It might be all the stress. It might be because I’m a truly horrible, brutal person. It might just be my over enthusiasm for the course. But in reality, I just didn’t realize my own strength.
In my Hapkido class, we were doing this drill where everyone stands in a circle around one person who has their eyes closed. Once someone from the circle attacks this person, she can open her eyes and defend herself in the form of kicking the shit (similated) out of the attacker.
We had been learning to defend against a person who runs straight into you from the front and tries to push you backwards. So I barreled into the ‘victim’, who couldn't brace herself against something she couldn't see, and succeed in tackling her. Oops. Everyone was laughing (at me) and no one was hurt. But I just felt really bad.
This is the same girl who loans me hair ties when I forget mine, the same girl who is best friends with the only other girl in the course, the same girl who sports two ankle braces everyday, and the same girl who gave everyone post Valentine’s Day candy after class.
Guilt.
Must make baked goods.
