PI Day 2013

It is pi day today and the SciFi/Fantasy club on campus is celebrating by having pie with their movie tonight. I celebrated by having some pie, also wishing people happy pi day.

I finished the hat I was making myself, most of the knitting time I had was during class time. Knitting during class helps me concentrate so that I learn better as well as being less distracting with all of my fidgeting.


Beyond that, the last horse show I was in I got to try reining, and it was fun. I had no idea how to do some of the stuff, other things I only knew the theory. It was fun, and I did ok, the class wasn't a serious class, so it was really fun to watch all of us go. The class that I actually competed in I did alright in, and the horse I was on was wonderful. This past weekend I went to regionals to watch and cheer on my teammates who qualified, it was fun, we had two people who qualified for semi-finals in California for there classes as individuals. The team will be sending a full team as well as we won the region. Once again I have no pictures.

Because it is my neighbor's birthday today, I leave you with this:

Knitting and Horses

I have been busy with classes, western riding team, and some knitting. Classes have been going well with the occasional lack of sleep but that is life. Beowulf is interesting as I am slowly learning Old English.

My computer has decided that now is the time to start a slow slide to death. This makes doing some of my homework a little interesting as the speakers have decided that they don't always want to work.

The riding team is fun. I will post some pictures eventually.
The team, jumping off a wall.
Progress continues on the hat, I am on my second chart about half way through it. A friend let me borrow her hand cards so I am working on processing some of my raw alpaca fiber.
The hat
M was in a play called "Summer at Yasnaya Polyana" it was a student directed and created work. The play was about Tolstoy, his wife and a piano player. M was the piano player and she had a beard.

It was worth going to and seeing, I do not feel bad for skipping the other two plays as I had a free ticket due to being a student.
The weather has turned and now there is mud everywhere.
ON that note, the Doctor is coming and with him comes soufflĂ© girl.

On a positive note Kilgharrah(my bike) now has lights, not just the reflectors. And yes that requires a dancing Ood.
