Well let's see...I've been doing Taekwondo since December 7, 1997...so almost four years. I am currently awaiting my black belt results and am competing in the Adult division. i have been to the Jr. Olympics in San Antonio, Texas. I am studying under Wayne and Craig DeRosa at Chung Ma's in .... They're cool people. They get my seal of approval.

I used to study under Master Zohar at the now defunct school, US Tae Kwon Do Academy. The sign still remains though. A reminder of a good dream gone bad.

US TKD Academy was a pretty cool school. Great location for me (it was five minutes away) and the people their were cool. Very nice. It's seems like most TKD people are. I guess that's because if you're not, other people will kick your ass later. That must be it.


some cool people I met there

Kimmie: the cool, red head girl, who played rugby and will kick your ass. though she has a weakness for cute lil' kids and hot guys. we all love Kimmie!!! part of the Thursday night bar troop.

Sammy: also part of the Thursday night bar troop. I think I still owe him a hot chocolate or something. used to mumble. I used to think it was because he was quiet. I didn't realize till later it was because he had a headache.

Gani: big guy....very funny too. the forty minute test he gave me for a stupid piece of tape was very funny. ha. ha. ha. but we still love you too Gani!!

Tanya: she's the person who started it all. she convinced me to try TKD out. my parents regret that day very much now. he he he. anyway, she's a good fighter, beautiful forms. also going to the Jr. Olympics. however because she's a black belt, she gets one of the first days of competition, while unlike her I have the ass last day. yay.

Nancy: poor Nancy, we both know the pains of a certain person, who thankfully went away to California with the rest of the nuts.

Blake: another good fighter and competitor. off now fighting the good fight for the US. side affects of TKD: it makes you crazy (you have to crazy to do this kind of stuff)

Lorna: just plain crazy. nice but crazy

Heather: jeez I almost forgot a fellow Thursday night bar trooper!!! we love Heather too!!! IBMer who unfortunately knows my vampire neighbor. they're all vampires I tell you!! or at least lousy drivers. anyway, Heather is always for a good time and for a laugh.

Florim: oh yes. i'm soooo sorry. did i forget to mention you?? i guess i did. oh well silly me. well let's see Florim's Gani's lil' brother. awww. you used to train with us at US TKD Academy but then you left, which in the end was a smart idea. all i remember was you were afriad to fight me cuz you thought i might kick you in the balls like i did to poor Blake (IT WAS AN ACCIDENT I SWEAR!!). and when i did fight you all i did was hit you once in the chest and that was it. but then you left you couldn't fight anymore becuz of your pretty face and you became a super-model. or was that an underwear supermodel? i forget these things...

and then you did karate... traitor

:P

i feel as though i'm forgetting some people...i'll remember later...










oh i forgot to mention the new people at Chung Ma's...oops

Stephie C.: she's my ditzy twin. people wonder who's crazier, i say i am. tee hee. ya but seriously she's a really cool cat and i'm glad i got to meet her and get to be such good friends with. i don't think i will ever forget our late night kvetching chats, San Antonio or red cones on bridges. good memories.

Isaiah: he like's to make fun of me and call me cracker girl. silly 1/2 cracker :P ya so any way, he's a good fighter, tho usually a bit of a jackass. and sometimes he's fun to hang out with. ps. he's been kicked out

J: Isaiah's older brother. he's cool. he's a mad fast fighter dude. he was part of the crew that went out in San Antonio, along with Isaiah and Stephie. for some reason everyone liked my brother, and i believe it was J who christened my brother as big dog....to me my bro's a big dork. ps. he's missing

Tanya: yes Tanya's at the new school...it was a deal we made to stick together...Chung Ma's been good to us.

Jeff: he was out for awhile due to back problems.he didn't talk to me at first but i think i'm cracking his exterior shell. he's talking tome more. anyway he's a really, really fast ass mofo fighter. and he hurts in all sort of degrees. my chest can attest to that. it was punishment for kicking him in the head.

Craiggy: he's still missing due to baseball activities. but he's cute and we miss him.

Stephanie W.: she's off at college at UNH. she was a cool cat. i felt bad tho, i always hit her in the head cuz she's so short. oops and sorry.

Christian: he's missing too. where do they go?

Wayne & Craig: the instructors at my new school. they're both pretty cool. they're funny though. Craig's older and shorter, while Wayne's younger and taller. though don't ask me why, but it took me forever to get who was who. i kept having to ask Tanya. it was quite humourous.

Tim: he's my current tkd bebe. unfortunately he lives 5 hours away.
