way! I am very tired now :P It was way too early in the morning for that amount of exercise! But it was all in the name of charity, this year they raised over 35,000 dollars apparently!

some people though take it a little too seriously, they train and everything! some people are so good they are able to do it in about half an hour! And they eat all 12 donuts :P Which is way too disgusting! Emily and I had just sat down and the guy next to us threw up, haha it was so gross!!! But again, we have to do everything, we are only here for a year! It was an experience though and I have to say alot of people wont look at Krispy Kremes for awhile!! There were over 5000 runners this year so alot of people particpate, its a NC state tradition!

This afternoon we decided to take a trip to downtown Raleigh. There are heaps of free museums and such so we thought we better do it before we leave! The museums were really nice actually, we visited the Natural science museum and the history one. since Raleigh is the capital of NC all the government buildings are located here. Normally the parts of town that we have been too have not been that nice but once you get away from the bus station its nice and clean. its not oo busy but still worth atleast a visit. We had a nice early dinner and then made our way back to campus.
