Yesterday, I started getting all teary-eyed on the microscope at work when I was thinking about why I was alive. Sometimes I think life is just a ridiculous waste of energy necessary to keep the world in balance. You know, why not keep people alive who do good deeds? Well, anyways, I found something to keep me in the game: sparring.
I finally got to spar with another girl last night! It was hella cool, I was being a whiney bitch before we started b/c I was nervous and b/c she is going to be boxing at the fights on Saturday so I didn't want to mess her up (I wasn't sure if I could or not, but better safe than sorry). She's got a good jab, I think, and she's a mover. My b/f and trainer were proud of me afterwards. Everyone was watching, funny how heads turn when girls are fighting. People were telling me that I have a good hook and the girl told me that I've got a hell of a right and to never hit her with it again . Hee hee!
SO, I can't wait to do it again. I was nervous and I held back a lot but so did she (I think) cuz she knew it was my first time sparring w/ anyone other than my boyfriend. I sparred w/ him afterwards and MAN, he fuckin hit me w/ a bad ass hook that knocked my head gear out of place! Ha ha, I it.

All right, SG Homies, it's on. Next Saturday, June 12 at 2 pm there will be some amateur boxing (three 3-minute rounds w/ headgear) at my boxing gym. I won't be fighting, but I'll be there! I'm not sure how many fights there will be, but it should be going for hours. $15 at the door.
King's Boxing Gym

AND, we should go to SquidNasty and Kayla's Birfday BBQ in Oaktown afterwards.

And yeah, that cover of Cell paper blew me away. Unfortunately I'm not quite there with my work. Hopefully journal of neurobio though, I've got a paper in the works.
