Wow, I feel like a part of me has been missing since I haven't really been checkin the forums here. A quick rundown of the past couple of weeks....

1.) Bike stolen
2.) Think trans mount is bad (still haven't gotten to thoroughly check it out)
3.) Anatomy/Physiology classes getting a little better, despite all the memorization
4.) Two months behind on credit card payment, but may get it paid up in a few days (YAY!)
5.) Need to do another oil change
6.) Found out an instructor was three months behind on his rent payment to a very important facility. Now I'm taking full financial responsibility of the location, hence the poverty. (I think there was about $1,025 debt, geez)
7.) Been working a LOT more. Normally I check here before bed, but lately been crashing pretty quick
8.) Also been working out and doin a lot of cardio. Only way I've kept up with everything.
9.) Got talked into participating in our tournament this past Saturday. Took 3rd place after many many matches. Got a kewl battle scar on the right arm (loose velcro on opponent'* handgear )

and the most important thing....

10.) Been missing all my family here at the BC!!!!

As far as the ole girl, she crossed 130,000 miles about a week and a half ago. She'* missing all the work I used to be able to devote, hehe. But no worries, as soon as everything is back in order, I'm gonna finish the spoiler and get that mount fixed.

Anyways, that'* my story... What all have I missed? There'* way too many posts nowadays to try and go back to catch up!

You missed a couple of meets, couple of Babies, Will'* example of how kr can kill your engine, Tracey singing, TJ'* job merry go round, a PIF or two....

Everday STUFF... LOL


Whats up with #6 on your list there???

#9 are there any videos on the web of your matches?




*silly song running through my head right now*

#6.) When you have someone who is an ostrich, and likes to stick their head in the sand whenever anything goes wrong and just hope something good happens to fix it all, you get situations like these. Don't worry though, it'll all come out in the wash, and he'* not being blackballed or anything. He'* just going to have to suffer my wrath for a while, lol.

#9) I am trying to find someone with video. If I can get a copy, I will post it myself. I am currently in the process of trying to get a demo we did a couple years ago up there actually.


Dang, I missed a lot... Was glad about Tallbump though... he really deserved that PIF. Also, I guess I'm going to have to see what Will'* done now... like a little "Do as I say, not as I do" type learning experience?

I thought you were a student??? Is this instructor you're bailing out part of a company you own or something? Or are you guarranteeing a 4.0

I am a student. I am a 3rd Degree Black Belt, and I am still training for my Masters level which I am scheduled to test for some time in May of 08.

I am also an instructor, as well as Area Director for the art that I study in the Dallas/ Ft. Worth Metroplex. I also teach at two of the locations myself, both in Fort Worth and Burleson.

Grandmaster William McDonald actually owns the company, I am just an underling, lol.

Not all the instructors have their cards up on the staff page, so it looks rather small, heh

As for the other half of the term 'student', yes I am also attending Tarrant County College. I am in an Anatomy & Physiology course that has actually been labeled the hardest course on campus. My C-B average in there, as well as the 75% drop rate this semester alone can attest to that . I am required to take this class to test for Mastership in May. The other classes that were required for Mastership that I have already taken were Psychology, Philosophy, and Concepts of Physical Education.

Yoo do know there'* only 24 hours in a day right?

Now that makes more sense. Thanks

BTW - this is a one kick butt pic!

lmao... I've been told several times actually

Would it be saying too much that I also part-time at a CVS, run a studio location out of a YMCA 3 days a week (I only teach the advanced belts, so I'm not there all night each night), teach black belt classes, and still make sure to come here and allow BC to tuck me in at night?

Hahaha, thanks for the compliment tim... I always thought my face looked a tad strange in that picture. That'* the "I'm fat and I know it, but I'm working on it and had to exert a LOT of energy to jump this high, let alone do a kick!" face.
