tae kwon who?


i stink. literally. well, i did anyway. not right now thanks to the glorious invention called showers. but in some funny way it felt totally sexy to be stinky tonight. to have sweat pouring down my face, muscles wearing from use. mmm, good stuff.

not convinced? well, you shoulda been there. that's all i have to say.

its fun i've found, looking like an offical "Michelin" man, ballooning on all sides from the puffy exterior of my uniform. (if i was really savvy i would tell you the technical name for the garb. i'm not savvy though. nor technical really.) but as i donned the white belt i felt a pride in being at the bottom of the totem pole. up is the only way, baby. bring it.

so as i whirled and twirled, maybe even teetered a little on the brink of an all-out-flail, i had some of the most fun i've had in awhile. i'm thinking that i like a challenge. oh, who am i kidding?? i LOVE a challenge. give me a chance and i will strive to prove you wrong about any abilities i may (or may not) hold. even when success is not the outcome, the effort is worth the opportunity to excel.


i feel like i'm preaching a sermon from the Sabbath pulpit, but MAN, life feels good when you do something about it. rather than letting it do something about you.

okay, that's it. all i got.

isn't life good?!

Sweating is definitely sexy... that's what I tell myself anyway as I see people looking at me with a slight wrinkle of their nose. hehe. :)

You're becoming a martial arts master, eh? I'm intimidated... :)

Life is good, especially when you go out and seize it! Kudos to you!! :D
