So I don't know if you know this, but I take Tae Kwon Do (A form of martial arts). And yesterdsay during class we were sparring (free-form fighting). And not to brag, but I'm a pretty good fighter. I'm no Bruce Lee, but you won't be able to take me down easily in a fight, but something I've learned growing up is that no matter how good you are, there is always someone better then you, somewhere out there. So lets recap on what I've said so far, I talked about how I'm a pretty good martial artist, and I've also talked about how there will always be someone better then you. If you put the two together, then you probably know where I'm going with this. Yes, as much as I hate to admit it, yesterday I was pwned by a fellow sparrer. Honestly, I was surprised, as the person who fought me was a lower belt then I was! Its rare, but not impossible, to find a novice who fights like Chuck Norris, and during my entire Tae Kwon Do career, I've only met two people who are "gifted" in martial arts. It was a heated battle, and I didn't come out victoriously.In fact, all I came out with pain, and bruises. To give you a better picture, think about the beginning of Rocky IV, where Apollo Creed boxes Ivan Drago, and Drago beats Apollo up so badly, that he actually died in the ring, thus creating the plot for the rest of the movie. So now I'm thinking bout changing my name top Apollo Xie. Ok, I'll admit, my sparring match wasn't as brutal as Rocky IV, and Rocky unfortunately won't be traveling to Russia to avenge my death, but you guys get the picture. So the morale of this story is, don't be cocky, cause theres always someone better then you, you don't have to be Asian to be a great martial artist, and the Rocky series is one of the best movie series of all time. (Seriously, go watch it)
