have been doing stuff, have been writing it down, haven't been posting

here is post

( log behind cut )

( Ok Steve, it's behind a cut! Long one since it's a couple weeks worth )

still doing my training - don't want to lose this stuff - but trying out a school here - having a school is better for pushing oneself

nice bunch, it seems like. a lot of kicking and hand striking targets. pretty hard but not as hard as CCC Kung Fu class. even though pretty good, still makes me appreciate the intense excellence of Sifu Lin (and of my first TKD instructor). but it felt like, it's ok for me to train with almost anybody as long as it's a positive situation, because of the sense of detail and rigor that my first instructor and Sifu Lin ingrained in me.

good for the brain and body, new experiences, i guess.

hey shanti

look man, if you ever find yourself doing forced labor for a cult driven coal mine where the way to show your loyalty is to act like you lust and hunger for coal by saying "coooaaalll" and gathering more coal into your satchel, and you're feeling very revolutionary, just be careful man, just be careful!

Happy birthday to lasilvia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

may your day be filled with cream!
