The Gators romped against South Carolina, and I experienced the fans of Williams-Brice Stadium go silent. 51-31 is a pretty bold statement if you ask me. Meaning: the previous two games were flukes; the Gators still OWN the Gamecocks. The stadium was really quiet and I think the fans are used to losing because it wasnt as hostile an environment as I thought it would be. Either that or South Carolina fans are really polite, which I really can appreciate. I was the lone blue and orange representative in a scarlet and black section. Gamecock fans are definitely better and more respectful than the hillbilly rednecks (Volunteer fans), Auburn fans, and Georgia fans. So props to them for that...

Went to the gym last night and tried to do front flips on the runway. Ended up landing on my toe wrong which hurt like a mofo...and it still hurts today. I think I sprained it; we'll see if I go today. Im progressing into combinations which is cool...I can land roundoff back handsprings with ease and have moved onto roundoff back tucks (flips) on the tumble trak. I think the next combo to learn after that is roundoff back handspring back tuck (or 3 moves). By the way, I think back "tuck" sounds stupid, Id rather use the term "flip". But I guess thats gym-talk for ya...Oh, I can land a front handspring 3 times out of 4 on the regular ground, so Im happy with that. None of this stuff is perfect, but its 'doable', meaning its not up to gym standards but at least Im landing them and not falling. I still want to learn how to do an aerial, which is the "holy grail" for me; the pinnacle of what I want to learn.

I miss Kung Fu though...its been really hard to train, and in fact, I havent been...one of these days Ill get back to Florida and can start training again...

Oh, the girl in black was back...a glorious day indeed...

Peace
