Drumroll please!

Well, here it is: my official blog. No more myspace faux-blog for me! This blog probably won't change the world, but hey, it might, I don't want to downplay my communication skills & ability to sway people to my point of view.

I'm watching Greg Giraldo's Midlife Vices on demand & psyching myself up for my Filipino Martial Arts class tonight. Did you know Arnis, Kali & Eskrima are all different? That's one thing I've learned so far; the three names are considered the same here in the US but they are each from different parts of the Philippines. Even the website I linked to above say they are all basically the same. Well, we're more focused on Arnis at my school and my instructor Lorne Therrien was taught by the late Remy Presas. 

I'm obviously new to FMA, I only started this month, but my background in kickboxing as taught by instructors who come from a kung fu background has helped me adapt to this style fairly well. Shout out to South Shore YMCA Kickboxing class! I'm also taking Womens Thai Kickboxing class on Saturdays which is far more similar to what I'm familiar with. I'm interested primarily in self-defense & that is the focus while also being very cardio-intensive. Cardio is my weakness but I know I will only get better as I practice more.

Ok, that's enough scintillating insights! I wonder should I come up with some sort of witty catchphrase to end my blogs? Meh.

Seacrest out!

p.s. I'm thinking of copying some of my old myspace blogs here because just one post is kind of sad.

  1. I had no idea you did that stuff. I'm glad that I never pissed you off.
