My Week in a Nutshell

I'm still sticking with posting daily on UBBT chat. Seems to be working for getting me to log. I like giving myself kindness challenges before my day starts, makes it more fun and it's way more fun now that people are joining in.

I'm finding Lao Gar quite difficult to grasp but I'm learning it. I keep trying to remember everything the Sifus are teaching me, but there's alot so I'm expecting to be corrected alot, which I'm ok with. I'll admit to not practicing my ropedart this year. I hit a brick wall with it. I'm ordering a video online and I'm hoping to learn more.

I had an awesome Canada Day. It was awesome how the day went and how everyone worked together so well. I actually did Da Mu Hsing in the park with everyone, doesn't technically count as a public performance but I'm still counting it anyway for myself. I also got to have my family over at my place for a bbq. My dad came to visit from Ontario, I only get to see him once every few years or so. After the bbq my dad and I headed to the legislature grounds to watch the fireworks so it was a really long but really great day.

I wish more people would join Sanshou, I'm not sure how everyone is getting their sparring reps in without it. I had a few people telling me when I started that they were going to be in the class, and then those people never showed up again...Is it me? I swear I'll start showering and wearing deoderant if that'll help... :) There were only 2 people in class tonight. That made me sort of sad, I'm nervous that if people don't start showing up that we may lose that class. I don't want that to happen because this is a big challenge for myself and I've been sticking with it.

I'm also struggling with lion dance, my feet and hands don't work together very well, I'm sure I'll get it eventually though, it'll probably just take me longer and I'll have to ask lots of questions.

Anyway, that's my week in a nutshell. I haven't been mirroring this to the I Ho Chaun blog because for some reason my copy/paste won't work. I am getting a new computer soon though, so hopefully that will change.
