MFCs was alright I suppose. I finished 17th in individuals and was the second highest club fencer (Big Red won). On Sunday, I think the bouts I lost were due mainly because of mental issues. I dropped some stupid ones to nerves and being jumpy. We beat Lawrence first, and crashed and burned against Chicago and Wisconsin, which was frustrating ( Read more... )

It doesn't even matter now. No matter what I do, no one will think it was my decision. I will have been influenced by someone else. And I will piss someone off (which I am almost at peace with). But I don't feel good about this either way. I need to toughen up and remember that in two months, none of this will matter. Why did she have to go ( Read more... )

Shit.

I am too impressionable. Easy to convince one way or another.

I don't know if this solution is good anymore.

1. Schmitter this weekend was pretty good, I tied for third in women's epee and one-touch epee, but I have mixed feelings about mixed. I know I had a hard pool, but I thought I was fencing decently well and I had poor results. I'm not sure about that tournament ( Read more... )

I'm really glad I fenced yesterday instead of going to work. I tied for third in mixed epee and got my E08, finally! And the bout I lost to Chris was a good one. I also decided to fence sabre for the hell of it, and placed second! In the final bout I was fencing a guy that is also an epee fencer, so someone from MSU asked the director if he had ( Read more... )

I think my classes this semester will be the end of me. For real. They just seem so intense right now and with all the fencing stuff and extra work for book rush it feels like too much. Three of my classes have intense research papers and I have two intro papers due tomorrow! I have a break in my day now since my stats lab was super easy and I ( Read more... )

Christmas was good. I have lots of things to make still and a decent gap in work to do it. I still am working on finding a date to make candy and time to go fence at UFO. I can't believe we have a tournament the first weekend back ( Read more... )

I am so happy right now!

I can't believe my grades, I made cookies with Justin for about 4 hours yesterday (and some of them are Hanukkah shapes!), I went sledding and there is candy to be made. I don't even mind that much that I have to go work at the mall. Do classes have to start again?

I was studying last night until about 1:20ish this morning and I figured I'd be tired when I had to get up for my 7:45 final, but I could finish my Monster and be alright. Somehow, I managed to turn off my phone alarms, two of them, without remembering that I did it. For reasons I don't know but am grateful for, my roommate woke up randomly and ( Read more... )

I feel like a bad person for just leaving. I love you Cam, and if you want to come make candy at my house over break I'll come get you. :)
