Sunday Night

14 May 2007 by kristarella

Watching Buffy, the final episode of season 4, I have realised something that I never have before. Funny, since I’ve seen it so many times.

Tuesday+Mac

8 May 2007 by kristarella

In Proteins this week I wound up with 44g of protein instead of 5. The good news is: I found where I went wrong in the calculations, I was an order of magnitude (10x) out on one thing. The bad news is: I suck! After bagging out a company for not being able to do […]

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.
