First. DO IT!!!!
Buy ALL THE...Hey Hey Hey Brit!!!<br /><br />First. DO IT!!!!<br /><br />Buy ALL THE SCARVES. You’re thinking like Trina now. Doesn’t matter if you need them ALL, but they are a DEAL!!!. Buy them. <br /><br />Sounds like you’re having a good time. Very happy. Making some great friends too; I suspect a few will become lifelong friends, or at least people you will stay in contact with for a couple of decades. <br /><br />These kinds of experiences lend themselves to that. I still hang now and then with my New Zealand crew, and that was 2005.<br /><br />Also sounding pretty deep. Beyond your young years. But that’s a good thing. That’s what travel is supposed to do, and yes, you ARE QUALIFIED to make the statements!<br /><br />Your comment on the Irish having some definite opinions was interesting. There are reasons for it; it’s just not obvious unless you do some digging. When I was in a Sociology class (I think that’s what it was) at BCIT I took a history course (and I HATES… I say HATES… history) we did a piece on the difference between Canadian and American (USA) opinions and culture. Turns out a lot of Canadian culture and differences from the USA come from our RCMP being a peacekeeping force all ACROSS Canada, and our dealings with Quebec and the French. Never thought I would get anything useful out of that course but I did. <br /><br />Ahhh Karate and a different non SHD school…. Yes, I did 4.5 years of SHD and then 1.5 of Ishinryu (sp) Karate (got to their brown belt) and I found much the same thing. Had to re-learn to punch (yes I did) and there were differences, some significant in how Ishyinru uses the body along with the fist. <br /><br />But the key thing I learned was that SHD was WAY FUN compared to the Karate school. Sure it had something to do with the variety in SHD, but a lot was the just the plain energy and instructors.<br /><br />Also learned that SHD WAS WAY KICK ASS Martial Art. I still look fondly back on the day sparring as a Karate yellow belt against one of the school top black belts. The look of utter surprise as I smoked him with an Axe kick. <br /><br />You can start offering your own mini SHD (don’t call it that though) Call its Brits IRISH Defense, and throw in some Irish dance in it too.<br /><br />So, Yes, DO IT. BUY The scarves.<br /><br />Trina says HI!<br />Uncle Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390724617373123131noreply@blogger.com
