And I’m not all that great, but I am really enjoying it. Last night, I finally started trying to be more offensive instead of just a master of defense. (Glad learning to fence doesn’t say anything at all about my personality). It’s really fun though the big welt on my stomach really hurts. And last night I realized I’m not too bad right handed either. It was kind of fun switching from my left hand and realizing I wasn’t too bad at it.
