I've dreaded this day all year! Today is the day of that fliping karate course held by the chief Instructor and his higher grade Instructors from within the association. I believe there will be about 10 Instructors including Roger who are going to be teaching us. My lesson is going to be about 3 - 4 hours long. The courses are so intence, so knackering - they're killers! Besides going on holiday this course is the other reason why I wanted to get fitter. My mind is fitter but the body won't comply if ya know what I mean!

Last year I got 'told off' because I couldn't do the splits, it didn't embarass me much but I thought to myself then that you won't be doing that to me again matey! I promised myself I would be able to do the box splits perfectly - all the way down by the next course, which is this one, but I still can't do them!

I would' love throw a massive sicky to get out of this course but I need to have all those body killing instructors to sign my licence, without they're signiture I can't grade for my blue belt in a few weeks - arrrgh!

Oh well, If one of them asks me to punch in a demonstration i'll make sure I won't miss, take that you FFFFF... land one on the end of their chins. lol.

Wish me well, and pray I come home intact, sigh... this is going to be a long day.

I did 2 hours non stop, it was 2 hours of fighting techniques, gawd I was ((((knackered)))) Then I was struck down with period pain and got driven home. At least I got my license signed I went to bed as soon as I got in, phewww hard work - not the kind of thing I like waking up to.

The months of misery can lead to confidence for a lifetime. It's worth it!

I sweated for a signiture lol but your right it is worth it in the long run

And then kick ‘em in the head, just because the legs don’t do splits, doesn’t mean yer not a high kicking mofo!

Now see, this is another good reason why I wasn’t ever taught any martial arts etc…I would no doubt use it fer “bad” ####...

Well wishing to you!

Thanks dazeymae, you made me go there with a smile on my face, everytime I accidently on purpose hit one of the instructors I thought of you

When I first read your title, I thought it said "I'm NOT pregnant". I was like WHAT?! I missed where you thought you were...LOL

Good luck in class, when its over, go home and throw your feet up a while and relax.

I think I was more shocked than 'you' when I read what 'you' wrote I'm like - do I really have alzheimers like when the hell did that happen
