Update / Mexico
I hope your are all behaving and practicing as the schedule. The tournament finished yesterday. It was so small that there was no coverage in Japan about it, at least that's what my father told me.
This is the my 6th junior tournament victory this year out of 6, so I'm doing well, ne? It was a shame that I ended up meeting Sanada in the semi-finals, it would have been a better final if I was playing against him instead.
Things are going very well for me, and for my sponsor, of course, even if they aren't making any money out of me yet. But after this tournament there's the Dunlop Orange Bowl in Florida, they asked me if I wanted to go. It's a Grade A tournament. I have 820 points now, another 150 when I win this next tournament. That puts me in 2nd place, another 2 tournaments and I can get to 1st place. There are a few G1 tournaments before the Australian Open,... I really want to be ready for it. They say that with my parents authorization I might be able to compete as a pro. I know they are pressuring because until I am a pro, they are making no money off me, but there's a dilemma... to play in all these tournaments, I need to quit school.
It's a lot to think about ^_^; and if that wasn't enough, things with Gen have been a little... mind blowing, I having a difficult time thinking about much else.
[ooc: strike = deleted. Things happened in Singapore~ Ari, did Sanada end up going to Mexico as well?]
