REDOX reactions.
Chemistry Saturday evening.
Nothing's slow anymore after embarking on the BSEE program 😅
General educ acad work.
Back at home and got what I needed.
Work mode.
One puzzle which I and the master has not solved though is on the Japanese system.
The Japanese system has no kata or forms but what is surprising is that the movements and execution fits the postures on an ancient chinese martial arts form or kata that I know of. The ancient chinese system is believed to be 400 years to 1000 years depending on the historical accounts.
So basically, the martial art system from my master is a combination of Japanese and Filipino in origin.
The empty hands then is predominantly Japanese while the weapons is predominalty Filipino.
Chicken Inasal.
Hence, although the master was a former LEO, he never embraced Pekiti Tersia.
His teacher on the second system was a former bouncer in clubs and then became a bodyguard for prominent VIPs. Now he just lives a simple life.
The system that my master learned from a Japanese master has no name but later the Filipino community probably expounded it and added Judo in the name and kept the original as the elite system and only taught to a few while the watered down version was the one generally taught to the public.
The second one originated from different indigenous Filipino Martial Arts including Cinko Teros and Balintawak and was fused together and the name is a giveaway for a quick close quarter battle.
The latter was the system taught to me last Sunday but the former was the system taught to me since March.
Some bruises on arm pressure points started showing up this morning after the training last Sunday.
Turns out my master's martial arts teacher was the tall guy that looks like a marine fresh from the basic school.
The lessons were counters on the 4 gates and it reestablished my understanding of the fundamentals. While the master taught me last time, now it is his teacher that deepens my understanding of the principles and actuals of these counter strikes.
From these fundamental moves I can deviate and transition to more lethal moves like breaking bones or hitting vital spots.
Thinking if I'll hire a housekeeper so I can relegate trivial stuffs and focus on work and schooling only.
Someone who will clean my cottage, cook, take care of garbage and laundry.
Didn't managed to stay awake for the acad work. Will do it later evening after work.
For now I am off the city for shopping.
One more round of review for chemistry (stoichiometry I &II) and on maths (limits & differentiation) before I do the necessary acad work.
Not enough time so I will be up at dawn I'm until morning to do the acads.
Woke up early to do maths and chem.
Also got my muscles aching from the gym workout last Saturday.
Tired from training yesterday on martial arts. Joints are painful from the locks, wrist, elbow, shoulder.
Stoichiometry II.
