Nearly home

Finally on our way home from a 3 week trip that after you fight really does drag on. At the moment i am sitting in Taipei airport in a lovely corner surrounded with bamboo. But i am so so tired.
We left Amsterdam at about 3pm in the afternoon before having a 10 hour plane trip to Bangkok then a 3 hour trip to Taipei. For some reason though we are having a massive 10 hour stop over before our 9 hour trip home. All up it will take us around 40 hours to fly from Amsterdam to Canberra. Just a joke i so just want to go home but it is taking the longest time ever. And to make it worse there are no TV's on the plane. So i have just been reading and studying my Technology textbook because i have a test a few days after i get home.

I still have a pretty busy few weeks ahead, aprt from catching up with my wife Sam i have to study for a Maths test and a technology test so im not really looking foward to studying for that, that's for sure.

I will be competing this weekend in a Brazilian Jujitsu competition and i am looking forward to spending the weekend with Samantha. We will be driving up to sydney and staying overnight in a hotel paid by my sponsor Pat (grapplingstore.com) he is also paying for Ivo Dos santos and i to attend a Seminar with Royler Gracie (famous guy) and then enter a tournmanet on sunday. Im excited to test my groundwork skills in a BJJ style comp once again and hopefully i have some good people to fight as there aren't many people in Canberra who i can have a good regular fight with.

After that sam and I will probably go to Hillsong chuch in Castle Hill. Its a huge church that plays awesome music and usually at least 5000 people turn up every service on the weekend. So thats going to be pretty amazing.

So thats about it from my end, i hope everyone is going well and i'll be home pretty soon. I just really hope that i get over the jet lag pretty quickly.

Have an awesome day
Matt
