Shiny, Shiny . . . . .
Have you ever been stuck in a bag? Stuck and couldn't get out, and at the same time falling into a chasm of darkness......Struggling to get out, to stop falling, to free yourself?
Well, of course, you shouldn't have experienced this because it's impossible.
Nevertheless, life sometimes does seem to be very similar to this. It's sad that one can bag oneself up so easily and most of the time without even knowing it. Then, you just hope that you'll fall to a place where you can climb back up. The most wretched feeling is when you have no hope of climbing back up.......but, I guess sometimes I am too optimistic.
However, I'm the most realistic optimist that you'll find. I like to call myself layered. A thin blanket of cheeriness over a sea of realistic pessimism. But, if you go deep enough, under that sea is a bottom full with unexplained and unreasonable hope and optimism. (I haven't really reached deeper then this......I'm guessing that there is definitely more)
The layered me only makes me a bit more interesting to meet. (of course my friends will affirm to this)
Anyhow, this week is going much more fluidly then the last. I'm excessively sore today (mainly in my inner thigh and buttock) and am walking very awkwardly. Due to my first TKD class on campus, it was supposed to be only 1 and 1/2 hours, but it continued on for over two hours. The most interesting aspect of the class is the ever-so shiny head of the head instructor. I have never seen a head more bald and as shiny. It made me want to rub it like a bowling ball. I could see my reflection on his head. (I can probably go on and on........) Nonetheless, he was very agile and experienced - so it's all good. One can even conjecture that maybe a shiny head is the result of thirty years of TKD training.......??? But, there was about one hundred people there. It was pretty crowded with lots of awkward beginners. I started out with all the formality crap of being a new student and stuff. But, I got bored so I joined the old students in their kicking exercise. Everyone here seems to be quite self-conscious. (extremely self-conscious) But, all in all, it was moderately decent. I got sore so it was sufficient. I'll keep you updated on the shiny-ness.
But, other than that, I can't think of anything else now. I will link up a good SF picture soon.
Hope you enjoyed my rambling. C'est tout.
