As it turns out, Imperial is not butter. 
I do not wish to go back to the store, soooo I will look like I was attacked by a large heathen tomorrow. I can say however my virtue is still intact and his eye will be black and blue… and he only bled a little.
So, I’m going to Discovery Church here in Orlando, Melson (the former Melton) and Robbie hooked me up here and I was thinking I wanted to join a bible study or small group, anything really to get out and meet people. None of them looked appealing though until I hit “Kung Fu.†Yes, you heard it, my small group is Kung freaking Fu. Win. Anyways, it’s on Thursdays at 7:15pm, cool right? Well, I just got a job working for The Mouse and it’s full time so I don’t know what hours I will have for free time until Tuesday sadly, so I might not be able to continue.
BUT at least I know the basics of defending myself and how to hurt someone REALLY badly… They didn’t really teach us how to hurt someone though, that was an added bonus since my partner got about as serious as I did. Everyone else was going all nice and slow, we were like lightning speed, fists were flying everywhere, round house kicks were being blocked, it was cool. Anyways, I didn’t mean to punch him in the face. No really, I didn’t. ïŠ I tried to aim(link) my punches over his shoulder to avoid doing said move. We basically would try to start slow, but then we would escalate to matrix speed and he blocked my right but wasn’t fast enough to block my left punch and he didn’t swerve as planned (he’s good at swerving, like a boxer or something), so I got him in the glasses (good thing b/c my ring is somewhat sharp) and the nose. Good news is, there was only a little blood, and his glasses didn’t break, bad news is he will have a nice shiner tomorrow.
Mind you, I did not escape unscathed. Why I wish I had butter: starting at my wrists and ending at my elbows I’m bruising from blocking punches and his roundhouse kicks, as well as my right shin from my round house being blocked. Oddly enough my sides (where he repeatedly punched me, I hope he isn’t bruising there too) don’t hurt nearly as much as my poor wrists. So, what did I learn about myself? My right leg and arm do not like to move without each other… (kick then punch sometimes ended up being kick and punch, oops!). Slow motion is not for me. Matrix, on the other hand, is something I can do.
It was a crazy awesome work out, which was half the attraction. There was lots of laughing, lots of pain, some apologizing, and I met people. I was really good at some moves, and need practice at others. Overall it was a good time investment of an entire evening. I really hope I can get a schedule with my Thursdays off so I can continue this. And now if you will excuse me, I’m off to the shower, and find some ice…
