Martial Arts




Before this martial art thingy even begins, I planned to learn dancing with Cass. But ended up learning kickboxing! It’s really breath taking, because I kinda like it? Lol. Used to learn taekwondo before, but stopped due to some reasons. Learning something about kicking and punching again is really fun! The main reason I agreed to learn kickboxing is because I felt that I really need to work out, yea…


1st day! (5th May, Tuesday)
Eejon, Cass and I started with the beginner class, but Cass is no longer a ‘New’ student, because she learned kickboxing before, but stopped after one year due to SPM. The first class for us was a bit awkward because of the way we kicked and punched, and also the weird warm up. But, we had fun though. Plus, being able to see Cass and Eejon’s expression when they kick is priceless!

2nd day! (6th May, Wednesday)
So, the next day we went for training too, amusing and interesting as usual. But one unfortunate yet unforgettable incident happened to Eejon…. Here comes the really funny part! Jon and I were talking and fooling around while waiting for the instructor, so I acted as if I wanted to punch him. In returned, he was also trying to flow with me. So he lifted up his leg and wanted to kick me back. Suddenly, out of the blue, we heard a noise…..Shreeeeeeed !!!! He’d torn his pant into two at the bottom, Haha!! I can’t stop laughing at him because it’s hilarious! But we did have a good laugh at it. Sorry Jon, for telling the world. Lol…

3rd day! (7th May, Thursday)
This time, Nicole and Yue shern had decided to come for the trial too. We had our LOL moments as well. Seeing Yue Shern doing all the fighting stunts is also priceless, because she never actually took part in any martial arts before, so it’s really pleasing to watch her punch. Lol. Another comical incident happened to Eejon again. Each kickboxing lesson we would have to find a partner, so Jon and I ended up being partners. While we were on the process of practicing some leg stunt calls, all of a sudden, Shreeeeeeedd !!! Again…. his pant was torn at the right knee level. Haha! We were laughing until both of us squad down on the floor. Without any doubt, Eejon already reached the maximum allowance of humiliation! It’s so unconventional right? Pants torn 2 days in a row, I would call that…. A Legend!!

I really enjoyed the whole kickboxing thing, not only can learn self-defense but had a great time with friends. Great friends surrounding you will make things interesting in whatever you learn, especially kickboxing, including my studies.
