Well, I've just returned from my first ever Tae Kwon Do tournament.  I placed 4th out of 8 in my division, which strikes me as a pretty good placement:  I'm in no danger of developing an ego from this -- I was eliminated in the second round.  But, the four judges scored it as a loss, a loss, a loss, and a tie.  A tie!  That's enough to convince me that it wasn't a complete rout, so I can safely declare it a good day.
Well, almost.  After my competition, I was watching another match with one of our class instructors.  Just out of curiousity, I asked, "So -- have there been any grievous violations of etiquette that we'll hear about next week?"
His smile dimmed a little.  "We'll talk about that later."
Uh-oh.  I know I stuck my tongue out at the camera during a group shot, but I didn't think anyone was going to notice until after the photos were developed.
If I don't post anything on Tuesday, it's because I'm still doing push-ups.

Were they actually using a film camera? These days problems with photos are discovered much sooner than after development. :-)
I'm just hoping against hope that the camera that took the offending picture actually belonged to the parent of some other student, and that it'll take a little while for the grapevine to initialise.
It's a long shot, I know.
