Re-training?

It's 5 in the morning. Yes, I am still pretty awake at the moment. What can I do? Hmm, I have flipped through my photo albums and spotted those old-fashioned-looking class photo during my secondary school time. Also found a few taken during a demonstration during school's sport day. Looked pretty cool donning the uniform. \^o^/ That reminded me of a former junior of mine in our school's taekwondo club. We bumped into each other one day and he brought up the idea of getting back to training and perhaps take part in competition. I have been thinking about that since starting college but I am very, very reluctant to join that stupid club again.

Just a brief introduction to whoever reading this and feel clueless of what I am saying. The school's club was (not sure if it still is) under an external training academy (I called it this way to differentiate from club) which recruit students from schools nearby. Majority of the members were from Kepong Baru - with the most black belts, won the most medals and they happened to be the most cockiest bunch of arrogant idiots. They are the academy master's and instructors' favorite.

Back to the topic. That was why I said reluctant. Discussed with this junior for a while. I asked him to scout for training centers nearby and ask some of the former members if they are interested in getting back. If you get enough of people, I might consider about it. Well, what's the point of getting back when it's not enough of people, right? Another thing to consider - it has been 7 years since I've dropped from training. I'd guess my joints will be too rusty to even get a basic front kick, will they? o_O
