Well, the foot is not broken and is actually very functional. The power of intention is a very powerful thing....
The shiai is two weeks away. Next Wednesday we have a shodan pre-test for an hour and a half with Sensei Morallo. Then I will most likely participate in the kyu shiai that same afternoon. Practice, practice and more practice. I feel very good about this.
For every belt test we have had to write a paper about what we have learned at each stage of testing. For the shodan test we have to delve a bit deeper. I've begun thinking about what I will write and what books I will refer to that have deepened my practice. I will have to start it soon so that time doesn't get away with me.
Class was very low key today. I taught most of it and just had everyone do the katas and bunkai that they have been working on for shiai. It sounds like Thursday will be a bit more energetic...

Interesting. We don't have any essays until the Shodan test - but then we have three required essays for that one! As a sign of my paranoia, I've already written a first draft of two of the three, and I'm not even taking my ni-kyu test for another few weeks at least.
I hope you'll post your essay here when you write it. I'd love to read it.
I'm not sure what's up with foot injuries. Maybe a e-ped-emic? :D Err... yeah. Well, forget that. My little toe took one for the team a few days ago, but is healing well. Glad to hear you didn't break your foot!
