I&#8217;m glad we talk sometimes&#8230;I miss him and Brittany the most.  Plus I can keep up my Japanese when I talk to him. I should write more blogs in Japanese, actually. :\/  But I can&#8217;t seem to catch Brittany on Skype! \ud83d\ude41 I&#8217;m so sad!  <\/p>\n<p>Then I ate a bit of my power food (ice cream) and went to Syndicate at 10 AM.  My stitches are out, but I still can&#8217;t train for another week, or it&#8217;ll open up. \ud83d\ude41 I jumped rope for two rounds, did some back exercises until my back hurt too much, and did like 4 rounds on a bag with a Brazilian guy Ranan?  He&#8217;s cool.  <\/p>\n<p>I did my homework, coach! \ud83d\ude42 Damnit I&#8217;m going to get it right, for sure!! <\/p>\n<p>I tried not to watch everyone sparring and training hard across the room. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>I got chiropractic treatment by Steckel and I no longer feel like I&#8217;m gonna break in half when I stand up.  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>After grabbing a quick bit of Frozen Yogurt at my favorite place &#8220;Tops N Bottoms,&#8221;  I drove to Victoria and Brandon&#8217;s place.  How Brandon managed to help carry the couch on CRUTCHES is totally beyond me. You crazy loonie otaku you. \ud83d\ude42 But I love you both.  And because they managed to fit their entire couch in the back of their minivan illustrates that they&#8217;ve mastered some kind of shrinkability powers.<\/p>\n<p>Man, I&#8217;m lucky to have such awesome magical friends. \ud83d\ude00  AND NOW I HAVE A COUCH.  WOO.  <\/p>\n<p>Then I got a phone call from my temporary apartment I&#8217;d left, saying THREE more boxes arrived. OH YAY! MY CLOTHES! Belts! Playstation! Mugs! Toys! <strike>Stuffed animals<\/strike> old friends!  \ud83d\ude00  So I went and got those!  I can&#8217;t wait to unpack, but I have a sinking feeling I won&#8217;t have places to put them. I&#8217;m starting to worry that this apartment will hold both me AND my mother.<\/p>\n<p>I helped out with teaching the kids&#8217; class at Syndicate with Chris! \ud83d\ude00  That was fun! \ud83d\ude42  Except some boy with a &#8220;NINJAS RULE&#8221; T shirt kept running away from his opponents during sparring, wouldn&#8217;t engage, and then got mad?   It kind of confused me&#8230;<br \/>\nOne kid was like &#8220;HEY I SAW YOU ON TV!!&#8221; and tried to ask me questions, and I was like, &#8220;Okay keep drilling now!&#8221;  \ud83d\ude42  <\/p>\n<p>I ate two packs of yummy smoked turkey breast (TURKEY!!!), swam a bit (I have a POOL!) went in the hot tub (I HAVE A FREAKING HOT TUB!!) and now I&#8217;m leeching off the free wifi at the pool, cuz I still don&#8217;t have it in my apartment yet.<\/p>\n<p>I did this interview.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/therearenoroads.com\/mind-open\/japanese-teacher-blogger-ultimate-fighter-contestant-interview-roxanne-modafferi\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/therearenoroads.com\/mind-open\/japanese-teacher-blogger-ultimate-fighter-contestant-interview-roxanne-modafferi\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning I woke up, ate, unpacked a tad (one of my big boxes came!), did internet stuff, and talked to Goto-san for an hour.
