Went to Fight Night XI & after party with Jen.
It was freaking awesome!
There were 9 matches, 4 demos including the Capoeira group who practice at the Dojo (Power Kick Cardio Kickboxing and Martial Arts Academy) and a raffle with proceeds going to The American Diabetes Association (they raised $2200 or $2300 I can't remember which).
The youngest fighter was 16 I believe and the oldest was in his 40s (and a drinker/heavy smoker). The 16 yr old won her match and the 40 yr old won his fight.
It was just so awesome...and packed!
The raffle. They were giving out diverse prizes. DVDs (Fox produced movies I believe), shirts, items from Yahoo!, BMW, a few books, shopping gift cards, 1 month free membership to the Dojo...and the one I wanted to win - a Dolce Vita Spa Package valued at $450! If I won it I was giving it to my mom for Mother's Day. I bought my 1 ticket and waited for my numbers to be called. I held my breath everytime the numbers got close and the prize wasn't what I wanted. 15 to 20 prizes later my number was called and I WON THE SPA PACKAGE! omg! I wanted to tell everyone (and I kind of did on Twitter).
The night went on, all the rounds were finished, 2 additional trophies were given out - biggest heart (to the fighter who gave their all even when they thought they didn't have anything else to give) and best fighter of the night (whether they won or lost their match). They aso gave one of the sensais a trip to Hawaii. That was pretty cool.
after all the hub bub of that, Jen and I made our way out and headed to the after party/ That was mellow but fun. I laughed so much I started to cry and I eye flirted with this guy from the halloween party. I didnt have enough alcohol in me to go up and talk to him (eww beer!) and I doubt I would have made much sense had I done so.
we left at midnight and here it is 2 hours later and I should be alseep!
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and moms to be. Hope your day is full love, hugs, kisses and relaxation!
