Blissful Ignorance

Chibi-sitter-san and Raspberry-san, you can post your mp3s in the Downloads forum. I just don't know how... Blackrose-sama, we need help!

And thanks to you two for offering!

Witch-chan, how old is your sister? My brother is 21 so how could I fight with him in other way than verbally? Besides, he's tall, well toned and he regulary goes on gym. I don't have any chances to win with him in wrestling match. But sometimes I can make him REALLY mad only by saying few words

You're learning kendo, right? You learn speed through kendo, and sometimes it beats pure muscle. And since you're younger, drag your parents to your side. It works for my sister, but I have LOGIC !!! Well, my sister is 9, and I'm 13, so there's only a bit of a gap. But you should see her. She's FAT, as rude to say it, but she is. And she's the one who goes biking and sporty things all the time, while I sit in front of the computer, or draw, or write poems/stories. And I still win!

Oh, and does anyone know the TWO-MIX song, "True Navigation"? Just wanna ask, is it part if Gundam Wing or is it just a two-mix single?

First: yeah, I train kendo, but I'm training it since September last year. And he goes on gym since he was 15. So my reaction is not too quick. Oh, and he's really good at "street fighting". I really wouldn't like to be his opponet in a fight at bar...*shiver* I think you're winnig with her 'cause you have quicker reaction. And you're thin Your sister it fat as you said and she probably have troubles to hit you as qiuck as you hit her And with parents buisness- yeah, they're always on my side 'cause I'm the younger one. But sometimes they say I had said too much in my and my brother's arguing

Second:Witch-chan you have a soul of an artist...Really. I'm not kidding now.

Third: Sorry, don't know the song. I'll try to check is it a part of GW Operation CDs.

Heero, would you tell me what 'fencing' is like?
I want to do it, I like the looks of it.
I'm a big fan of sword fights, The 3 Musketeers, The Princess Bride, Pirates of the Caribean, etc...does Star Wars count?
Your scenes rule! You beat Dorothy! Duh of course you would!
So, anything I should know about? I'm not a sporty person but I admire the medievil times (don't ask ).

Chibi I think Star Wars were more like kendo... I could tell you something 'bout kendo, 'cause it is fencing but Japanese.

Witch-chan I checked that song. I didn't find it on list of Operations songs, but it could be single from Gundam Wing... Dunno. I can be wrong. I know! Ask Heero! He'll probably know!

Heero do you remember to ask Relena about "Can't Stop Love"?..

Oh yes! yes! tell bout kendo! All my friends like the Yoda vs Dooku fight, not me, the Obi-Wan vs Darth Maul I like

Well ok than

Kendo is called "the Way of Sword". As you know, samurais trained fencing with katanas, but today's kendo is only some sort of that training. We don't kill each other nor train with sharp swords. Martial art where you cut something is called "iaido". Many people who train kendo and have some "dans" also train iaido. My coach says that kendo is not-so-martial-art but rather a sport. As you know, we train using bamboo swords called shinai. When we're doing kata we use wooden swords - bokkens. In kendo are 3 areas of 'cuts' :

head

torso

and arms below elbows.

Don't ask me how many cuts are in kendo - I simply dunno I just train jendo only few months, that's why. So let's go back to topic
In kendo you have to shout a lot. You should see me, short and slighty built girl, shouting louder than adult man You also have to run a lot. And, well, your reflex has to be good *by practising we train it to be good :o * when you want to fight with somebody or defend yourself from his/hers 'cuts'. Kendo is hard sport, but tell me which sport isn't? Hmm, I think it's all for now. If you want to know something more - ask!

Oh cool! I would love to try it but Im a wimp, you should see me run when birds fly over my head
Wufei has a katana right?
I think I learn more on BI than in school
Thanks for the awsome info!

Well, Wufei's sword was not exactly katana. I don't know it's name, but is was something like Chinese saber. Did you saw Matrix Reloaded? Well, Morpheus had a katana when he cut in half that car.

Hey, you really should try kendo. When I said you have to run a lot, I meant that you're runnin' to or from your oppenet. It's quite tiring 'cause you have to have your feet in special position and that is tiring And hey, you're not a wimp! You really should see ME! I'm the smallest of all members in my club! Ok ok, only 2 nine year old boys are smaller than me -_-' It really not depends from you are or not person with good condition But European fencing is cool, too! I heard that people who are left-handed have bigger chances to win the match, 'cause most of fencers are right-handed and they're used to fight with right-handed people

You got me in the 'Kendo' spirit now! I wanna play!
I still think I'm a wimp, I won't even drive a bumper car orgo on rides that turn upside down or drop from very high heights.
I haven't seen any of the Matrix yet, I almost did but my cousins wouldn't be quiet and they kept playing with the DVD remote. So I went to do something else. I think I logged onto the computer
