I worked from late morning until the evening, with breaks in between.  But recently, my new school is my new favorite place, so it&#8217;s all good.<\/p>\n<p>I held a meeting with kids teachers on Tuesday. (I led a meeting! :O) and we did a lot of great brain storming on activities, methods, etc.  Very productive, I thought.  I hope everyone else thought so&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, one teacher sat in my lesson, and I think it went pretty well! \ud83d\ude00  The kids were really cute and cooprative.  Only 3 :D.  As opposed to 6 kids as in my previous school.  I met some nice students and got some good feed back from them.  They said they liked my lessons.  <\/p>\n<p>I ate a piece of banana sushi for lunch?! What?  Strangely good&#8230;with chocolate sauce. :O I scraped that off&#8230;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/banana-sushi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/banana-sushi.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"banana sushi\" width=\"374\" height=\"426\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-816\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I raced to MMA sparring and sparred hard for 30 minutes after work. 9:40 PM- to 10:15ish.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m trying some new techniques, and was partially successful, partially not.  I got tossed a bunch of times by Hitomi (of course) and I got her down a few times, but she guillotined me one of those times.  I have to keep reminding myself that I can&#8217;t suddenly get perfect overnight.  It takes practice.  I&#8217;m holding myself to really high standards.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m happy to be closer to the AACC team.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/aacc-aug-women.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/aacc-aug-women.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"aacc aug women\" width=\"442\" height=\"357\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-817\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am part of the team.  But I&#8217;m freelance.  Ah, it&#8217;s confusing. I don&#8217;t know what I am!  I know I&#8217;m Roxy! \ud83d\ude00  That much is certain! The &#8220;happy warrior&#8221; thing is kind of on hold, though. lol<\/p>\n<p>I was chatting a lot with Hitomi (Akano) after sparring, and she told me about her recovery drinks and how she drinks BCAA and stuff throughout the day.  I&#8217;m starting to wonder if I can&#8217;t stop eating all day because I&#8217;m not getting enough nutrition?  I think my diet is balanced well, but due to my metabolism?  I mean, I had a HUGE breakfast at 5:15ish, but I&#8217;m already hungry and it&#8217;s only 7:45 AM&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m on ep 279 of One Piece.  A certain someone just screamed, &#8220;I want to live!&#8221; to Luffy and is group who went to save her. \ud83d\ude00  Fans will know which part I&#8217;m talking about.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my fun training and happy work situation, my &#8230;.well, results of my last fights 3 are like injuries.  They still hurt a lot.  Every day I feel them.  They drag me down.  They hang over me like a dark cloud.    I want to fight.  I want to win. It hurts a lot, but I have to just smile and carry on. My next fight is not set yet.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/be-my-nakama.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/be-my-nakama.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"be my nakama\" width=\"433\" height=\"345\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-821\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuesday and Wednesday were pretty busy at work.
