sooo yesterday was saturday and there were all the normal karatemabobs, and so forth. we were just going over our ippon by ourselves in a corner somewhere for most of it. we only had to add the mawashigeri to the ippon from our grading so it wasnt too hard.
anyway, today was the thing. in the place! the YE business action majig. or somthing. anyway, it started at ten, so i actually had to get up on a sunday morning! scandalous!
but yeah. it was ok i guess. a bunch of people from F:Netix showed up, andy, simon, david, ellis, tom, and morphew all appeared (and me, of course) and thats somthing like half of the company. three people from horizon showed up, so they looked rather dejected and alone :D or somthing. they were being more than a bit gay, so we're going to have to actually elect a smear campaign director.. war, you say? are we invited?
anyway, most of it was obvious stuff, and the big bits about "communication" tied in with comm studies, there was some self fulfilling prophecy, paralanguage, and a touch of sartorial discourse (although these terms weren't used) and stuff. F:Netix "won" both group tasks even though they weren't technically races, but thats not important. the first one was this thing with cards and working stuff out and so forth, and we got the correct answer first, and right first time, so woo. the second one, later on, involved organising playing cards in a certain way, to see which group could do it a) fastest and b)with the smallest amount of people touching the cards. we got the most points each time, and horizon tried copying our method after the first time but we still beat them! ha ha etc
i've just remembered. all the companies had to brainstorm a company introduction, company name, the peoples names, product ideas etc. we decided to think of all the things we knew horizon were doing (ie their dodgy xfactor idea, and all the sports related stuff they plan on doing) to annoy them, and so we didn't have to give away our ideas. i think it worked. anyway, when the AHS company were introducing themselvels they said they were an all girls school and were going to use their resources and make porn, which was pretty funny.
hmmm.. can't think of anything else at the moment, but if i do, i'll.. mention it?
