@Eskrimadora Grrrrrrrr...you're so good, Mariah. Seriously, I so want to challenge you........to a balut eating contest! Yaaaiiiiikkss!!! I know so far you've eaten just two baluts in your life. I just love your attitude; just so love it. I wish you'll continue to be a positive force and model to people your age and younger. The world is a better place with people like you who can channel their energies to something constructive rather than destructive. :)

Sometimes someone comes along and just completely makes my day complete...all my training, all my sweat, blood, and tears, and all the years of pouring my soul into my love for martial arts sooo worth it. Thank you so very much 8javed for your support and encouragement!

@Eskrimadora My gosh! Mariiiaaaaaahh! You should be a hall of famer already and give others a chance to win. You're just a league of your own, girl, and no one comes close to your level of martial arts skills and talent for as long as you're still in your prime. Have mercy. :)

You are freakin AWESOME!!! This is my first time seeing you in action... I was skimming on people eating "balut" and saw you... WOW!!! much respect for eating the balut... I can't eat that thing even though Im Filipino, but I have been Americanized... haha!!! Especially much respect on your SKILLS!!!

[Eskrimadora]

This was a Open Form I put togeather for the Youth Black Belt Division that won me Grand champion!! Also I took 1st place in the Traditional weapons form that day. I train in Arnis Sikaran with Grand Master Bong Jornales, which is a Filipino martial art and we also fight full contact stick fighting single and double stick. I had a great time and I plan to return next year.
