Balance

The demo yesterday was amazing! It was so cool to be a part of and to kind of stand back and watch unfold. I think that the seniors really enjoyed our performance and have asked that we come back again with more to show them. I really enjoyed watching my teammates perform their forms, techniques and board breaks, I think everyone looked fantastic! I enjoyed preparing for this demo, although getting up at 4 am to get ready for work before the practice stretched my limits. Well, probably going back after work to teach and practice some more is probably what really tested my abilities. I still liked it! Mostly because everyone else was willing to do it too. I usually come up with these hair-brain ideas and no one else wants to do them, this time everyone said yes!!!
Once again it is the end of a long week and I am finding myself saying Hi to the family that I neglected all week. They never complain and are always supportive but I feel guilty when I spend more time at the kwoon than home and I am when I am here it is time to sleep. I know that it is about balance and this next week the scales will tip a little bit more towards normal, with no evening shifts and no extra practices, I might feel a little less stretched.
I seem to have picked up a head cold along the way, so I feel a bit rambley in my blog today and a bit sleepy, I will sign off for now.....
Those are my thoughts for this week.

I saw the video Sifu Brinker posted on his blog and your chuks looked awesome! You and Sihing Regier were like perfectly in time. It was a great show for sure and I think your hard work really showed. Congratulations.
