So between school having finals come up and work being... work. I had been trying to get a job as a police officer for my city. I did well on the written test and was called back to do the physical test.

This is where I got dumb.

I didn't train anywhere near as much as I should have and I wore jeans and hiking boots to the physical. I made a FOOL of myself.

I managed to pull my little 5'2" self up and over the 6' wooden fence, but I can't just hop over it like the boys. So I had to jump up, grab the top of the fence and then use my arms to hold me up while I walked up the side of the wall and threw myself over. Due to the edge of the fence, the skin on my wrists was grafted off, leaving these nice looking bruises on both my arms. They are huge, angry and make just about everything painful.

The bruises shown in my scraps are the progression of my right wrist, but my left one looks equally as narly. You don't even want to see the state my legs are in.

I have a 3 hour studio art class that I have a final project in. I was working on my project today and had to keep stopping every five minutes to rest my arm because it would start burning from the effort of sketching. I HAVE to finish my final. However, for the sake of not damaging already strained muscles I am trying to do as little else as I can. WHICH DRIVES ME CRAZY BECAUSE I DOODLE CONSTANTLY.

I know I post excuses a lot on why I can't finish these commissions, and I am REALLY thankful you guys have been so patient with me. IRL sucks and keeps getting in the way.
