Christmas comes early

Finally got my single speed superfly frame and forks today :D Although it will be another week before I get it built up and ridden, it looks awesome and I can't wait to through a leg over it. Just got my fingers crossed my funding for uni comes through next year and I don't have to sell it :(

El Presidente

It would appear my peers are entirely lacking in sound judgement as I was voted in as the new president this week. I'm not entirely sure what I'm president of, officially its the Graduate Entry Medicine Society which is a bit of a vague term. There are social, welfare and charity secretaries as well as student reps, the general secretary and treasurer and im the president. Clear as mud really. The work has started already and I'm meant to meet the Graduate entry Education Director this week, *gulp*.

itchy

Starting to irritate more than just the people who are seen with me, the 'tache is starting to feel like a bristling caterpillar who resents my facial movements. Still at least I look like a tit*.




*more than usual

and breath

Feels like a long week, found out Mummy Bell* is ill and isn't going to get better plus I got my exam results and not entirely sure I've passed. For the multiple choice I did fine but for the essays (which were always going to be tough) I have passed overall *ahem* by 1 mark but apparently you can fail individual questions if you don't get a high enough average! So we had 5 questions each with 2 parts, those are worth 5 marks each and you need to get 6 marks in total per question and for 2 questions I averaged 4 :(

Plus the question I bombed and got 1 for** was written by my tutor so that'll be fun when I have my next meeting with him :(

Also turned out the pass mark was not 55% as I thought but 30 out of 50 ie 60%, I got 31 so bum across the line but only just.


*She didn't want to be called Gran when I was born and because she is my Mum's mum and her surname is Bell she became Mummy Bell :D

**An answer so bad a line was drawn through it and a note added to where I'd written the "baby stage" of development stating that this "was not part of Eriksen's model"
ie I'd made it up. Caught!

not again!

Yup the 'tache is back but this time it's here to stay. For a month at least. As part of Movember some of the guys at uni are sporting/growing/stealing moustaches to raise cash for prostate cancer. I'm part of that hardcore unit, more here

but this is what you've come for:
