Okay, all systems go...
Jun. 5th, 2007 02:22 amLJ's back to working properly again!!! Huzzah, huzzah, and there was much rejoicing! :-D
So...
I passed my orange belt test today. Went pretty well. I broke my first board and had to spar with Mr. Miller, one of the black belts. I skinned my knuckle a tad, but still the board was much easier to break than I thought it'd be. I felt a bit out of my element with the sparring. Most of what they've taught us has been defensive moves, and with sparring you have to be on the offensive to. Afterward there was a workshop with Mr. Steve Zorn, who taught us some knife fighting and grappling, and was overall pretty cool.
It was a lovely rainy day today. It smelled like honeysuckle and thunder, and just as I was coming out of practice the sun slipped down below the clouds and there was a rainbow. Everything was amazingly green against the gray of the clouds. Beautiful.
