I'm sorry for the delay.
Considering that I am only doing entry 2 now. I was busy last night watching "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind". Good moive. GO watch it.
Anyway, I spent somemore time considering options about the exercise.I realised that since I have already gone through what keeps the elderly and youths apart, I should go on to what might attract them together.
1) Use intellectual games like chess or dumb ( Ooh the irony...) to pit youths against the elderly, thereby causing them to spend time together. Hence, a compeitition open for both young and old.
2) Physical activites can also be considered. Swimming is one thing, considering that the strain of old bones will be lessened,but even games like soccer can be introduced, played at the pace of the elderly. *Do not laugh at me for bringing up this point. Rugby is also definately not included.
3) Even spring cleaning works too. Get youths to invite grandparents to old folks' homes, and do mass spring cleaning. Only problem I foresee is the elderly in the old folks home being jealous .

As usual, this is the informal section. You may read this at your own discretion.
Oh man, I am a wreck. I want to go to sleep but I can't cause I'm washing my
Gi, and besides, I have to do this entry. So what's new? My knuckles have torn skin, I was bleeding into my boxing gloves without realising it, I have been thrown so many times I can't think, and the worse part is that I will wake up cursing tomorrow. I will wake up, forget that my back is in pain, forget that my body is in pain, and will do something stupid enough to make me cry. I'll leave that to entry 04 as to what I did, considering that I am doing 02 and 03 tonight.
So if you have not yet guessed, I know Kung-fu. No, not the cool flashy ones that get all the girls, but the kind that sucks until you are in a life-or-death struggle, and after accidentally knocking out the other guy, you sit there wondering what just happened.That kind.
No, this is not a personal declaration to challenge all martial arts users in the school. Because like I typed,
the kind that sucks until you are in a life-or-death struggle.I don't get life-or-death struggles everyday, and I would like to keep it that way. I choose life.
So why am I even going into this subject? This is a blog. You type random stuff in it, and hope that it makes sense to people. And considering most conversations I hold in one day is with myself, (no, not like some mental guy talking and laughing to himself, but rather, quiet, intent discussions of everything relevant at that moment.) I usually take alot of unresolved discussions to me when I sleep. So I'm going to sign off here, so that I will have enough material for 03.
