I woke up from a bad dream about
my daughter.

I'm worried, and it transpire into my
dream time. I couldn't get back
to sleep, not so much from
worries, but from not being tired
anymore. My sleep pattern is
unbalanced.

At the theater practice yesterday I
chatted with a girl, I found some
dumb things to talk about. She
liked the interaction, came back
later at the end of the practice
to talk a bit more. I felt we
were both a bit dorky about our
way of approaching each other. I
liked it though. Everyone is in
a relation in the troupe, except
for 3 of us singles. It makes
hard to be subtle when 2 singles
talks together.

I'm learning Gankaku with my
sensei in karate. It's a powerful
kata that really embody what
karate is about. It has all the
stances in Shotokan, and a very
good balance of slow and fast moves.

Cross-training between karate and
boxing creates a really nice
balance. The cardio and strength
developed in boxing helps me
focus on the technicality of
Karate. While the precision and
complexity of Karate really helps
understanding the foundation of
boxing. Boxing is a simple
martial art. One stance, no knee
or elbow hit, no kicks, no jumps,
no kata... 3 types of punches, on
each sides.
