3rd Kyu

I just got back from my Kendo Examination, and I made it!!! :-D I am so happy right now, I am already 3rd Kyu. I took my first Examination for 5th Kyu. So now I have 2nd and 1st Kyu left before going onto the 1st Dan. :-D

Wooooosh, so awesome!!! :-DDDDDD Gotta wait for my new diploma!

Victory

Yesterday was the last day that we trained this season. So there was actually an inofficial competition that I won! As a prize I got a medal. :-D



After the training we all went out to eat sushi at my favorite sushi restaurant: Asian Sushi Bar that I wrote about in an earlier entry. This time I tried out the big Veg. Sushi with 10 pieces instead of 6. Good thing I didn't eat breakfast, it was sooo delicious~


Watch out for the Korean guy...

Yep, watch out for the Korean guy if you wanna keep yourself alive. Gosh, I mean it he's deadly. When I was sparring against him he pushed me so hard into the wall once again and then he did a "baseball" hit right on my hip. Guess if I've got a black mark in a very unpleasant and inhuman colour? Hahaha ouch :( my wrist injurie hasn't even healed yet. I don't know how, but why does it seems that I am the only one that comes home with injuries all the time? Haha :( Wellwell, I just have to endure it.

Pretty fun eh, I'm the only girl and the youngest person among 13 adult guys. Heh :c

Btw, it is so fun to know that I have quite many new readers again. I am gonna update as much as possible :-)

Ja Ne~

Soon you will be mine, my love :3

Hoho, just gotta tell you about it, it's just so awesome. Today I ordered my bougu for the kendo a 4 mm, it cost about 2500 swedish crowns ~ 250 euro. It's just awesome :-))) At first I was supposed to buy the cheaper 6 mm but my wrists got really injuried on the previous training at thuesday. So dad thought I should choose the more expensive one so my wrist won't turn into this unnatural colour anymore T_T Well well, here's my baby, that will arrive in approximately in 2 weeks :3



While talking about kendo, we have soooo many newcomers this year. AWESOME! :-D Even though they are so forceful when they are attacking that it hurts as hell (the reason for me being injured!) so I better watch out. We also have a Korean guy that practiced with us last week, but he never showed up this week, huh, wierd. Wellwell, it's awesome with my new bougu. The thought of never having to use the club's armours are just such a reliefe :-)))

Sweet Sunday?

Konnichiwa Mina-san! :-)

Gosh today I just feel great. Feels just awesome since I told you about how bad everything's been, but now it's TipTop! :-D

So, what have I've done today? I have been to morning practice as usual. It was especially fun today since we have a lot of newcomers. 2 weeks ago we got 2 beginners and a Korean guy (he had trained for like 3-4 years eralier and he was brutal!O_O), today we also got 2 more new beginners but as well a guy that has trained for Uppsala earlier for 2 years so I hope all of the 6 new comers will stay!

And also 2 days ago I had a "Jubileum" since I had trained for a whole year! So that I had to celebrate! :-)

And today's practice was aswell great, I got to be the captain today (yep, that gives you a lot of respect!) and everything was just great, I guess :-)




So for the rest of the day, I am going to watch some dramas and I need to catch up on the released episodes of the animes I follow.

And I need to study, a lot! Swedish, English, ARL, Japanese and Math ._.' Huh, better get started.

Ja Ne~ :-)))


Morningpractice sure is great!

I just love to workout in the morning, sweating for about 2 ½ hours before starting the day. And today it went just awesome. Usually my focus is really bad at sundays, but today everything felt just great! In the last keiko my trainer sprained his ancle, kinda ironic that the doctor had to fix patch himself up! Well well, today dad did also tell me that next term, in spring I will get my own armour. Woohoo! I just feel great today. But something that doesn't is great, is the bad smell from the workout, haha, time for a shower!

Hope you have a good sunday! :-)


Sekken

I have finally got it, it's for my bogu (my armour) in kendo! First is the name of the city/club I'm training with for and then it's my first name in Katakana and last is my two last names. Hoho, now I'm really happy. :-)


Sunday

Hello!

Came back from practice a while ago and it didn't go that well. My wrist does still hurt and my koncentration was really bad. Well, well. Hopefully it will go better at thuesday instead.

Today are my plans to clean my bedroom. Study some hair & skin chemistry, and some hiragana.

And if I have time over I will sew the rest of the new sweater that I started with yesterday. So when it's finished I will show you some pictures!

 

And also if I have the time over I'll write something alot more interesting (imo). :-) So til' then! :-)


A looooong weekend with just kendo!

Hi! Finally I'm home. Guess if this weekend was fun? Gosh it was just pure awesomeness. First day was only invidualcompetitions. So Mathias won his first 2 matches and went on with another 2 matches which he also won and after that he went on with two matches again but in the second one of those he lost. But for his first match it was just amazing! Muzammil, won the first 2 matches but in the next one he lost against a Japanese Kendoka called Yamamoto (gosh he's my new idol, you should just see how fast he was! 10 seconds and the match would be over, no kiddin'). Fredrik won his first match but lost in the second one (But his fightin spirit was great, but the opponent was greater.)

Henrik went as long as Mathias did but he also lost on the way to the final since the opponent was though.

And today Henrik and Anders (my trainers) did take the Exam. And both passed! Only 8 of 21 persons passed. So that's was great for them to receive 1th and 2th Dan.

I've taken about 250 pictures and about 50 movies! So they will come up as soon as I have time for it!

Hope your weekend has been as good as mine!


Almost done packing

Now I'm almost done packing. I'm always out in the last second to pack my stuff. But there are a quite few things left to pack. So as I mentioned earlier. I'll leave at 5.30 so in the car to Stockholm I'll probably blog a bit since it will take 1 ½ hour and now I'm able to take my computer with me also :-)

Hope you'll have a great and cousy friday and a great weekend! :-)


Weekend

And so it finally arrived. The longed for Stockholm Kendo Open. And that means that I'm going to Stockholm the whole weekend just in order to feel, breath and watch the wonderful moments of the most exciting sport in the world: Kendo! Am I happy or what? :-)))

I've made myself a packlist so I won't forget anything. I also need to do my Japanesehomework and if possible I'll bring a computer with me. I will also bring a kamera so I can make sure to take some photos. It's gonna be AMAZING.

The only con about this is that I'll have to go to bed around 19.00 since we're leaving home at 5.30 and at 4.30 I'll have to up as the latest time.

But tomorrow will just be totally awesome I'm so looking forward to it. Yaaaay! *-*




Time for bed

Now it's time for me to go to sleep. I'm quite tired even if the time is just 01.06, and I slept kinda late this day. But oh well. I have morning practice so I have to go up around 9 a.m.



So see you tomorrow :-)


Söndag!

Hallå! Hoppas ni haft en bra dag. Själv har jag haft en riktigt mysig dag. Gick upp kl 9 för att göra mig iordning för träningen och packade ner min hakama och gi och sånt. Sen tränade jag mellan 10.30-12.00 d.v.s ett kort pass på endast 1½ tim. Har ju legat sjuk sen i torsdags och är ännu inte frisk men jag ville så hemskt träna så jag körde det lugnt idag. Många av oss var krassliga så vi tränade istället Kata 1 & 2, vilket jag aldrig kört förrut, utan jag kan endast Kihon Kata 1,2,3 & 4! Men det var kul. Sen fick jag dömma som huvuddomare eftersom vi tränar inför Stockholm Kendo Open om mindre än 1 månad!

Efteråt åkte jag och pappa in till V-ås, lämnade och lånade böcker på biblioteket igen och sen letade vi Duffel till pappa (en jacka). Jag köpte även den väst som jag suktat efter i en månad och nu är den min ^-^, ska handla mera imorgon ev om mina pengar hinner komma in på kontot, ska köpa en mössa, vristvärmare och en halsduk!

Visar bild lite senare av min väst också! ^-^
