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...

Magic's 2nd day in his new home

It has been a while since I have posted on here but I thought it was the perfect time to restart the blog. So to start with I'll give you all an update on what's been going on over the years since I've posted and then I will be back to regularly posting and keeping you all updated on the world of magic.  The first big change who I need to introduce is Jaxon, Jaxon is mine and Jack's 7 month old baby, he was born on the 7th July 2020. Part of this blog will be dedicated to overcoming the challenges of having a small child and owning a horse, even when everyone told me it was impossible to do. Jax has a best friend Bailey who is mums new 1 year old puppy and he has the best time trying to play with her.  Of course Magic is one of Jaxon's best friends.  Now for an update on Magic, he is doing really well, I can't remember if I ever told you, but he moved yards last year when I was pregnant with little man. Unfortunately this yard just didn't quite ...

Olympics - good bad or both?

In the Beijing Olympics in 2008 the horses used in the pentathlon were said to cause farcical scenes with fall after fall after fall. This was said to be the fault of the horses that were either hired or loaned to the competitors. It was not blamed to be rider error or a combination of both rider error and horse error, it was labelled as being the horses fault or this is what it said in ' Horse and Hound Magazine'. This horse was said to have been to spooky and sharp, but is it not a combination of rider's aids and rider error AS WELL as the horse being spooky. Can we really just blame it on the horse, when we are the ones that tell the horse what to do, by no means am i saying it was 'just the riders fault' couldn't it have been a combination of both?.    For the London 2012 Olympics it was said that a total of two years if no longer was spent attempting to find the right horse for the right competitor. They made sure that the horse was at the right l...
