Wow, I don’t know what to say. I’ve been busy with school, so I haven’t really been around much to keep up with the blog, so I’m a little surprised, to say the least.

Memoirs of a Grasshopper
Why read? Because it’s a peak into the training journal of a full-time martial arts student living and training under Grand Master Morio Higaonna.

Hello! My name is Lauren Mayhew.
My music video “What You Don’t Know” stars SICK SIDESWIPE martial artist Matt Mullins. (Sideswipe has their own show in Vegas, they did all the martial arts for Britney Spears Tour, and they tour the world!)
My song from the music video has aired on MTV’s “Taking the Stage.”
I was thinking you might want to feature the video on your site!
Enjoy!
