OH JOY!!! A NEW POST!!! Yea. Its a new day and a new day means new challenges. I thought about going to see the movie seven pounds today starring Will Smith, Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson(I dont know if I spelled his last name right), and other people that I have seen before in other movies but I dont know there names. But I just didnt feel like seeing it today. I might see it this weekend. More likely I will see it this weekend. I just felt like staying home and watching boxing (the last airing of solo boxeo on telfutura) and after that watch cloverfield. I decided that I would rather watch the movie cloverfield in the comfort of my own home than to watch seven pounds and spend time out at the movies. And I was thinking about seeing yes man starring Jim Carey(I dont know if I spelled his first name right), but I was looking forward more to the movie seven pounds.

One thing I'm going to miss is the boxing program solo boxeo because I am a big fan of boxing. Since the ninth grade, I've been a fan of boxing. At one time I thought about becoming a boxer. I trained myself and had a punching bag and speed bag I used to work out on. I used to go crazy on the punching and speed bags. I use to work on them until my hands were raw. I love boxing. My favorite boxers are Ahmed Kaddour,Jack Johnson, Muhammad Ali, Rodgers Mtagwa, Mike Tyson, Roy Jones, Arturo Gatti, Miguel Cotto, Ruben "The Hurricane" Carter and probably my favorite boxer Manny "The PACMAN" Pacquiao. The reason why I didnt go into boxing is because I was afraid of the possibility brain damage. But I have always loved boxing since the ninth grade. I was starting to get interested in boxing in the eighth grade, but I overall became fascinated in boxing since high school because I thought of it to be a great way of self defense without someone telling you what to do and wasting money on a dicipline like karate and in the end getting nothing from it but wasted time and being just a vunerable as before you went into the discepline in the first place. I feel boxing was more effective as a fighting style when it came to protecting myself because I took karate and it was useless. It didnt teach me anything but that if you want to be a decent fighter, train and lern something that you feel is right for you, and if your going to be taught by someone, dont be taught by some one who will treat you like shit and train on you own time and will because you know whats best for yourself when it comes to you and your physical limits. I feel like that the best type of fighting style is the fighting style that you get stronger by you own training instead of learning under someone and having to learn under someone who can treat you like shit. But then again, I guess it comes down to who is teaching you. I should stop talking like this because as much as I feel like boxing has helped me out more than karate, I think probably that something like karate can be better if it were taught by someone who wasent an asshole and treats you like shit. But for me, I think boxing is more effective in a street fight than karate because in boxing, you are responsible for keeping your own strength up and can increase your own punching power, hand speed, stamina, and technique. While in karate, the people who taught me were to busy about how the stance of the move was and the Kata and memorizing the moves of the Kata, than actually trying to fight off someone who is trying to take your head off in a real street fight. But thats what I felt like when I trained in the karate school that I trained in. I'm not saying that al karate is bad, what I'm saying is that the experience I had in that karate school, and the fact that I feel that boxing is more effective in defending in a real fight, that I just dont really care that much about karate. I would be interested in something like Chinese martial arts like wushu or sanshou or Chinese kempo or wing chun or maybe Muay Thai or some submission fighting styles than taking karate if I wanted to learn how to fight.

But anyways, I think I'm done here. I feel like I've gone on long enough. Take care whoever reads this.
