Precognitive?

9 June 2007 by kristarella

1 June 2007 by kristarella

I met with Mike on Wednesday to see if he’d let me do the lab project next semester. He was somewhat reluctant since I have a 73.75 average in BABS course, not the required 75. He said to go ahead and find a supervisor and he would wait to make a decision until he’d talked […]

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
