XD  I almost got it on another guy in sparring but I ran out of time!!  We did striking drills and a few rounds of sparring.<\/p>\n<p>I went home at noon, did laundry and a few things, then met Megumi for our English lesson.<br \/>\nI post on my Facebook, &#8220;We&#8217;re practicing English!&#8221; and then people message me, &#8220;Oh Roxanne your English is so good.&#8221;  Are they joking, because it&#8217;s not funny.  I don&#8217;t say, &#8220;I&#8217;m teaching her English&#8221; because my company doesn&#8217;t want us to teach outside of our jobs, because they don&#8217;t wanna lose business, so I&#8217;m just trying to be politically correct. -_-;;;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/megumi-fuji-in-bigboy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/megumi-fuji-in-bigboy.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"megumi fuji in bigboy\" width=\"387\" height=\"518\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-376\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI ate too much salad at the all-you-can-eat salad bar in Big Boys. ^^;<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t have enough time to go home, so I took a walk while waiting for the AACC evening class to start.<br \/>\nI ended up sitting down on a bench and couldn&#8217;t keep my eyes open.  I fell asleep, but I felt like I never really woke up.  I had no energy and was sleepy and exhausted.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if I shouldn&#8217;t have taken the nap, or if I was just exhausted from my day and the stress anyway.  I struggled through warm ups, hit mits, and Abe-san showed me a few combinations that I happened to already know, so I was able to do it and got praised for a change. lol  (in striking)<\/p>\n<p>So I was able to walk away not feeling like a total failure as we went into the grappling part of the class.  I learned a few good ones thanks to Abe-san and Megumi, who re-explained everything to me when I was slow getting it.<\/p>\n<p>I was determined to have fun sparring, but my body wouldn&#8217;t cooperate.  I tried sparring Nakanishi-san and just ended up getting mounted and choked multiple times, so I went home -o-;;  aaaarg.  Looking at the clock in the locker room, I saw that I&#8217;d been training for an hour and 45 minutes. o.O;;; so it wasn&#8217;t short, or anything like that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This morning I wanted to lift weights because I decided that I wasn&#8217;t sore enough.  I&#8217;m exhausted energy-wise.  I just ate some beef and veggies and a rice ball, and now I have an upset stomach. for no reason. wtf, intestines.  I wish I knew what was wrong with you. Oh well.<\/p>\n<p>I have work today, after I meet my friend Kozo to &#8220;practice&#8221; English.  I have to go prepare now.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, I just found this Iphone screencap I took because it was funny.
