hahaha...Arent they just out to beat u up with those "armor"...? hehehe...i went for my third tkd tournament today...many ppl compete for the tournie...about 50% are these little angels....seriously...when they spar...they look so cute...imagine them hopping around in those "armor" with their short legs and trying to kick..i cannot help but laugh when i watch...
Well..i didnt do as well as i had hoped in this tournament...got a 2nd for forms...3rd for breaking and sparring....o well...i did not have tht much time of a practice anyway...i actually have a video of me sparring 2 matches..i got my ass whooped in the first match because im taking on a guy a head taller than me...so he just use his leg to get head shots for 2 points..where i can only get body shots for one point....buut i won in the second match...realised when i watch the vid my friend recorded that i look quite good...wahahahaha....o well...it was quite an experience...
Every smst since i moved to US...there is this major learning point i take away from the semester...Last year spring it was about adapting to the new environment....last year fall it was about learning how to speak more in class and in public...this semester it is definitely how to be more humble...i think i was really being too cocky abt everything...i thought i just use it as a joke..but after a while it actually creeps into my system and way of thinking...i got so cocky tht i think God..as fair as he always is...smacked me right in the face with reality....and yea..he smacked me real good...first...he smacks me with getting 3 C grade exams....second...he smacks me with the fact that i dont rule in the tournies anymore...the reality he smacks me with is...you may have workeed real hard to get where u are now...but if u dont work as hard or even harder....you will be brought down, fall, and be overtaken by other ppl who deserves it more than i do................Yeah...ouch huh...i felt it too...you might say to me, "of course you will be overtaken when you get complacent you idiot.."..well sometimes you almost have to experience it yourself to solidify a principle of life....=)
