So I have tried to get a few pictures on this blog but came across the difficulty of not being able to get them from my phone to this computer, I tried emailing them, putting them on facebook.. everything I could think of, but nothing is working :( I shall keep trying, it may just be that the connection was bad at the time.
I had some photos taken today, we finished early to go into town to get passport photos which were needed for the powerboat level two certificate; it's a new requirement because RYA have had a lot of fraudulent powerboat level two certificates. Cost me five pounds :( We went to Cowes and discovered that the shop was shut so I went back, intending to get in a bike ride along the cycle route I came home along in the dark as it was a sunny and beautiful day. As I cycled in i realised that there would most likely be places in Newport to grab photos so I hurried up and got into Boots just before four, when it closed. As I was heading back to the cycle route from the town centre I saw five people i did not expect to see: all the way from Cowes, five friends from my course. They had got a bus to Newport and decided to walk home along the cycle path, so I stayed with them and got home three times slower than I would have alone, but it was fine as it was sunny and fairly warm. Lots of exercise occurred, therefore, this afternoon.
I'm still waiting to get the video of me hiking out at the beginning of the Instructor Course (about two weeks ago!) It will be as soon as the instructor has got it onto the computer and I've got it onto my memory stick. This week I should improve considerably as we're learning a lot of advanced techniques apparently like sailing backwards, tight circling and other such stuff. Should be great, but it's an important week and one I can't really miss. The week after that is the Dinghy Instructor Assessment week :O :O :O It's come up so quickly. But, if all goes well, I should, by the end of it be qualified to instruct dinghy sailing :D Something to look forward too... i just need to get my head down and work seriously hard at everything.
I've been listening to quite a bit of Lecrae recently, yes, still. However when I'm on the computer I have access to youtube so I thought that tonight I'd share a few of the songs/music videos which I've been listening to whilst writing these blog posts.
Hawk Nelson - Crazy Love. Great song, definitely recommend listening to this.

Group 1 Crew - Live it Up. Decent tune.

Those are just a few, my favourites for the moment. I have breaking news however, my bro has just bought a copy of ChipK's EP so hopefully tomorrow evening or Tuesday evening I should be getting those songs to listen to as well :D Looking forward to that.
Tomorrow everything goes up ANOTHER notch. This coming week will be the most demanding yet, lots to learn.
