More nice ones.

Alright, I've been posting on this board for, like, 2 years now? It's about time I share my ugly mug. This photo is from early last year when my gf and I first started dating. Guess which one's me.

So... was my mug TOO ugly? This thread suddenly died.

LOL.

This thread goes through phases One minute it's a flurry of posts, the next it's dead for a month...

Well the story behind this one is:
BBQ party + I was on meds drank too much and too many different things at once + awesome music + plus awesome friends =

And yes I don't even remember doing that and guess whre I got my avatar from.

@ it is him, are you the one in red?

That's some good use of the avatar.

And no, I'm definitely not the one in red

Oh yes. What's amazing about the incident is that this couple were going at it for at least a half-hour. We took an entire series of photos with them. But this one photo is pretty much my favorite thing ever.

I suppose I could post one. Aany others I may have posted ate most likely buried in this thread somewhere.

That girl you're sitting next to looks really familiar.

(It Is Him & I are from the same small city.)

That happens to me a lot. I was teaching karate my last two years in Gainesville and I end up thinking people look familiar. Small world, oh well.

That's pretty impressive you can recognize that girl when someone's sucking down her face.

Btw, where did you teach? Gainesville Dojo? Unified Training Center? Somewhere else?

Actually, I meant the girl you're sitting next to.

I taught on Campus as an instructor for Butokukan Karate. Originally they were under Sports and Rec but there was a shift in their policy several years ago where they decided that the basis for that organization was competition events. We were moved to general clubs and organizations after that.

Unfortunately, our organization on campus is smaller nowadays due to lack of space for organizations and the sheer volume of martial arts groups the University continues to permit. There are regular instructors there now, but I believe anyone above shodan is a visiting instructor right now.

Long story short, our style is the karate that was taught during Korea's occupation and we train in a very practical aikido as supplement to the striking. The karate we practice is less linear than most and the aikido we practice is very strike oriented.

She took a few kickboxing classes, but they may not have been on campus.

I watched an aikido class once while I lived in Broward Hall (they may have instructed several classes in the basement), and my dad encouraged me to sign up (he practiced pre-WTF Karate in New York). Some years later I took a Tae Kwon Do class, which was surprisingly good, and a Tai Chi class, after which I got suckered into private lessons. Last I heard, they've both been cut because of budget issues. I've been away from the martial arts for a few years now, though I was considering Gojuryu before I left Gainesville.

They always had a respectable organization in G'ville.
