Off to go eat dinner now

Rae, I can't say your post came as a surprise. School is ramping up, and it's hard to keep all these pre-arranged appointments, even when that appointment is to do some free-form writing.

Personally, I find blogging sometimes to be a chore, but often to be a very enjoyable activity. Who doesn't love talking and talking and talking…! It also allows me to discover and develop my written "voice", which I don't get to do in any of my courses at school.

I guess Evie, Miah and I will have to decide what to do now– stop blogging, keep blogging, get another friend in on the Monday action… What I know we won't do is force you, Rae, to blog, because it was never meant to be a chore!


In other news, my life is being taken over – and not in a bad way – by taekwondo.
Lots of practices, and I just tried out for the university's competitive TKD team. (I found out that I made it, which wasn't a big surprise as I think I made it by default anyway :P)

I've been working on my sparring, and also working on building up my endurance. All this cardio is reminding me of how much I hate running!!

I got one-on-one sparring lessons prior to the try-out, since I had never done full-contact (hitting) sparring with equipment before. Those were intense lessons, and now I am bruised and blistered, but much more knowledgeable!

Tonight will involve more TKD– being a 2nd degree black belt, I am going to help out at the beginner class. Here's hoping I don't get mugged or killed on the way home!

Hope to see you guys soon. Thanksgiving weekend is coming up, and I would love for you guys to visit me during my drugged out oral surgery recovery period!

<3 Lee
