Knee Pains

So we have some bad news. My knees have been hurting me again. Not really as bad as they have been before but the pain has been very irritating. Usually I notice the pain while sitting down for a long period of time. Rather I'm sitting down at home for about 10 minutes or I'm on the bus for a hour. The other day I was on the bus for a hour and my knees were killing me. But when I stood up they felt so much better. I guess this means that sitting down will hurt my knees which we been knew before but now we can be sure of it.

This has made it a bit harder to focus in classes. Being that there aren't any classes where I can stand and do work then I have no choice but to sit down. Lucky my knees haven't been hurting too much in school, but I think it does have some type of effect on me. I notice that I have been a bit more tired lately. Going to sleep a bit earlier and almost missing my bus every morning because I'm so exhausted. This whole year has worn me out and it didn't help that my knee has been hurting. I wonder if my knee started hurting from not wearing my knee brace though. It was lost in my house for about two weeks. I just found it sometimes over this past weekend and currently have it on now.

I really hope that my knees don't continue to hurt for too much longer because Harry told me that if I feel up to it then I can try to perform the Kata at my final senior meeting next Tuesday. That means that I can go for my blue belt in Shoshindo Karate. It's been hyping me and clouding my thoughts ever since he has told me. So I don't really practice the movements physically, I do it more mentally. I think that on Sunday and Monday I will practice it very lightly, then if I feel up to it on the day of then I will perform it. But being that the pains are coming back a bit, I may need to back off a bit more again.
