It's slightly disconcerting and burdensome and enlightening when you suddenly realise you love someone.

You know that feeling. When you're walking down the hallway thinking of someone you've known for a while and then it hits you... that you've loved them for some time now, really, and the temporary denial ("no... not another one...") that comes with the fear of loving someone new (another person who can affect me), then the acceptance.

In other news I got my first medal in a senior category yesterday at BASKA. It was quite funny 'cause I learnt Bassai Dai on Tuesday night, practiced it until I could do it without prompts on Wednesday night, perfected it with Ah.med on Saturday, and performed it on Sunday to win my opening round.

I lost my first fight, but was quite pleased with it. The girl had obviously been fighting a lot longer than I have and I managed to score quite a few points on her until she came back with some san-bons. I got hit quite hard in the head several times though, but don't tell my mother that!

The highlight of the day though was Ah.med judging the fights... Ah.med and the team were over the moon. We sat and watched him and counted how many people cried (11!). We were all very proud of him. :)
