COMPETITION DAY.  Purdue Open fencing tournament, a mere 2 hour drive.  But, we have to leave at 5:15 AM to get there on time!  Oh well.  It's worth it, and my adrenaline is pumping already.

The foil event will probably be a D1 competition, maybe a C1 if they get a whole lotta talent and E1 if they fall short of 16 fencers.  So, my goal is to renew my national ranking of "E", with hopes and dreams of getting my "D".

I'M PUMPED UP.

You also must all come to The Parry-Riposte E2 NYC Fencing Competition of Nuclear Proportions OR DIE!
