Standard

Oh yeah. So I didn’t qualify, in case you were wondering. I managed to run worse in the hurdles, the worst time I have run yet this season. I didn’t do terribly in the 55 m dash, a middle-of-the-road time, which baffles me because I should have run great with the competition that I had. I did end up running my best indoor time ever in the 200 m, (indoor, mind you) but it’s still not the greatest. Why oh why didn’t I qualify?

Rima ten’ta! Rima arauka!

That’s Elvish (as in Elves, not Elvis) for those of you who don’t know. It means “run for it, run faster!” Well, actually, araauka means “swift”, so I’m not sure if I should be saying arauka or araukan to indicate swiftly. Hmmm. And why is it that I will gladly take time out of my day to learn Elvish, but not study for the GRE? Ahh, the mysteries of life.
