5.6 (February 26)

Last weeks Spring Cleaning was something that I've missed doing the past few years, and now that we've started to do it as a school again, I'm seeing all the benefits that come from it. The biggest benefit for me was team building. My group included Toudai Thelwall, Toudai Repay, and my father, we've all known each other on the mats for a while now, but doing this as a group helped us build a bond that we wouldn't have been able to during class time. I think part of the reason that I've struggled to fulfill my requirements the past few years is because I haven't been able to build the same level of bond as easily due to the pandemic. Now that we're back to doing things in public as a team again however, I believe that a whole lot of things are going to come a lot easier for me.
