Share the LOVE. Mas Oyama Memorial Tournament.

What can I say? My father created such a great belief system that I am surrounded by wonderful people, because of him!

I've been running on too much coffee though...

There was something slightly different this year than the other in the past. There was an air of confidence in all the Honbu Committee members and the Branches and the Dojo's.

It was so nice to meet everyone. And the effort they put in to support the tournament, take the grading and really be proactive member of Kyokushin kaikan was so moving.

Mas Oyama Memorial Tournament....

Hello!

I am sorry for the missing in action. We are preparing for the September 16th Mas Oyama Memorial Tournament and we are just sooooo crammed with everything from tournament draws to visa applications to wiping the floor and reserving futons .... I feel like I am drowning...!
Not to mention Kancho Suzuki 's schedule is worse.... It is killer schedule and plus training....ha.....

Will keep you all posted in the coming days.....

Thanks for all the support.....~~~<

Time is....

"If you can count the amount of time you spent on each project on your fingers, you haven't spent enough time on it. You have to spend time on each of your project until you feel you can't count any longer.
You will hear many criticism,  negativism and hear "no" repeatedly.
It will get worse before it gets better. That is why I say don't ever give up. Focus on your emotional strength and learn to, if you dont have it, to cultivate emotional maturity. "


Advice given to moi, from The Boss at G. S.


Looking on my college days I wish I had enrolled in some class that could have backed me up in th situation I have been immersed in today!!!!! Fortunately, my employer, aka, The Boss, advised me this over the summer when I tried to take a "holiday". Lol.

 It has been like going to law, business and charm school rolled into one for me! The education I have been receiving after my formal education finished, I owe so much to those who love and respect Kyokushin Karate through and through. Just a quick thank you.... 

A Beautiful Time....

Half of the year is already gone! Wow, it just seems like yesterday that we were doing Kagami Biraki (New Year Dojo opening held on January 11th).

The year has been quite interesting with great challenges and great rewards. It is learning about new methods and tactics and each day is a fun!

I am sorry i am not sharing picture's here... i am still working on my website but it is hard to do it along with billion other plans! 

it is still an uphill road but I am happy where I am right now. 

I went to visit my parent's grave and it reminded of all the experience of the last 18 years wash over me. .. it was kind of surreal and I felt so much gratitude. Which is strange, I know as I had some hard knocks!! 

Anyway just writing a quicky to let you know the small comments and email I get really motivate me and thank you for being all so sweet.
