The Life of Bri

Leaving...

brionywolf — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 01:51:36 GMT

...Sorry guys, I'm leaving this account. I might go back to it every so often but probably not... Reason? Think someone I know keeps reading it because the account name is something I use regularly... Therefore, I have a new account.
If you want it, just message me. If not, then no biggy!

Adios!

Documentary

brionywolf — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 03:25:18 GMT

I'm taking part in a documentary O_O

I can't say much because I'm not quite ready to do so... but I've got a phone call with the director or planner of the documentary on Sunday. I can't say what the show is about either - but I might be blurred in the documentary. if I choose to. It's all in planning motion and it'll likely be aired in the summer.
I'll keep you posted. AND I'll post about the phone call and everything very soon, I promise!!!

Drunkeness

brionywolf — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 01:36:03 GMT

I'm siting here, rather drnk. I',ve got mate on my bed that I've just fucked. Hpowever, I just broke down in front of him and completete blurted into tears. I don't do this. And normally alcohol doesn't do thids to me...but whether it#s because I've got a funferal coming up soon-issssh and I'm drunk; I dunno.

All I know is I ache.
I feel ill = and not because I am ired or drunks. it s becuase I am sad.
And yes, I may be doing the wrong thing ghere.
Yrs I may be completey7 out of my dace.
An yes maybe I shouldn't be ex[ressing myself on an impersional things such as the internet..but i don't care.
But why th fuck why not?! My gran just died and I never cry among anyone, so quite frankly I think I should be given a break.

I;ve got sooo much oto live for but, for some rreason, I couldn't give a damn at this point in time.

Writer's Block: Holiday blues

brionywolf — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 22:25:18 GMT

For me, it's the amount of chocolates you're expected to eat for one bloody holiday! And then the phonecalls of thanks... urgh.
I like Christmas, but these days shops put up the decoration in November and some in October... it ruins what makes Christmas so special for children.
I can't be fussed with it tbh lol.

Next year the family have agreed to not celebrate it with presents, just food and booze. WOOP WOOP!!

Writer's Block: Voulez-vous parler ...

brionywolf — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 15:45:59 GMT

I currently speak English.

I'd love to speak fluent Welsh, because my Grandpa grew up speaking welsh but has now forgotten much of it. I'd love to carry on the language of my ancesters =)
I'd also LOVE to speak siberian!!!

brionywolf — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 19:44:17 GMT

The more I think about Hartpury the more I want to go... I just wish they offered accommodation as good as Liverpool John Moores!! >.

Writtle it is

brionywolf — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:15:32 GMT

Ok, so, I've made a decision.
Though, being me, this decision will likely change several times.
But basically, I'm going to apply to study at Writtle College, for a number of reasons:

1. Local town and village and campus shops and bars offer better part-time employment. Hartpury offers virtually none unless you're foreign.
2. The courses and more diverse and appealing.
3. There is more choice of accommodation (none are self-catered though; only downside).
4. Writtle has had much better student reviews than Hartpury.
5. I'll still do my MA in Equine Business Management at Hartpury College, so going to two different places gives me a more varied outlook I think.

I'm still thinking of visiting Hartpury, but I know it'll confuse me again. I've heard A LOT of negative things about Hartpury College (all except for equine facilities, which have had no end of praise). Writtle has had almost no complaints.

Decisions. Decisions.

And do I want to study Equine Sports Therapy BSc? Yes.
Will I? I've no bloody idea!!
Why? Because I really like the sound of Equine Breeding and Stud Management BSc!

Writtle v Hartpury

brionywolf — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 02:21:31 GMT

You guys should know by now that I'm incredibly indecisive...

...so it'll come no surprise to you that I can't decide...

Writtle College or
Hartpury

Writtle is in the lead on a lot of aspects (accommodation and employment around area are better)

but Hartpury is also really good (world renowned for equitation, and it offers self-catered accommodation).

Everyone says Writtle is much better than Hartpury for student social life, which is very true. But I'm ignoring that aspect as my deciding factor because I hate city life and clubbing and drinking for nights on end. Rural is the way to go people! =D

Also, I'm not sure I want to study Equine Breeding and Stud Management. I mean, I love the subject and it'd be great to study and will be useful to me one day... but employment for careers related to that come few and far between. Eek!

I really like Equine Sports Science (Hartpury) and Equine Sports Therapy (Writtle), though, and I always have. They are in high demand and the pay is fantastic...
And because the majority of people in that industry are self-employed, the money is really REALLY good. And, though this is shallow, I refuse to be poor! I'm poor now and I don't like it lol.

I really want to study Equine Business Management and Hartpury one day anyway, as a masters.

Hmmm... so maybe I should study my BSc at Writtle (where there is more opportunity to find a part-time job) and then study my MA at Hartpury.

I'm visiting the two universities after the New Year... so maybe it'll just come down to the 'feel' of the place. We'll see...

AWESOME!! I love how wriing it down suddenly clarifies things and makes the decision for me.
Guaranteed I'll think of some other college or course next month, lol XD

Typical me xxx

'Crazy' by Gnarles Barkley.

Reasons why? No idea!

Writer's Block: I need my space ...

brionywolf — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:26:15 GMT

Oh my word! Erm...
I hate clingyness... and I recently dated a guy that declared his love for me a week into our relationship! =O
Definite NO NO!!! (We're over now =D)

For example, I dated a guy for a year and half a few years ago... and I didn't tell him I loved him until about 8 months in... and even then I wasn't sure!

I'm not one for clinyness, but if a partner gets a tad jealous when I'm with a hot friend or something, then it can be kinda cute...as long as the jealousy doesn't go further then just a tad of it.

Make sense? Lol

Writer's Block: Let the shopping begin!

brionywolf — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:53:28 GMT

Normally I buy about a month in advance... but this year I'm getting close family prezzies a couple weeks before xmas, and then everyone else will get a lil something from the January sales.
I'm poor lol

Assignments

brionywolf — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 11:52:33 GMT

Sitting at college, in the LRC.
I am writing this otherwise I'll end up staring at my folder without a clue as to what I'm meant to be doing. It's all to easy to get lost in my surprisingly-organised folder!

So...

Resubmissions thus far that I need to do:
LO3 Nutrition

Assignments I'm due back, likely to resub again:
LO3/4 Anatomy
LO3 Breeding and Genetics
LO4 Nutrition
LO2 Farm Livestock

New assignments still to do:
Key Skills (Animal testing article)
LO4 Farm Livestock
LO4 Breeding and Genetics
Practical assignment (not due in till March)

Everything has to be done and passed by xmas or we fail the course and are kicked out. They threatened that last year and it never happened, so I doubt there is any truth to their words.
Nevertheless, I'm not taking the chance.
What's odd is that I'm surprisingly on top of my coursework. That long list above is NOTHING compared to some people on my course.

Why must we live among TWATS?!

brionywolf — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 19:14:19 GMT

ARGH
ARGH
ARGH
ARGH
ARGH

*cough*

Ok, Bri... breathe!
Ony my way home from college I have to catch the coach. Today it was unusually empty because many people were off for one reason or another. So, anyway, I'm used to the twats at the back of the bus (always the sports gals and guys for some reason... oh, and chavs) doing stupid stuff... but they've never been this bad!

Basically, there were calling a friend of mine 'gayboy' and insulting him the entire journey... we weren't answering but that didn't stop them. He isn't gay, but that's besides the point. Also, the girl who was insulting him the most is an 'out-and-proud' lesbian!
They were squirting him with water and consequently squirted me... so I turned round and said "#############!!!#!#!#!"... a few words O.o
So that stopped, though they tried doing it again until I turned round. Then they finally gave up.
But there is a special needs dude on our coach. He doesn't realise he's being bullied... he thinks it's because he's popular (he isn't, but I think it's his type of autism that is complicating his social skills and ability to understand others). They, while he was trying to sleep, wacked him with a crop (horse whip)!!!
ABUSE! They know it is, but they think it's funny because he won't do anything because it isn't upsetting him.

What the flying fuck is with these pricks?!

You'd think that people would grow up a little... but oh no!

ARGH!
ARGH!!
ARGH!!!

So... I'm pissed off, tired, have loads of assignments to do because the lecturers have decided to give them to us now... and they have to be done and passed the end of term or else! URGH

Rant over...

Equine Studies

brionywolf — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 00:06:32 GMT

So, it's official...

Come February/March I will be applying to study for a BSc in Equine Breeding and Stud Management.
Then, if mine and my sister's plans go ahead, we'll spend 2 years working in New Zealand.
When we come back, I'll hopefully have earned enough money to study for an MA in Equine Business Management. Hartpury is looking good, though more expensive than Writtle, for MA in Equine Business Management.

I'm so happy :-)

Writer's Block: The right fight

Equine Choices

brionywolf — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:34:05 GMT

Ok,
So.... I'm very indecisive...
and although I've already sent off my UCAS application (to study wildlife conservation), I am thinking of ditching the choices when I get my acceptance/rejection letters and using UCAS's EXTRA to apply to an equine-related course;-
Writtle College - BSc Equine Breeding and Stud Management (sandwich), or BSc Equine Sports Therapy
Hartpury College - Equine Sports Science
University of the West of England - Equine Sports Science
University of Brighton - BSc Equine Sports Science

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Horses, and though I love wildlife conservation, it's something that I'd be happy volunteering every year somewhere for long vacations... so I don't mind not studying it. You know?

So, say I decided to study one of the above courses... which one?!?
I love the breeding and stud management because I hope to one day own a livery yard, and posibbly breed Friesians. Plus, I get to go abroad for a year!!! But I don't want to pick a course solely for its international possibilities.
And at the same time, I have this burning desire to study equine therapy. I can imagine myself at the races, behind the scenes, tending to stiffened horses.
Also, if I am not eligible to use Ucas's EXTRA then I may take yet another year out of college and work at my old stables and gain experience which I can use for the following year, or I could take a quick one year course in equine management at the college I'm currently at. Decisions!! I'm terrible... lol.... I can never stick to an idea.

I als have to think about funding. If I did take another year out, I'd be 20 by the time I started the course, and only a few months from 21. By the end of a 3 year course (like all but one of the above) I'll be nearing 24. I don't know if loans and grants will cover me for the full duration.... and online sites aren't answering the question for me.

HELP! >.<
