More info on my Uni day

Yesterday was my first 'proper' day at the Uni on my own, it was a 'welcome/progression' day. The day was aimed to get people to meet new people on the same course as them. Well for me there was nobody there that was on the same course as me but there were two girls in the same building as me and one girl that's just down the road from where I am based. 

When we first got there we got a free lunch time meal and drink. After this we went to one of the rooms were we got told what we would do during the day, the first thing we did was play 'human bingo' and basically you had to go up to different people ask them the questions that were on the sheet we'd got and if they could answer it then you had to write their name down. 

After this we split in to groups one that would go to the building where I am, one the building down the road from me and the other at the main Kedleston Road building. We then got a tour round the building (apart from the fact that the majority of the doors were locked, so you couldn't really lookat anything) and this is where I met the first two girls Shannan and Amy, Amy is doing a photography course like me so we will be in the same building. Shannan is also in the same building as us. When we had finished the tour we then went back to the main building and had a break and this is where we met Wallace, she is doing an art therapy course at the building down the road from us. The four of all just seemed to get on and stuck together for the rest of the afternoon. When the break was over we had to do a questionnaire on how we would deal with certain uni situations and then we got given the answers of what we should do. Finally there was a talk about the Students Union and then a question and answers session that we all had to attend. One of the main questions was about Parking. Students that are driving, like me, to Uni each day will need to get a permit but are not actually allowed to park in the Uni car parks! That was the end of the day. 

Until Next Time

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti...

Just as you think things are getting better they prove not to be.

On Sunday in the Early hours of the morning my nan took another fall, while she was trying to go to the toilet, (she has an en suite so it wasn't a long way for her to walk but she went all dizzy and then fell), and as she has a small compact bathroom she hit her head on the side of the bath. Today we had the Doctor out to see her and he was worried with the fact that her blood pressure drops so low when she stands up and when following the doctors finger when looking to the right her eye was jerking side ways but not to the left. So he said he wanted her to go in to a Day case unit and have a whole load of tests including a brain scan, blood tests and chest x-rays. He wrote a cover note/letter and my Uncle took my nan to the doctors. While she was there she had an ECG, blood tests and chest x-rays but no brain scan which was the most important one that she needed. They then told her that her blood pressure was fine but it was her heart that they were worried about. She never had ...

an intense few days.

The past few days have been INTENSE to say the least. Both days have been filled with horsey madness and while I am aching now I feel good for managing to accomplish everything that I have done. There will be some video's soon but I honestly just haven't got around to uploading them and editing them so as soon as I do that I'll let you know and you can all see. Yesterday I went up to do Magic, after all the ponies nearly escaped from the field I eventually managed to convince him to come and do some work. He had a really nice groom and fuss, which he LOVED. Then I put his bridle with his new reins on, and his lunge cavesson (not sure if I have spelt that right), we lunged nicely for both ways doing walk, trot and canter. Then out of no where going to the right he exploded. I couldn't see anything that had happened so assumed he was just having one of his moments and that he would be fine and calm down, but that I might need to free school him first. So I did what I...
