So it turned out to be a VERY good thing...

Last blog post I mentioned passing my level 2 renewal exam.

Turns out I am the only level 2 in South Africa that did so.

This is good... Because suddenly my chances of being sponsored to go to pro tours went from "the level 2 who is living in George, 430 km away from any real magic" (the irony of that term is beautiful, isn't it?) to the judge who drives 430km just to judge regionals.

And in other news... Shirley and I just passed the 6 months mark in our relationship. (yup, she'll be reading this!)
