Phew!!!! What a week indeed!!!

I've been a right old busy bee this week, trying to cram in as much as possible...but paid the price in the end - doh! Unfortunately, I'm having to write this from my sofa where I'm still recovering from a bout of rubbishy asthma - grrrr!!! But hey that's life!

The Weekend

The girlies from the polo club were at the SUPA National Indoor Polo Championships and it was awesome!!! Both our beginners and novice teams played well and ultimately finished in 12th and 8th place in their division respectively. We also got to see several chukkas in the Open Division - talk about super fast!!! I was tired just watching. It wasn't all hard work though and we managed to unwind with a couple of parties too.

 

 

Monday

Start of the new semester - how exciting! So was a day full of getting things sorted really with a couple of meetings thrown in. Then it was time for rehearsal for the production of 'Once A Catholic' that is being performed on Friday 15th & Saturday 16th Feb!

Tuesday

Funkin' it up with some drama rehearsals for the final year project for 3 hours - tis very tiring ya know! In the evening all us drama peeps went along to the Enterprise Challenge Awards where all three of our final year theatre companies had entered Stage One of the competition. Unfortunately, none of us won (well done to all those who did!), but it was still great to see everyone properly dressed up!! Then it was time to pop home and prepare for the inevitable carnage tomorrow which was...

Wednesday 

REFRESHERS FAYRE!!! I was up bright and early and helped set up the RAG stall before popping off to a lecture. By the time I returned the fayre was in full swing. I got talking to loads of interesting peeps and enjoyed learnign about all the different societies and clubs our Union has to offer (don't worry if you missed it - you can find all the contact details of all our clubs on www.upsu.net). Then in the evening (no rest for the wicked!) more rehearsals for Friday!

 

 

Thursday

Oh dear...time for the crash! Damn my weakened immune system for striking me down on Valentines of all days. Blimmin asthma got the better of me, so although was feeling pants, slow and a teeny-bit grumpy I still managed to make it a bit productive. Held a Societies Takeover meeting and sorted the last few niggly bits and bobs, got some flyers and posters organised and...yep you guessed it....another rehearsal (until midnight!)

Friday

Not even the end of the week yet, but so wish it was. Am still recovering and am taking it easy today (after much nagging from my mates!) so I can get back to normal asap! I'm also ridiculously nervous about the first performance tonight - but hey it will be alright on the night...or so they say!!! If you want to come along it's at 7.30pm at Thorngate Halls in Gosport (a very short taxi ride from the ferry!) and tickets for students are just £5!!!

Bring on next week!!! Hmmm a quiet one perhaps??? NOPE!!! Pure Fm members meeting, 24hour charity broadcast on Pure Fm, Tuition Fees debate and the one and only SOCIETIES TAKEOVER!!!! WOOOOO!!!!
