Good morning!
Phew! I surprised I woke up on time for the study pool! Thought I will never make it like I always do. *blush* But the first thing I did in the morning is log on to my blog to check my comments, which I think it ain't too logical thing to do. My blog isn't as hot as http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/ , why should I be expecting comments posted up when my blog is only less than 1 day old! Hmm... I guess the only logical explanation is that I'm always excited over something new. *runs and jumps around the room*
It has been a long long time since I've last touched my diary. Mind you, I'm not going to tell you my really really really personal things here... Something really personal such as the girl that I secretly admired in my class... Wait, don't force me!!! I'm not going to say anything about it. Period, that's it, no way I'm going to say it... But anyway, I think blogging is pretty neat. ^_^
Yesterday Kendo training was pretty fun, except for the fact that I have to vomit half way through the training. Uh... I felt like vomiting right after an intense series of kote-men kote-men cuts. I later found out I drank too much of water before training. Ouch. But! The jigeiko(free excercise) at the end was great! My confidence finally came back and my cuts starting to become better. Well, ever since the last Kendo youth tournament I was in, I've totally lost confidence in all the cuts I made, even during the following trainings I wasn't able to make a nice cut. Oh well, I'm glad I've finally pulled myself together. *grin*
Talking about the jigeiko, I finally learned about the importance of getting ready to attack at every moment. For every opponent that I'm against with, I've made atleast one cut that I'm satisfied with. For me, which I believe it's the same for every Kendo practitioner, satisfaction is one of the important aims during each training.
However, I did a few "ugly" Kendo cuts during the jigeiko, which I'm not sure if it's ugly afterall. (I define "ugly" Kendo cuts as those cuts that wasn't being taught formally during the trainings, but I've only learned Kendo for a few months, so I can't really define it well). I learnt those techniques by watching Kendo tournament videos and observing how others make their cuts. During the jigeiko, I did a few counter-attack with a kote by bending my head (which we're suppose to keep our body straight), and a deceiving kote-or-men cut, which carried out successfully, I think. *blushes* Anyway, many thanks to those who's willing to train with me! ありがとございます!
