bluejay Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Hi everyone. My name is Elizabeth and I'm 19 years old. I have been poking my head around here for about a month or so. Now I want to formally to introduce myself. I love to read, play chess, backpack, hike, camp, and bike ride. The only sports I'm good at is skiing and throwing the discus in Track. I love skiing and wish I had the time and money to do it all the time. I threw the disk for five years and I can't throw it anymore because of my education. I want to put all my time into my education so I can go to Veterinarian School. Right now, I go to Spokane Community College and I'm going to take Advanced Karate. I took Beginning Karate because I always been interested in the martial arts. In addition, it is a good form of exercise and I wanted to stay in shape. Plus, I knew it would help my cordination and ballance. At first, I didn't even know anything about martial arts. For example, I didn't even know that there are so many different styles. Now I'm hooked because I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!! I want to keep studying karate for my entire life. My Sensei is Teruo Chinen. Has anybody heard or met him? I think he is really cool. I've been studying Goju-Ryu for about 2 and 1/2 months. I'm a white belt and I just got my 9th kyu last night!!!!! Hurray!!!!!!! Lizzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
