July 18, Injured heels and rainy days. { 1:20 AM }
Injured my heel recently.
Hurts like crap when I step down hard now, it sends this freaking strong jolt of pain up my hamstring muscles. Troy told me to rest for abit, and as much as I hate doing that, I guess I'll concede for once. Just this once.
School has been mundane, and I just realised that not working for one week makes you feel like not working ever again. However, I must and I will! There's too much to buy and too little to spend.
I was recently approached by some guy from SEG who wanted to start an MMA club in NYP and I love the idea. Know what else I love? The idea of setting up an "open challenge" concept, whereby any other CCA can send its people to come and test their mettle. No strings attached, it just gives everyone more exposure to what other fighting styles are like.
Yeah, and I'd love to see Dragonboaters, Kendoka, Sakuran Club Cosplay Clubbers and whatever motley crew of misfits come down for a few rounds. Serious!
I hate the term martial arts. It's one of the world's most blanket terms, and yet it sounds degrading. Whenever I hear this term I'm reminded of a tiny, old, Asian man flying through the sky. Another term I hate? Sparring. Seriously, it sounds super low-class; like something secondary school kids would say.
So from now on I'm just gonna address these two terms as such: Fighting style will replace the term Martial Arts, and Brawling will replace the term Sparring.
(P.S.: I know this post sounds so blah, but it can't be helped - I'm feeling down thanks to this bleeding rain.)
