went kickboxing yesterday, it was extremely tiring, but a good workout...was a different teacher from the one on sunday. the sunday instructress was more about combinations and different moves, requires more coordination than stamina, yesterday's instructor was all about repetitions and endurance, so it got a bit monotonous at times, although it was definitely more worthwhile exercise-wise. the timing wasn't too nice though, the class runs from 6.30 to 7.30. by the time it was over and we went to have dinner (a long one as usual), it was 9 o clock, so that was most of the night gone.
don't like it now that it gets dark by 5.30 (coz of daylight saving, there are more bright hours earlier in the day)...always makes me feel like the day is over. can understand why people suffer from winter blues. not that it's anything like winter yet! yesterday it was so hot in san jose (one hour away from berkeley), that the record high temperature since 1913 was broken, can you imagine? but today's not so bad already...there's a breeze, and it's supposed to rain by friday. i sure hope it doesn't, my church is having a retreat at the santa cruz mountains, which i can only half go for since i have my american institutions exam on saturday, right smack in the middle of the retreat. just as well i found someone driving up on saturday, otherwise i wouldn't be able to attend it at all. wish me luck for the exam, hope i can keep all the facts straight in my mind and remember relevant examples!
