Shittlesticks.
So last night there was a meeting about the China trip an hour before sanshou class. So we all sat around in a circle and ate blueberry pie and took notes, and sifu was back and all was right and merry in the world.
The meeting went longer than expected, so I missed the warmup round. No biggie. So I saunter out and get changed and found out THERE WAS A FUCKING BELT TEST!!!
I was in no shape to test for my black belt, and it reflected, not to mention one of the techniques we were tested on I had never seen before that night.
Then I found out that I somehow missed a trip payment ($500)
Owe for my China Visa ($150)
Owe for additional fees ($175)
Probably owe for the test I *probably* failed ($100)
bye bye stimulus check, and then some.

Shoot, I failed a blood test one time.
Enjoy the Orient--Just don't bring back a bride! Take it from me!

If I dropped $925 bucks into my 48 pickup, I'd be driving to your apartment and attempting my first ever burnout behind a flathead ford.

Yeah dude, that would be pretty sick...give it time. That thing is going to be so effin' sweet. Plus, there's a Yankees/Red Sox game tonight. Added bonus.
Oh, and this months National Geographic is a special issue on China. Just China. No other articles whatsoever. Just China. You want it?

You should come train with my sensei. He's a half Chinese, half Japanese (but mostly Chinese) little man who hardly speaks any English but he gets his point across very clearly. He'll help you pass your test with flying colors.

Ehh. It wasn't my skill that lacked. I'm too drunk right now to go into an angry tirade as to what exactly happened...but for argument's sake, where abouts does your sensei reside?

He lives about half an hour away from Downtown LA. It's a place by the water where I lived before moving. He uses the ocean as a comparison and it drives me nuts because I keep wanting to laugh since he talks like Yoda... Actually, he kind of looks like Yoda too.
