Exciting news!

So I was at work the other day and was chatting in the break room when someone brought up that he read my blog. That was quite exciting. He also mentioned that I hadn't updated in a while. Well, considering I have loyal viewers out there, here we go!

Life's been pretty regular. Work all week, karate some evenings, hang out with coworkers on Friday nights. I've been enjoying what I've been doing at work, but I need to start getting some studying for tests done before February, which isn't that far away.

Karate has been a lot of fun, and a good release/workout. I started back up with kickboxing. The kickboxing I do here is a lot like what I was doing in Taiwan (cardio-based with full body workout) but instead of a crazy Danish guy yelling at me it's my classmates from karate (and the classes are one hour instead of two...and indoors). I have been helping out with the kids' class on the weekends which is fun and scary. So far my main goal has been to get them to do the moves without them making goofy faces into the mirrors.

I've been meaning to post these for a while...here are some pics of my apartment! (I took these a while ago)

That's my living room. Note the awesome TV and my karate equipment on the couch.

That's how the kitchen table looks. That was probably its cleanest. It seems to accumulate a lot of random stuff. I got the chairs (along with the desk in the last picture) from the same guy on Craigslist for a pretty good deal.

My kitchen, from two angles.

That's my huge fancy bed. I need stuff to put on the walls.

Seeing all those pictures of my place all clean makes me want to clean again. I think I'll get at that. Thanks for checking in!
