Okay, so first two days of fresher's week were pretty lame really. I mean it was cool seeing Carmel and others and just hanging out round uni again but meh, I'm hoping tomorrow and Thursday will be much better ( Read more... )

Well I was gonna do a fairly long entry but I don't have the energy now after Kickboxing. Plus I think I've dislocated my elbow or something. Well probably not dislocated it but it hurts like hell when I move it.

Tonight I relived the fun hell experience that was the orange sash grading. I was one of the very few senior grades that turned up and ( Read more... )

Yesterday's exam went better than I expected, though I won't know if that is actually true or not till I get my results, lol, but I feel pretty okay about it. Was totally knackered while I was doing it though as I hardly sept a wink the night before cos I ached all over and couldn't find a comfortable sleeping position. I hung out at home with ( Read more... )

Time for an entry about the last couple of days. Was gonna do it last night but was ill and slept from 9pm to 5am and then was ill for most of today. Sooo not fun >.Anyways, Friday evening I went round Carmel's and we hung out, ate pizza and stuff until 8pm. We then met Andrew, Owen and (a bit later) Matt in the Rampant Lion pub. We stayed there ( Read more... )

So another entry about kickboxing, but they are definitely more diverse at the moment. It's probably cos we don't have a grading this term, so we can do some random stuff, heheh ( Read more... )

Had a pretty good Kickboxing session tonight. Purple-belt Chris took most the session for our little newbie yellow sash group cos he's practising teaching practical sessions. He did a fairly simple warm-up, wasn't as ruthless as Stuart, haha. Then Stuart did some recap work with us. We did the Kung Fu walks and kicks (I totally didn't get the ( Read more... )

Judging by the Kickboxing session I had tonight, I would say Stuart got out the wrong side of bed when he got up, lol ( Read more... )

Today I have...

Secured a dissertation tutor. This takes a load off my mind. I'm seeing her tomorrow at 5pm to get her to sign the paperwork that I'll have to give in Friday morning. I get to read World War 1 fiction over the summer. Reminds me of 2003 when I had to do the same ready for A Level English, lol. So yay, that is sorted.

Made rock ( Read more... )

I'm meant to be writing my short story for prose but urgh! I can't focus on it. No point writing if I'm only gonna be writing shite. I'm stressing out too much. I got my grading in two days. The new form is uber long and complicated and I'll never get it right in time. I have to practice all day tomorrow to get it down. Urgh! Why did they have to ( Read more... )

I just found out tonight that it has been decided we'll do our grading this term, not next term like it should have been. Apparently Chris thought we might as well get it out the way with. So now I have to grade for my fucking yellow belt (fifth grade in Chinese Kickboxing, btw) in two weeks time! I've only just fully learnt the toughest form/walk ( Read more... )
