Ocean Beach, CA
Much has passed since my last entry. I took and passed all my Praxis tests (phew!). I was pretty worried there for a while, though I did pretty well on them.
I also took and passed my shodan (black belt) test here at the dojo. The test itself went by in a flash and the community support was what I will remember most. My parents came (they've never seen Aikido before) and the dojo was full of current and past students.
The number of days remaining for me here in San Diego is written up on the dry erase board in my room – 12. I'm starting to say good-bye to friends and have sold some things (my parents took a bunch of stuff home with them when they left). I'm trying to hit all my favorite haunts before I go. Check out my Ocean Beach blog.

Dude. How are you going to keep up your OB blog once you leave?
Well, the OB blog was just an aside, really. I thought it would be cool to celebrate all the things that makes where I've been living the last three years special. Plus, I can always look at the warm, sunny pictures when next winter sets in back east.
