Thursday, 27th October

I rose at 6.50am to meet Abby at the pool for a swim. It was a nice way to wake up, but the chemicals were so strong it isn't the best for my skin. If only the beach was close by.

Sammy and I had a good quick Abs session. We did 45 sec x 9 or so routines of abs (crunches, bicycles, leg raisers ect). We finished with some side bends then headed to Lapo.

I had a nice omelette, a cinnamon bun and some pineapple and grapefruit, before heading back for a quick shower.

It was freezing this morning. But very refreshing! It got to a low of 31 deg!!! (thats -0.5 Celsius).

I put on my gap chinos, and a letterman jacket and headed to my 9.30am public speaking class. Only to find that my back tire (which I had replaced the tube on wednesday) had gone flat. I think the tire had worn out and it made it burst. I parked it half way as I didn't want to damage the rims and walked the rest.

In class we watched "I have a Dream" by King, finally.

I headed back to the dorms to finish off the strategic management project. I had to put it all together and take it off google docs and make it a finished product in word. I got it done in time for my 12.30 strategic class.

In the afternoon I fixed my bike at the on campus bike shop. The boys there are very friendly and let me use the tools.
I continued to attempt to fix my bike problem. Did I mention the bike lock doesn’t work for some reason? I cant remove the key when it is in the locked position… so I hold it together using gaffa tape with the illusion that it is locked, when it really isn’t. Don’t tell anyone.

I didn’t go to the engineering class, instead I checked my mail. Georgies box with her dress had arrived, and so too a little surprise from the science library café! It tasted just as good, if not better than the last time I had one.

I met Lucas in the gym and we pumped up the chest and tri’s.

After I grabbed my laptop and headed to Lapo. I had dinner with mum and Harry, we had a good skype.

I quickly showered and went to class for change management.

After class I met up with Lucas and the English lads and had a beer and pizza at Brickyard Pizza. Abby, Mariana and Laura also joined us later on.

I headed back home and had a great sleep.
