I've been an anime freak my entire life, and the premise of any good anime is martial arts. While being highly exaggerated I find that the principles are the more appealing aspect to me. I've decided to take on martial arts in my life in hopes that I may find some semblence of control. And I have. I've been studying for the last nine months under a 2nd Dan here in Michigan. I've just become a second yellow belt and can't wait to go further. I told myself at the beginning my goal is: "Not to become a black belt, but to be in martial arts the rest of my life." My instructor always mentions if only he had a dime for someone who says, "Oh, I used to be in..." I don't want to be part of those statistics. Other than the noticable physical changes I've been told I'm a lot more collected and harder to agitate. I've been in college for two years and have couldn't find a path I wanted to follow, now I've found it :)
