miss_s_bHolly is doing excellently in all subjects, but she's not working to her full potential was the basic report at school. She's in the top set for everything except Maths (in which she would be in the top set if she worked faster), and is one of the best readers in the school, apparently. And she has an amazing imagination and is very creative. It's just that sometimes she drifts off into a little world of her own and won't work. But she's such a little individual, and has such forthright views...
It's eerie, really. They could just photocopy my school reports. Or my dad's.
Karate, though... Karate was AWESOME. I know it was only my third lesson, but we got paired up for punch and block practise, and Sensei Puddin' DID tell us to go as hard and fast as we could... I got paired up with a brown belt guy, similar height and reach to me and... well, put it this way, I got an impressed eyebrow raise out of him a couple of times for being bang on target and fast enough to get past his block. And I have a couple of bruises on my forearms because he was a bit more diligent with the blocking after that LOL.
Why have I not done martial arts before now? It was FUN!
But now I must go for a bath before Question Time because I am as sweaty as a vicar in a brothel...

Glad you're enjoying it.
I made the mistake of moving from the same set to top for Maths, got the same grade as I would have in my original set, but with more work, more stress and feeling less comfortable with the subjects - If I stayed in the original set I probably would have stronger maths now and possibly have looked at doing A Level maths.
oh yeah, martial arts are fun!
I've been hooked on rough sports since rugy and judo at school age, since then I've had a lot of fun (and learnt a great deal about self-defense, my mind, my body and general physiology) throwing myself into Tae Kwon Do (although it was a Freestyle Karate affialated club rather than traditional), Kung Fu (Fujian White Crane school in London manages an amazing mix of combat, history, physiology and physics together with a good workout), Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu / Mixed Martial arts (aka Cage Fighting) - which was probably the most fun I've had with clothes on.
Once your hooked you'll be addicted though!
