Playing Catch-Up

5 02 2010

I saw a recent video a few days ago  of the taekwondo facility I used to train in and realized that the kids and adults that were at my level (yellow) are now green. Along with being shocked, I was/am jealous. I have no good reason to be. It is not like they had an unfair advantage; I’m the one who quit. But even still, it’s a little daunting to think of rejoining class with the same people who I used to struggle along with but now consider them my superiors.

Anyway, my reason for posting is to say that I’ve decided to rejoin. After giving it some though and considering the advice of others, I’ve decided that, at this time, it is best for me to do whatever helps me enjoy life. Of course I’m not saying that this is better than college; it’s just the best choice for me right now. If the time comes and the feeling’s there, then I’ll reenroll into school, but until then I have taekwondo.

Much love and best wishes.





Hello Again.

22 01 2010

It’s been a very long while since my last post. The last time I was around, I was pumped, ready for whatever the world of taekwondo could throw at me. But now, I’m unable to say that much.

I quit taekwondo believing that I was days away from beginning school. Well, things didn’t turn out the way I’d like them to and I ended up withdrawing one day before my official first day of class. Since then, I’ve been in a stump, unable to decide what to do from here. Of course I want to continue my training in taekwondo and go as far as physically and mentally possible, but, as we all know, that also costs money.

I’m not worried about the fees, I can manage them, it’s just that each time I consider rejoining, I’m asked about school and how would I manage to save for it if I’m only spending what I have. To be quite honest, attending school is a big, hot-pink question mark for me at this time, and because the question is hot-pink, it is something that I’d like to avoid for now. Even still, I can’t help but worry and wonder…
Much love and Best wishes to you all.
