Better Late Than Never
Jul. 23rd, 2003 11:24 amIt has been brought to my attention by skindeeply that I've been remiss in my updating duties, so let's see what I can do.
I'm healing up well from my hysto, and I think I'm almost right as rain. I gone back to fencing and I'm starting to lift weights this week. I'm still spotting a bit...but I suppose that is to be expected.
My roommate wanted to talk. Our lease is up Sep. 1. He felt that we don't talk enough, it's too stressful for him. So, I'm moving out. Which is fine with me, since I find him really offensive. Now I've got to find a place to live. I'm looking for a studio or a 1 bedroom, hopefully on the Westside.
I went to an event and I did really well. I made it to the 4th round of the tourney. I did die in the end, but I did better than I have done before. After the official fighting, I tried out fighting with the heavier rapier blade and that was fun...but oh was it tiring. I'll have to buy one. Anyway, Aliskye was made a court Baroness! That rocks on toast...she totally deserves it. She also carried my favor into battle. It was her first tournament and the first time anyone has fought for me. That was an honor.
I have so much to do. Read. Write. Spanish. I just need to get on the ball and go! Part of me feels like I don't have that much time left of summer. Not to get everything done that I need/want to get done. But I don't think that's actually true. But no more sleeping late for me! School work-wise, I have to write my dissertation proposal, turn two (possibly three) articles into something publishable, prepare a conference paper (possibly two), do some research for Mitchell, prepare applications for the Fullbright and DAAD, and get my Spanish up to par enough to pass my last language exam. On top of that, I want to go to fighter practice more often, I want to sew some garb, I want to learn to bodyboard, I want to lift lots of weights. I really need to practice my instruments and get back those skills. I'd like to take boxing lessons, but I'm sure I won't have the time. All of that, and I have to move. But I'm looking forward to the summer. I think it will be one of my best. When I think about all the stuff I have to do...all of it excites me. I suppose that makes me a big geek, huh? The one thing that is stressing me out is that I haven't been able to really start yet, because everyday it seems like I'm spending the entire day hanging with people. And I like hanging with people...I just want want some time to get my life together too.
Oh! Ani lent me two books, Arnolds Bodybuilding Encyclopedia and a book on Foil Fencing. That is the coolest thing ever!
