i don't spend enough time on my bike and build blog

I've just been thinking a lot about bike and build because....

1.) I was freaking out for about a week that I would have $2,000 by the 21st, but since there are a couple of large checks from my amazing brothers in the mail I am set (as long as they get in in time :::crosses fingers:::)
2.) I am graduating in a few days (I have two finals and one take home final--which I think I am going to take to the beach and do.. I'll bike there, of course!) and I am going to have a lot more time on my hands to ride (hopefully at least 4 good rides a week and cross train other days) rather than sitting on the (though, I've found, relatively realistic feeling ones) stationary bikes at the gym while I try to finish reading the literature covered on my finals.
3.) I am going on a mini bike tour from San Francisco back down here. About 300 miles in 5 days!
4.) I need to get a physical.
5.) I need to make my sweat equitable.
6.) I went to a bike swap meet today... these kinds of things always amp me up.

So mainly, I need to graduate! This quarter has been crazy for me with 20 units, 3 jobs, bike and build, and an animal rights campaign I was working on. It is making me all the more happy to graduate and be done with it. Once I graduate I will have time to call doctors and find out if they take my insurance and see if there is any time I can volunteer for habitat. Hopefully, they have something going on at this time of year, otherwise I will have to get tricky and find somewhere else that needs my services.
