Hey there. Just checking in.

Back on December 9, 2006, I found myself staring down a massive fine from the authorities, and honestly, looking back at it now, it’s just one of those moments that sticks with you—not because it was life-changing, but because of how much of a headache it turned out to be. $667And that was all because I decided to get behind the wheel before I actually had my driver's license in hand.

Back on December 12, 2006, I finally sat down to file a formal appeal because I was adamant that I should have been legally allowed to get behind the wheel. See, I had actually passed my driving test way back on March 18 of that year, so technically the skill was there—I just hadn't gone through the tedious process of picking up the physical license from the DMV yet.

So, I just got hit with this notice on November 12th, telling me I’m officially in the wrong and that I have exactly fifteen days to cough up the cash. If I don't settle it by then, they're going to come after me to collect it forcibly, which is always a fun thought to sit with over a coffee. The paperwork also mentions that I have the option to file an appeal with the Supreme Court of the United States if I want to fight it.

So, am I looking at a statute of limitations that kicks in just a month from now? Honestly, I’m trying to figure out if it’s even worth my breath to file an appeal with the Supreme Court of the United States, or if I'm just throwing good money after bad.

Go find somewhere with a better crowd, maybe head to a karate studio where that little cutie hangs out—seems like there are plenty of girls around there if you ask me. But hey, if your goal is to hook up with someone who might actually catch you off guard, you’re probably better off hitting up a bar in downtown Chicago.

I’m leaning toward kickboxing. My main goal is to tone up because I feel a bit soft right now. I’m not overweight (5'7" and 125 lbs), but maybe I want to drop about 6 or 7 pounds. I don’t want bulky muscles; I’m looking for that lean, toned look—not "bulky," especially in my calves. Good cardio is also a priority.
I’m 20. I have an athletic build naturally, though I haven't trained at all in five years, so basically a beginner. I'm staying at the State University dorms near downtown, so ideally, the gym shouldn't be a massive trek.
Will kickboxing actually hit those goals? Or should I look into something else if you think that's a better fit? Also, college stress is constant, so I need something that works as a bit of a therapeutic release. 😁
Hopefully, I'm not being too picky.
Thanks for bearing with me.

Honestly, hitting someone in the face is the ultimate stress reliever for finals week.

Just one more thing.
I see all these different types and sizes of bags online, so I was wondering which size would actually be best for what he used to do (like early UFC or K1 style stuff)?

Honestly, the thicker the bag, the better.

placidbison20 said:Look, I think that’s a fair price for three sessions a week, lasting an hour or two each.

The issue arises when someone charges $100 for just two training sessions that only run for an hour and fifteen minutes.

Honestly, that’s way too much money for three times a week, and even for five times a week—it’s total garbage when everyone else is charging around $150-$67( $67 which is way too high in my book) and then some guy comes along and drops a space-age price tag like $100
. But you know how it goes, it’s that Krav Maga thing; those Israelis swear by it.

I was actually thinking about a price tag around 300 grand$83. Or was that just another one of those jokes too😕🤷

It's outrageously expensive, honestly—probably the highest price I've ever heard for a martial arts class 👎👎👎

Unfortunately, you won't find any of these disciplines offered here in Miami.😢

http://www.systema-swiss.ch/systemasplit_cr.php This is what they mean by Systema, if you can't tell for yourself.

You should really dig into some Thai Chi, Wing Chun, or even that Russian system.
