(no subject)
Oct. 18th, 2006 08:44 pmI was all worried about my in-class writting for Spanish, but it turned out fairly well. I knew what she wanted this time, plus the fact that I could write a great deal about Mr. Bush's current polices in Spanish, than writting why television is a cutural wasteland. I'm also happy that the prompt wasn't about sexism, as the topic makes me even more incohernt than I already am, especialy when I have to explain why certian ideas are sexist. Like, "a women having an abortion without teling the father and/or asking him" or "a man always paying for a date."
Uhm. Anyways, had a much easier time with the essay, though I kept using one word probably far too much and possbley incorrectly.
And since today is Wedsday, I fenced. For some reason, my stance is all wrong and the rest of the people continualy try to point out what I'm dong wrong. It's fustranting, not because I'm doing it wrong but because when they correct it they always contradict what someone had told me earlier. That's not getting into the trouble I'm getting with... other things. It's hard to describe, but I'm having a large disconect between some words that mean a movement and preforming the actual movement. (And I can't do a drill with more than four or five actions or I'll forget the drill in the middle of actually preforming it.)
But, even with all that, I did okay with the bouts that I fought today. The first two I got slaughted with either zero and one point, then I fenced okay and losted, then the last two the other guys lost their minds and started throwing themselves on my blade. I'm serious, they kept advanceing into my blade when they moved into the attack.
Finally, I now have to wear a armoured bra for fencing. The cups are plastic and the bit that attaches together is just like a normal bra's eye hooks. Though since I have nothing to really protect it's closer to a breast plate as it covers my entire ribcage for some reason.
