Yes, best of luck. Remember, the more you practice the luckier you get.

 

I'll expect a full report on my desk first thing Monday morning. :wink:

Leaving on a Jet plane...isn't that a song?

 

Anyway, Good luck....and safe trip

 

Yeah...Chantel Kreznauviak...I think I spelled that right.

 

Anyway,

 

I'm in my hotel room in Las Vegas right now, my room mate brought along a lap top.

 

Today I competed in my forms division, Traditional Hard Forms, Intermediate. I performed the form Pyung Ahn E-Dan. There were eight other people in the division, including my friend Jessica who did the same form.

 

My final scores were:

 

8.86

 

8.87

 

8.89

 

I took first. I think my technique was good but it was close, so the deciding factor ended up being that I had a lot more power than anyone. I'm stoked. Roland made a video so if possible I will post it when we get back, as well as pictures.

 

Tomorrow is point sparring. Wish me luck!

A bit of trivia:

 

Leaving on a Jet Plane was written by John Denver, which became a big hit when recorded by Peter, Paul and Mary in 1967. Denver was born Henry John Deutschendorf, Jr on December 31, 1943.

*Bangs head into desk*

 

You're bored dude. :D

 

Anyway, I'm back from Las Vegas!

 

I took second out of four in my sparring division...but we watched the tape, and while it may sound like I'm being bitter...I should have won the match.

 

We watched the tape five or six times. My opponent ended up winning the match 6-4. The problems were this:

 

Twice, he was given a point for lead hand punches to the body, which is not supposed to be worth anything.

 

I very, very clearly hit him in the head with a Hook Kick, and I wasn't given any points for it, though I should have received two.

 

Overall, however, I am feeling great about the whole thing. I NEVER thought I would do well at all at a tournament this size, much less taking first and second. Now I've got something to brag about ;)

 

Thanks again everyone for all the support!

 

:D

Congrats on your success! But next time, don't leave the decision up to the judges. DOMINATE!
