Unorthodox

First of all, my mother has finally given the okay sign for me to shift courses. I know that it is not really a good time to do so, but this is for the best. I can do more good with MAS than IE, so I should be okay. Hopefully, I can pull it off.

Also, I might have gotten myself another job. It really isn’t much, but it should give me extra cash for training and my personal needs, as well as more savings in the bank. I’m going to need at least 10,000php to progress further in earning more cash.

With that, I would be able to train in both the JKD gym and another fight gym somewhere, most likely that in Boxing, Muay Thai, or hopefully an MMA gym. If ever, I’d be able to learn more techniques, work more on my conditioning, and do some more sparring. With all of that combined, I would like to get into some smokers by near the end of the year. I will need some fight experience if I ever plan on progressing further in martial arts.

The first steps must be taken first before any progress can be achieved. I pray for both luck and strength so that I can pull through.

As if East Timor isn’t already violent enough.

Basically, East Timor is like an Indonesian version of the Philippines. Aside from the fact that it used to be a part of Indonesia and that the people speak Spanish, there are a lot of similarities between that country and the Philippines. What happened now is that their version of the NPA or Abu Sayyaf was able to successfully attack the president head on, although at the expense of their leader.

Well, Pres. Ramos-Horta is now in Australia receiving treatment. Let’s see if he pulls through.

 Just like always, all I can ever do is just to think positively and drift through this madness, hoping for the best. I have been rededicating myself to studies, as well as training. I am re-simplifying my life right now in an attempt to salvage whatever I have left.

I am not wearing my dogtags again until I get this right again.

As for this blog, it is going to be a bit difficult trying to update this time and again since I have been concentrating on my martial arts blog. I really want it gain some credentials and a PageRank so that I can actually get something out of it for a change. I’ll be constantly working on this blog as well, but not in such intensity. Someday, this blog will have some solid backing behind it, but I guess it will be a year or so before that ever happens. I am new to this blogging thing, after all. I am not used to journalizing whatever the hell is happening in my life.

Hopefully, I can do good here and everywhere else. I just need some support, perhaps.

Something has been wrong with me lately.

All of a sudden, I have been losing my edge. Is it because of inactivity or complacency? Or maybe is it the loneliness? I have been falling back several steps backwards since mid-January, and I have absolutely no idea why. I could use some help, but who’d help me anyway at a time like this?

I am now doing all I can to remedy the situation. I shall go back to serious training and focus more on work and school. Maybe I have not been focusing enough. But still, how could I have been faltering so much lately?

I shall also intensify my efforts in writing. Maybe that can clear my head for a little while…
