I am sitting here watching "Clerks 2" just trying to relax. I had a pretty good day yesterday. I bought my headgear last night for fighting. Now I have just about everything that I need for fighting except a ring bucket, a water bottle, and some Vaseline. But I have everything else like my kickboxing gloves, kickboxing headgear, my cup, my mouthpiece, a first aid kit, jump rope, hand wraps, & towel.

I have had 2 sparring matches so far. I need a total of 25 matches in order to test for the next level in kickboxing. I had one match last week Monday with my friend Yosshio and I had one match yesterday with my friend Yosshio. I guess that I did OK. When I use to fight about 6 years ago, I would get hit in the nose and my nose would start bleeding. The only thing that was good about that is I bleed like a fighter. Once I got hit my nose would only bleed for a minute or two at the most.

Now when I get hit in the nose, my nose don't bleed anymore. Since I have been back in training, I have been hit in the nose at least 3 times so far and my nose still has not bleed. I guess that is good for me. Especially yesterday when I was fighting with Yosshio and he hit me in the nose. The only bad thing with yesterday's fight was I gave my friend Yosshio a fat lip when I hit him in the mouth. I also caught him in the side of his face when I hit him with a back fist. I hope that Yosshio is OK.
