Well..the big news. I passed my test this morning w/ flying colours! That was by far the most grueling, exhausting thing I have ever done in my entire life. I knew it was going to be hard, but 8 rounds of sparring w/ Jon and Mr. Mike of 5 minutes each?! 'Twas HELL! But it was worth it. This entire month of getting up at 6 and working harder then I've ever worked before has been worth it. I'm now an Apprentice Instructor and I can train others in savate. I'm so happy!
After my test I had a half hr. private riding lesson (exactly how crazy am I you ask? VERY VERY CRAZY) which went very well. Katie set up a fun, challenging course for me involving a huge oxer and one very very odd jump that I went over 3 different times all at different angles during that course. She also gave me some serious praise. She said I've come so far since I started working with her she can't believe it (which is true) and that I will undoubtedly be one of the best riders on my school's team.
After lesson I said g'bye to Easter until Thanksgiving (I'm crying inside, I'll miss that little witch) and then got my meningitis shot (oh the joy) and now I'm procrastinating cleaning out the inside of my car and packing some more. Later tonight going out to dinner w/ mom and dad and going to see a movie w/ Ben, Jo and Sam.
I'm getting very annoyed waiting for Steve the Pirate the Second to come (my new cell phone) and I feel like listening to the 3 Doors Down "Away from the Sun" CD (hence the title of this post).
At any rate...ADIEU!
