fence again

Because I doubt I’ll take up fencing again before I get my black belt in karate, and I really want to finish the program. One thing at a time.

Argh it’s been over a year. The truth is, when I talked to my b/f, he said he’d do whatever I wanted to do – fencing, or some other form of martial arts, but he reminded me that one is expensive and way out of the way, while the other is cheap and right down the street. I want to do both… but the longer I don’t pick fencing back up, the less likely it seems that I will ever do it again.

I can’t chase everything, but dammit, I can chase martial arts and fencing. If I put this aside, I will do it again some day.

I changed my goal from fence more, to fence again. That makes me sad.

I still miss fencing. I have not fenced in six months… if I’m not careful, it will become a year, and then maybe forever. I want to fence again, but I do not have the money for equipment, and I have to put my job search before everything. I’m so sad. That is all.

I thought that when I moved, I would keep fencing, because I know a fencer here, but we have not practiced at all. I need to improve in epee, and eventually be in a tournament.
