8/1

Today was my grandmas bday! After I woke up I was talking to her and chilling a little. Later on I had some food and starting working on her cake. I made her a mango white chocolate cake and it turned out pretty good! I went to sunday sparring class for the first time around 2 and it was very different from normal class. We did a bunch of unique exercises and I was among professional sparrers so when it came time for actual matches they were very intense and cool to watch. I learned a lot and am looking forward to next week. When i came home I finished up frosting the cake and we had some people over to have a small celebration. Everyone said my cake was very good. Pretty normal day, my rest day so no requirements today but still pretty tiring because of sparring. Tomorrow is the start of full band camp and it’s from 8-5 which is 9 hours. I have no idea how i’m going to manage it with the cycle🫩. I’ll figure it out, that’s all for today, Goodnight!
