Nah....this is just a photo of a poster i took in Books Kinokuniya in Taka last sunday. Rare to see anything about kendo aropund, since i think only 150-200 people actively train kendo. Its not a easy task, definately not for the faint hearted. and its NOT A SPORT! Its a form of martial arts. :)

Sucky friday :(
Oh man! This sucks! its a friday night....and i am stuck in the here with work! Stupid formulas...! I should be out THERE! where all the action is!
sigh....there is just no end to work. Life is always homework, assigments, projects, deadlines.....etc..etc...
but sometimes u wonder, if without all this work, and deadlines, would life be much better? maybe not.
Haven;t you ever got bored during ur weekends or especially long periods of rest like school hols. Stuck at home with nothing to do. Especially if all your friends are out there doing part time jobs and not free to hang out with u. U have a million things u wanna do when u are busy, but the moment when u are free for too long, WHAM! Boredom strikes!
So sometimes, life isnt always about getting to the destination. Its the process and what you learn along the way that counts. So learn to stop and smell the roses.

Lost of a Great Kendoka
I hate to start of my blog with a depressing note. But I feel this is something that cannot be un-noted.
Kozo Ando Sensei passed away on Thursday 9th October from a brain aneurysm.
For those of us who have had the good fortune to study Kendo under him, please remember him in your thoughts. Our condolences to his family.
On a personal note:
I had the privilege to study kendo under this great sensei. And although it was a short keiko (sparing) session, it has inspired me greatly in persuing the life-long path of kendo.
My greatest regret, besides not being able to learn kendo from him anymore, is that i was not ready when i had the privilege to keiko with him.
Thus not being able to learn the most from his brief. So for the rest of you kendokas out there, please, make full use of every opportunity you have to study kendo from your senseis. And for those not practising kendo, to live life to the fullest. For you will never know what will happen tomorrow, or if tomorrow will ever come.
