Free Breakfast

Photo is mine. No OJ here, must have drank it before I started eating.

Well, it wasn't exactly free and it was more brunch than breakfast really. Last Sunday, I dropped by a friend's place to spar and train. We did twelve rounds of sparring and another six rounds of technical sparring. Sparring is more free flow, like you're really in fight/match. Obviously, you don't go 100%. 50% would be appropriate. I have heard and seen sparring session get out of hand and people getting hurt. You train hard to fight easy but not at the expense of your sparring partner. Technical sparring is similar to sparring but more focused on practicing and mastering a technique. Punches are more controlled and you can say that movements are choreographed. Anyway, after the workout, my friend decided to make breakfast for us. Didn't know she took up culinary arts in college. I didn't even know she went to college! But, yeah, all lame jokes aside, she did a mean omelet with mushrooms, ground beef, carrots, potatoes, and bell peppers. She knows how much I love bell pepper so she didn't scrimp on the bell pepper. She also made toast and had some butter and jam. Coffee or hot chocolate would suffice but I must have given her a good workout that she had OJ with a slight tinge of vodka - was that vodka? Either way, it was a good way to wash down the food that she prepared. After an hour or two, I bade my goodbye and promised to be back next Sunday, not necessarily too train but to have another go at breakfast.

Sparring would be like practicing the moves and techniques one would use in an actual match/fight.
