I know, I know. Haven't been doing much blogging recently. You'd think that now I'm not working I'd have a lot more time to do this, but somehow that's not the case.
Won't give any more escuses, just a promise to do better.
Fighting Batman on 27th March.
Yes thats right Batman.
Confused??

Don't know whether to cringe or laugh. A bit o both maybe.
Ah well, no biz like show biz I guess.

NEW
Ok, February 1st 2010.
My new Year, or New Era. Now I am a full time fighter and coach.
No job to go to today. Was tempted to have a late one today, but I fought the urge. Went round one of my coaches, Winston, just to get some help with this ever evolving package I am trying to put together.
I need organise my thoughts better. I have so much to share, but until recently I hadn't put much thought into how I would structure it all. When you are just a fighter, things are very straight forward, you're taught-you drill-you apply(spar), and voila, the technique is now yours.
I am now being looked to/relied on for guidance direction and all the other stuff that comes with the assumption of a leadership role, and I accept it, I want it. I'm just not used to it.
Lucky for me, I have good people around to lean on. A solid support structure is so important.
I have FRIENDS who help me with everthing, and even kick my ass from time to time when I am being silly or simply unproductive. Thanx to these friends of mine, being out of a job is not making me too nervous, only had one panick attack today and didn't faint at all.
I need to fight soon. Training for a fight always gets me to that mental state where I so love to be, just Sharp, Focused, Uncompromising, yeah baby, gotto fight soon, getting excited already.

Yep, coming up to my last week of work. Nneeervousss!
Started up my martial arts class in December, but apparently people don't train in the cold, huh?? Didn't get that memo. lol.
Well it's a little bit warmer now so........
I've been learning a lot recently about the business side of martial arts, and business in general to be perfectly honest. I've always either done something, or left it alone. I thought that was how most people operated. Never thought I would need to convince someone to do something that they actually want to do.
But I guess if I think about it, then I realise, sometimes people need to be reassured, (especially when it comes to investing in their own self developement) that they are not wasting time and money.
So come the 1st of Feb, I will be teaching and training full time. Yeeeaaahhh!!!
Just have to make sure I don't get divorced following this dream.

Sad
Ahh man, I believe in blessings so I guess that I automatically believe in curses. The people of Haiti are truly cursed IMO.
All the struggles they have had to endure since, I can't even remember. I know some people say that they are responsible for thier own politics, but this latest devastation they had absolutely no control of, obviously.
If you don't want to send money, have a look round the house and see if there's anything you don't want, send that! The images that bother me the most are the ones where children are involved. I saw a picture of a father holding his dead child. How do you go on after that?
I feel really sad for them, and wish I could do something on a large scale, but all I can do is send stuff. Doesn't seem enough.
We are so blessed!

Arrrgh
Rough start to new year. We're having some seriously bad weather, which is affecting both training, and work.
Lack of training is deffinately going to affect my goals I had set for the first half of this year, but only a little bit. Will have to get everthing sorted by this weekend.
Texted my boss this morning, 'as instructed', about whether or not to come in to work, he texted me back saying yes. Must have been a practical joke. Wasn't funny though. No work no pay.
Sooooomedaaaay overrr tha rainbow.............................................

PCB
Bet you're wondering what PCB means. Go on, take a guess, here's a hint, C stands for Christmas.
Yeah man, just getting back to some kind of a routine after the holidays. I don't know but it was a bit on/off for me. Yuh feel me? Seems like whenever I get some time off work, I make all these plans like, I'm gonna get some extra guitar practise in, or more time for MMA, or just checkout some of the older forms of martial arts. Some how though, I never seem to get anything done and I get so frustrated,(lil girly scream). On the other hand, me and my daughter been chillinnnnn. We had loads o fun. Didn't realise how funny she was.
Post christmas blues.
Please let me know if ur feelin da blues.
Respek.
