Really Long Overdue Update

I really suck at this blogging thing. Been over 3 months since my last update. Several things happened:

1) Gained 3 more students:
Joy Beltran -- AAK Blackbelt living in New York
Grace Beltran -- Joy's Sister
Mike Rosario -- Grace's Boyfriend

2) After a month of training, the Beltran sisters had to drop out due to personal reasons. They said they'll be back once the dust has settled. According to my AAK colleagues, they keep there word when they say that they'd be back. This has happened before.

3) My wife's cousin, came over to visit. Boy, she's got stories and issues! Lovely lady, but a little coo-coo. Just got out of a whirlwind marriage and now she's jumping in another storm.

4) My wife and kid left for the Philippines last Nov. 25 for vacation. I spent my Thanksgiving with my siblings. House was really quiet and lonely without them. I'll be following them on Dec. 17.

5) Ricky Lim Sensei and Chino Veguillas Sempai of the AAK came over to visit last Nov. 26 and stayed until the 2nd of Dec. They were with old friends, Pedro "Poochie" Roldan Sempai and Brandy Mariano (He and I took our Shodan Test together). We had a blast and they turned my house into a frat dorm.

5) Completed 25% of my new Project. Damn! It's a pain in the butt!

6) Packing and cleaning up for my big trip to Manila. Can't wait to see the wife and kid!!!
