<\/a>\nOn Monday, we went to the Groundslam dojo together! I sparred a lot with him, Celine, and I sparred Lion Takeshi for the first time! :O He asked me to spar just when I was gonna take a break…but he would have kicked my butt even if I weren’t tired. \ud83d\ude41 He’s like Shooto champ. lol I just wish I could have done better. Grar ;_; He thought it was hilarious to pepper my face with punches when I was clinching him against the wall, trying to work a take down. I was so focused I wasn’t being bothered…but I bet if he punched for real I would. Which was probably why he was laughing. lol<\/p>\n
Tony showed me this cool secret attack move that is called….! I’m not telling. XD I’m gonna work on it more. Mhwahahaha I’m having a lot of fun training with you, Tony! \ud83d\ude00 Steve showed us lots of leg locks. I definitely have my preference for leg-locks, but we worked them all.

I then taught Katsumura-san English for a while and then did various things in the afternoon. Finally mailed my Dad’s present! That was a big accomplishment in my day. I hope it is perfect!<\/p>\n

I was soooooooooooo disappointed. ~_~; It took a while to get there and I really wanted to show him….. ;___; Bakabakabakabakaaaaaaa! We should have just gone to the one in Shinjuku. I even checked the website, but misunderstood the interwebs. –;<\/p>\n
We ended up finding another place. I still had a lot of fun. XD <\/p>\n
Today will be another busy day. I have some stuff going on at my work-place and related to my company. It’s a little stressful. I hope everything turns out well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
On Sunday, I worked and then hung out with Tony in Kawasaki in the evening. (My friend from California who’s visiting Japan! :D) I took him to all my favorite shops. XD It was amusing and fun.
