Ooh, I haven't been on dA for ages.. came back online & have many many new Ds to look at ^.^ Just as well, for I am bored beyond belief. On another note, my parents are getting a new dog after Max died over the christmas holidays. He's a black English Cocker Spaniel, & I think he's about 6 weeks old atm, they're getting him in a couple of weeks. I'll post a picture in a second. Hope everyone who reads this is doing ok! Hat xx

Yey, I have my green belt at last. Felt incredibly ill during my grading, since I had some crappy virus the week before it & kept feeling really randomly dizzy, but I passed anyway so I'm insanely happy! I really need to soak it before I wear it, or it'll stain my gi.. which already has a massive orange streak across it, & i have no intention of turning that into a weird manky green-y brown colour... Also, all our whites who graded passed, so our club is starting to look pretty strong again after all our higher grades left uni to spread themselves across the country. All is well.

Yey, Jitsu nationals were fantastic, the competitions were well fun! Training was excellent as expected, with a choice of mats for some parts of the day, so you could decide whether to do weapons or throwing (weapons all the way!) etc. Ah, training on a hangover.. excellent, especially since we did about an hour of breakfalling.. with a line of 3 of us it meant that by the time you'd done your falls and ran around the mat to the start, it was your turn to go again.. slightly tiring. Oh well. Also, came 4th in the ground-fighting competition.. yey. Would've liked a medal, but I'm happy that I've improved a lot - the fights I lost were a lot cl
