Eyup, Chicks J
Well, it has all been going on since my last blog post! I’ve
managed to (sort of) wrangle my way onto the cheer squad (http://www.suug.co.uk/sports/cheerleading/)
–both delightful and exhausting in equal measure. Despite the preconception of
cheer (pompoms and squealing) it is literally one of the most intensive and
exhausting things I’ve ever done. EVER. Oh, and no pom poms for me!
I also had all the fun of going to see Beyoncé! She was
AMAZING, as expected – and after showing the photos to my other half, he was
geeking out about how good the lighting was. Typical performing arts student. So going to see Queen B left me with a croaky
voice for a few days, which did not come in useful during student elections
week >.<
Speaking of, my short-lived foray into the world of politics
has happened since my last interweb-rant. I ran for the role of LGBT+ officer,
a new role in the Students’ Union this year, and while I wasn’t successful, I
learned a lot more from the experience than I thought I would, along with
meeting an awful lot of new people through it too. No regrets!
Of course, I’m doing all of this around my degree. Sort of
the reason I’m here, after all :’)
I’ve been given my exam timetable for this year, and to be
honest it isn’t looking too bad! Three exams, and I’m feeling pretty confident
about them – one in Statistics, one in Individual Difference and Abnormality, and
one in Developmental and Social Psychology. While I’m confident about the
material, I’m hoping that I won’t have to look too much into development again.
Bah.
Anyways, that is more than enough ranting and more than
enough with the selfies for one blog post. I’ll keep you in the loop with my
goings on – keep an eye out for more posts!
Ciao!
