          I am overloaded with school work because my exams are coming up so I am still keeping the mileage down, but as soon as July hits, the mileage is going to go up up up!!!  Although, I am really pumped that for over 2 months, I kept my mileage between 50 and 65, which isn't much, but with as busy as I am, it is really good.  I am going to try to NOT take on as much next semester…But I always say it, and yet, I find myself saying yes to jobs offered (like tutoring someone or giving private English lessons etc…)  I do get enough rest though, I make sure I get 8-9 hours a night so my body is always rested so I don't break my body down.
