Whoa. I just received a Facebook reply containing an emoticon that I completely cannot decipher! I MUST be getting old. ;)

Also, if you were interested and missed the info: my Wushu Demo is on Nov 21st.

This week has been great for senior sessions. We had our last one of the week yesterday, and I think I actually made squee noises while looking through the proofs. We've gotten some really nice images this week, and it'll be really fun when it comes time to sort through these past few months of work and freshen up our portfolio.

I think the only downer is that, aside from our male senior rep, we've literally only been booking girls for 2010, which is, honestly, pretty weird! So, yeah, we don't have a lot of updated images with guys to add to the senior album. But still, I'm really pleased with the work we've been doing lately.

We have some rad stuff coming up, too. I got us on board for a holiday vendor event a few weeks from now, and it looks really promising. I'm also meeting with KatieMay tomorrow, to hatch delicious plans for partnering her event planning business with our business, and I know we'll love working with her, so that's exciting stuff, too!

In other news, I made myself go running yesterday, and I'm proud of myself for that because I've been lazy about exercise these past few weeks. I only had 20 minutes to squeeze it in, but that's still 2 miles, so it's better than nothing. I was having more difficulty breathing, so that officially SUCKED. But it's better than when I cramped up after 10 minutes, like I did last week. Still, ugh. I should get consistent again, so that I won't feel like death is upon me every time.

Also, it's only 1.5 hours after finishing my lunch, and I'm already hungry again. Especially for muffins. Shut up, stupid tummy! I have nothing for you!

I have no idea what else is happening this weekend, beyond my usual wushuing, and the fact that my parents are in town. I might go celebrate Pete's birthday tonight, and I might be able to help [livejournal.com profile] matrixleap and [livejournal.com profile] herince_emyn move tomorrow, but I guess it depends on what my folks have in mind. Hopefully, I'll have a better idea once I hear from them later today. :)

Maybe it was just a typo? XD

Huh. You're right, that IS perplexing.

It means "crazy happy Neko"!! :D I'm proud I found it, since it was almost by accident, heh.

Haaahaha! I know most of those Japanese emoticons from my crazed-anime-watching days, but Crazy Happy Neko was NOT one of them. XD

Hey sweetheart. I saw this clip, and it brought tears to my eyes, and thought I would share it with you.

Be Strong, Be Gentle, Be Beautiful


A description: "Keiko Fukuda is a judo teacher in San Francisco who recently attained a high rank in the art, the 9th dan. In the documentary she explains how for 30 years she was kept at an artificially low ranking because she was female. Today she has rank and respect and is still teaching at age 96. Flying Carp Productions is making a documentary film about her life. They still need donations to help finish the film!"

OMG, I'd seen a few clips from this series of documentaries, but I hadn't seen this particular one yet. It's a beautiful story... thank you for sharing it :)

(okay, I'm apparently a frigtard and thought this was part of another similar-looking series of martial arts documentaries I'd seen on one of my wushu forums, but it isn't. ^^; Still, I'm glad you sent it over!)
