Ehhhhhhhh.....Owwwwww.......

Stupid Self Defense Club. I show up and we do something that leaves bruises on my hand......Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
It was repetition with smacking (partner's) hand then attacking/blocking with back of other hand, then......don't make me explain it, it was hard enough trying to do it fast enough with the proper pivoting and hitting the right hand. And my second partner was the really tall guy who is also in Judo. Now I'm not that short (like 5' 6.25") but this guy is a whole head taller. And way stronger! Intimidating much? Thank gods he didn't use all of his strength. Only around a quarter.
My third partner: also a guy. But I got mad at him halfway through for saying I was the one who messed up.
We did two of these little exercises but I only practiced the second on with another girl there. Normally Freshman is my partner, but it was fun watching her and another girl (who I also don't have names for on here yet) getting frustrated since I'm normally the one who keeps them focused. I know, right? Never would have though.
Anyway, that's about it.
Oh, my party!
Only Squirrel, Spain, and Ishy showed up. Akira got really busy at the last moment, I still haven't asked Ash why she wasn't there, and Freshman's sister was in town. It was fun though! We played Hide and Seek, some board games, had two tea parties, and Squirrel chased bubbles that I blew from the second story down to her. We had balloons and spent some time smacking each other with them and Squirrel also made a balloon dog that took about 15 minutes (I filmed most of it).
After Ishy left, Squirrel wanted to watch some VHS's that I had but the player decided to die. After about 2 hours of all of us trying to work it (Spain was actually drawing a picture of Mafia Romano while Squirrel and I were the one fiddling with it), we gave up and went downstairs to steal the cords from the player in my mom's room (at around 11 at night). But even then, for some reason, the cord had a problem and we only got sound sometimes. Since when we had been looking for cords around the room earlier, we thought that maybe we could use an old speaker. While most were too new with the smaller plug-in thing, we found one that played sound. Problem: It was so quiet we all had to crowd around the speaker as one person (mostly me) had the speaker on their stomach, trying not to laugh.
Later Spain fell asleep, so Squirrel and I were able to watch the other VHS's with the speaker between us. Movies we watched? Pokemon the First Movie, Pokemon: Mewtwo's Return, Pokemon 2000, Digimon The Movie. Yes, we were all born in the 90's. And we could all tell the movies were made in the 90's with the type of music and jokes used.
Squirrel went to bed at around 5am, so I spent the time of YouTube watching my Watch Later Playlist that had been piling up, since I watch videos the first time through.
Everyone woke up at 7-8 when I was trying to carry some of our dirty dishes downstairs. We then watched Spirited Away on the DVD player (we wanted the player to a rest after all the work), Gravitation, then Spain and Squirrel tricked me and clean up everything while I was busy somewhere else. I swear, the house the cleaner than when they came!
So that was my weekend! I had gotten 2 books, a handful of balloons, and some carrot cake like from my last party! I'm going to eat the cake for dessert today!!! I can't wait!! Lat year it was so delicious, it was gone within the hour (we had accidentally gotten the wrong size of Schwartzwalder Kirschtorte [Black Forest Cherry Cake]).
I'll take pictures of the cake and post them later. I'll wait a few minutes then dig in!!!!!
Ya know the drill, ciao!
