Assorted amusing quotes from yesterday:

"I get nervous when I hear things like penis envy."

"If God could part the Red Sea then maybe, just maybe, if you are reaaallly good, he can give you back your hymen."

(said to me) "Are you cheating on me with that lesbian?"

I'm going to kendo practice later this afternoon even though I feel like a hippo stomped on the right half of my body after the last practice...it was the fault of the advanced student I was training with who decided I should learn the kote and men strikes with a red oak bokken !!

Of course after about 30 strikes with the sword held up above my head, my arms were aching and the sweat dripping from my forehead. Those suckahs are heavy! The stance is a little difficult to get used to, this is where my previous training does not come in handy at all..I'm used to angling my back foot out a bit but that throws my hips all off square when I'm in chudan or indeed any stance, so I have been practicing walking "square" all over campus...needless to say my thighs did not appreciate it! :-p

Hopefully sensei will totter out and dazzle us with his swordsmanship. Apparently on Saturday he took on 4-5 challengers on one after the other and barely broke a sweat doing it...and the man's 70-something years old! If I'm half as sprightly at his age I will count myself lucky.

The good thing about kendo practice is I get to wear my karate pants from back in the day..yay! If I can find them..hahaha
