For the past month I have done pretty much nothing bar revise in the library, do supervisions, row, erg and sleep. And eat. Sometimes. But now it is all over!
My last exam was on the Tuesday, and they seem to have gone OK (well, they weren't a complete disaster!) And then it was full steam ahead bumps prep! We had a quick outing on the tuesday evening (no post exam drunkenness for us!), not to be confused with an easy outing! Followed by pasta and Topgun, which was pretty cool!
After a relatively early night (and quite a lot of sleep) it was lunch time (I'd only managed malt loaf for breakfast). I was pretty nervous, so I didn't manage to eat much, but plenty of Powerade was drunk! We then cycled down to the boat house, did a practice start on the ergs and then we were on the river. We were 3rd in the division so we marshaled fairly early, and fortunately right next to the toilets , very useful for a nervous bladder. Eventually the marshals told us to row up to station. Unfortunately it was pissing it down by this point so it was quite a relief to get onto the startline!
The race was EPIC, we had overlap from grassy, and kept racing until past the railway bridge, but we bumped them!
Anyway thats enough for now, more updates when i get round to it!
