9 March 2007 by kristarella

I had a really good morning at uni this morning. We had an interesting and productive tutorial. It was really good to work through things in my mind and try to understand the things we’re doing. I was tired and I felt like crap but it was still excellent. Coming to work sucks! I didn’t […]

Easier the second time

5 March 2007 by kristarella

Wwwwwell, it’s been a successful day thus far. I got some sleep, although not very good sleep because it was too hot. I went to uni and enjoyed my lectures. I got some antihistamines that actually work (Claratyne sucks!). I did the supermarket shopping, although forgot mince beef and exercise books for lab. I went […]

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.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
