The second part focuses on elbows, uppercuts, push kick and another break lock.
For elbows, the hand motion is supposed to 'comb one's hair' or cut through the face diagonally to hit the opposite side. However, with the body motion constantly twisting, even a straight up elbow is supposed to hit the opponent on the other side instead. This needs practice. Also, the hand is supposed to open palm face down under the armpit so as to create a only one point of contact instead of a rubbing of the skin.
Uppercuts, are just a short twisting of the body. The motion is somewhat similar to an elbow, in a rather short, upward direction instead.
Push kicks are interesting. By raising a leg, then extending it and shortening it immediately, while leaning forwards or backwards to give greater power or stability, this is probably one of the simplest and most innate action.
Today's lock is when someone hugs my waist from behind. My left hand will grab his right wrist. Then my right hand from outside loop below his right arm past the elbow and grab my left wrist. Stick out the butt and then twist the body sharply by pivoting on my left leg 180 degrees. This will turn into an armbar or can be used to immobilize the person.
Happy to learn how to execute an armbar at last! I was gaping in awe and the word came out!

Helped 2 NJC ladies find their way through NUS. They were really shocked that a stranger would extend help as if it were a normality. I'm here to help change that mindset.

相信不同的对象有不同结果，我应该每一次恋爱都好像没受伤过，无限次恋爱都要像初恋执著。
虽然别太快认定不是你的，就不值得投入太多，一直期待并等待着对的人会欣赏我之前犯过的错。好奇妙的感觉！我想试一试！
All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

读者来信写着：我以为我忘了你。当碰到你的朋友时，他问起我怎么认识他。但却不知怎么，偏偏我说不出你的名字。一直卡在喉咙，知道他认为我在隐藏着什么的。试着，在尝试。还是说不出来。那又怎么能说《若你碰到他》……。成了你的傀儡，一年两年（《妥协》），到现在，我不知不觉地把别人当成是你。都是你。一不小心，翻了你的面博。想要惊叹的，但即刻阻止。你会看到吗？你会在意吗？你会有反应吗？这些，因为曾经被你摇摆，我很肯定你的答案。
小弟今天就为安排以上歌曲，希望心情会好些。振作一点！

原来一个人最脆弱的时候不是失去当中，而是生病时。 我开心的时候，你不在我身边分享我的快乐。 我尝试新东西的时候，你不在我身边指导，赶走我的忧虑。 我病时，你不在我身边问候我。 反正你也不可能做到的，我也能在这几个月好好的，那我还需要你吗？

When I was young, I thought it should be mandatory for best friends to live close to each other. Then I would be close to all that matter. Good thing there is no such policy. Otherwise, when break ups happen, do I move house just to avoid you?

OK, I know USP / Tembusu / Cinnamon / CAPT, all very good, yes. Yes. But I guess my choice oriented from the time I decided to not go VJC and chose TPJC instead. As much as I don't regret over JC, I believe this uni section will be more fulfilling in my sense, one I can 对得起我自己。

沮丧。People can participate in this, that. Yes, I don't have the courage to go try something right out of my comfort zone myself. But are others any better? Aren't they going in pairs and groups as well? Yes, I don't have the financial ability to try expensive sports. I'm just a down-to-earth person, who years to learn all including those I have met with a glass ceiling. Neither do I have the ability to not study and achieve great results. Previous achievements are due to really tough and depressing hard work. My standing now is of worry. So in conclusion, I don't expose myself much, and neither do I seem to progress in the academic sector, the very base of what I can do. What does this make me now?

非常伟大，坚强的女人。但是，受伤的人总是最最这样子。那些伤害别人的却十分逊色。

Muay Thai lesson!
It's such a great opportunity to be given the chance to learn this. I have to write the skills down otherwise I will forget.
Note the differences between boxing and Muay Thai
The stance is different. In Boxing, one faces 45 degrees to his opponent, and the rear (right) leg is almost behind the front leg. Muay Thai places the legs apart in a more horizontal direction.
Two, boxing closes the fists, whereas in Muay Thai, they are open as fingers are supposed to dig into the person's face. Hence, all jabs (left hand), are like a high-five, with a focus on the heel of the palm as point of impact.
Knees are straight forward with the twisting of arms and body an important part, and kicks are either using the front or ball of the foot.
When someone comes and puts arms around neck, eg strangling, put one arm over his arm of that side, and reach past his chin to the opposite shoulder and twist body. If doesn't work, do the same for the other arm, and twist.
If he bear hug around the waist, stick out butt, and open legs wider (by doing a small jump if necessary). Place arms from outside and lock his elbow between your body and your elbow. Both arms will interlock at a very low height below his arms. Twist body, and follow up with a knee or a kick.
And all the sounds that come out during the jabs and kicks become normal, and not awkward.
