1st LSAT class

What an asshole. I met with Guro today at 11:30AM at our usual spot on the border of Glendale/Burbank, which has been perfect, for Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) training ... only for him to tell me to follow him to a new spot. His excuse: The horses peeing on the ground attracted too many bugs. So I drove after him all the way into Griffith Park, specifically Matt's neighborhood of Atwater. And I guarantee in future trainings I will never find that exact location.

For my own boring reference:
  • Practiced angles of attack with a twirl at the end of each strike.
  • Thrusts are now double gripped.
  • Counters to shot to my left collar bone: Wing block, over and under strikes to wrist ... 1) abaniko (fan strike) to head, or 2) stick uppercut and crash back down to head.
  • Counters to shot to my right collar bone: Outside sweep block, downward slash the hand, upward slash the elbow ... 1) abaniko the head, or 2) downward slash the neck/head and stick jab the (in any order) knee, ribs, and back of the ear.
  • We reviewed sumbrada (fighter flow drill).
End boring reference.

Went to guitar practice. Improvised a lot.

Went to my 1st LSAT class. As soon as I walked in, that annoying Filipina girl who was the conductor for my diagnostic test immediately directed, "Room 101," in a way as if I annoyed her enough already. We had been told there would only be 6 of us. Apparently, about 20 people signed up last second since then! There are no jackoffable chicks yet. The teacher is some Viet chick who is too nerdy that she's not cute. Boo.

1st new friend is named Ben. He shared how he was a bad guy for a student short film with a cool story that I'll leave here for my own notes if I ever want to steal it: Bad guys kidnap the wrong guy (good guy). But 1st bad guy decides they have to kill good guy to hide evidence. Good guy then wakes up in front of computer like, "That was a weird dream," and begins writing about it. 2nd bad guy is later shown watching good guy from a distance. Twist: Flash back reveals that 2nd bad guy killed 1st bad guy to save good guy. (And if they forgot to copyright it, I'm stealing it.)

Ended the night with WWE NXT, a.k.a. The Daniel Bryan Show (or as we cool fans will forever know him as "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson.
