Day 8

Day: 8 Wednesday 11.28.01
Status: Beginner - 8th Lesson (Last lesson, sad)
Learned: I have learned to pay attention to people reaction to certain things and my agility has really improved. I also catch on faster to other people's trends when they move. I have been thinking more of what is my opponent is going to do then what I'm going to do instead of just what I'm going to do. All in all it was fun.

Practice: Today we did about the normal footwork in which I have down now. Practiced went on as normal. I didn't have that much fun practicing because I really wanted to fence since it was my last day.

Fenced: After practicing, I fenced three people: Aksone, the little girl (I think her name is Eileen not quite sure), and a new guy I'd never seem before. I won all three of the bouts. I didn't want to lose on my last day fencing.

Thoughts: Hey I guess all good things have to end. I didn't take any pictures today because I wanted to get as much practice in as I could. Today was my last day of fencing lessons. I like fencing. I wish I could continue it, but transportation and the time are hard to do every week. I've fallen back in some of my classes because I'd rather practice than do my homework. Oh well, its okay the experience was worth it. I'll probably go to see Simon in about March or so. No matter what I know I have to go back there at least once because I need to show Simon the website and have him sign off on my hours. I'm just going to have to wait until next year to see his new facility.
