19 year old guys are easy--its the 19 year old girls you have to watchout for
Congrats--keep it up!

This is true- I probably out-weighed him by twenty pounds! Besides I think he thought he was going to hurt me and held back-at least until I nailed him - but then it was too late- I already scored two points and only needed one more to win. It was in a class I don't usually go to, so the poor guy had no idea how I fight (To Win)
I am going to enter my first tornement this month- kind of scared and kind of excited.

Congrats Shea, Now that you moved up in rank you get privileges, the privilege to spar with higher ranks. I found every time I moved up a notch my instructor put me against more experienced fighters. Good way to learn but sore lessons.

I really don't see the big deal. I have a black belt. In fact, I put on a few pounds during the holidays and I'm thinking about shopping for another one.
Congratulations!
Congratulations!
Hey...that's wonderful news! I remember well when you were extremely troubled by how overwhelming it all seemed to be in the beginning. I'm so glad you went back and found your success! Congratulations.

Congrats, Sheadakota! You're making all (slightly) older women look great. You kick butt--literally and figuratively!

Yea! Congrats. Glad to see you kept with the lessons. Now, people better watch out for you. You're dangerous. (Well, more dangerous than the average woman.)
Yeah, well, I would still scream like a little girl and pee myself if a bad guy showed up!

That's exactly how I thought people got yellow belts.
Seriously, congratulations, you're doing great. It must be a nice workout, too.
