Today was Convocation, a huge carnival for all the new students. Oh it was fun, with guys on stilts, acrobats, a bearded lady, I got my fortune told (my future looks grate, but my friend Rachel got reamed by the fortune teller, she was told that she wouldn't find her sole mate until she was dead) a funk band and some amazing dancing. I joined a club to its The Ginarte Capoeira. Capoeira is an African-Brazilian martial art founded by Africans in Brazil during the early years of slavery. They concealed it as a dance, to protect its true purpose, self defense. It is really Break Dance Fighting! They have free classes for students twice a week. I've always wanted to learn a martial art and this one is perfect for me, but I don't think I'll be getting into any cage matches soon.
