From the diary of a ninja (11): I have a sword !!

Friends, I have a sword! Normally, I would end the text here because it is very difficult to make the joy, the enthusiasm that has taken me control now. But I want to thank him Sensei Cristian Laiiber Which gives me the opportunity to «play», practice and, in the end, to have such a sword. It matters a lot! My sword is very prettyAnd Grea (Now I am ashamed to have complained that the Bokken is difficult, to see from now on which creative will I be in the complaints?) And, the most important: whisper when I do cuts! Now, every time the Bokken will make my self -esteem (because it is stubborn and does not want to whisper – well, I do not perform correctly, but don’t insist on it!)

So, I have a sword !!! As a result, today, as soon as I went home, I went out in the courtyard to take a test. Since I started practicing the sword, I went out in the courtyard in the courtyard and trained with the Bokken at least 30 minutes. I had not proposed to do it today (especially since I was in training), but given the high dose of enthusiasm and the joy of having a new weapon, I could not miss the opportunity.

Short parenthesis. I am lucky to live in the courtyard. It is a very quiet place: there are many trees because we have a plot in front of the house, the fence between the neighbors is quite high and it is from the wall. In short, it is an oasis of tranquility and intimacy: none and nothing annoys you in the courtyard. That’s why I like to go out with the Bokken in the morning to practice.

What you need to know about me is that I have the ability to close the «doors» in the real world and to retire to my world. On the system: «I went to my world, don’t call it from time to time.» It is a type of protective mechanism that is automatically activated when something is terribly bored or when I do an activity that I don’t like. This is how I managed to pass through high school (chemistry, mathematics, physics, mathematics, economics, etc.). This is how «I survived» at the concert Children of the pet shop Since 2007. So boring it seemed to me that I don’t even remember being in the room in that concert, Fortunato I was with two press colleagues (a journalist and a photojournalist and we also have photos of the event). So, I can say that I have a great respect for my nerves and I try to protect them as much as possible by giving «closes» the outside world.

But it is a little more difficult for me to activate this mechanism, it usually activates itself when it is not good for me. Otherwise, I need a certain state and I have to really passion for the activity I do to devote myself to something and not be aware of how it passes and when time passes and not to feel the effort. I close the bracket.

So, here I am on Saturday afternoon, with chefs, conditions and a new sword. I go out in the courtyard and start making naked cuts. The shirts of the sword, I am happy and slowly lost contact with the outside world. It is just me and the sword. I can’t say exactly how long this cutting session lasted, because I lost the notion of time, but at some point I felt tired and a little cold. I started relaxing my hands shaking them a little and for the movement of the hands the sword seemed to attract the air. Slowly, I started becoming connected to the external environment.

The day you have a sword in your hand and know your neighbor

Do you know that feeling you have when a person, who is not in your visual ray, fixes you?! It seems to «burn» the appearance of the person. This is what I heard. I brought the sword to the foot and started to «scan» the dashboard in front of the house. There are still people who accompany their dogs there. There was no one! I turn my eyes on the left and I was not surprised to see my neighbor. I guess she was sitting on the tips to get away with her hands on the enclosure of the wall, she had a throat to the maximum, her eyes swell and breathed strong (you say it was a locomotive, so steaming.

Here I am in a new situation: I have a sword in my hand and the neighbor, with whom I never talked so far away, looked at me. Do it with admiration? Would he be terrified? Is it just curious? I have no idea! I don’t take myself. There have been infinite moments of silence in which we looked at each other for a long time. It seemed to me an eternity. I have many thoughts through my mind and I only give you some examples:

1. Should I reassure him and tell him that he was a training sword, who is not acute?

2.Aoleu! I should have read the penal code as proposed. Why should you postpone so much?! At least I know what to expect … can I practice in the courtyard of the house? If this is panicked and the police called, I hope it will not confess to my sword !! If I get rid of this time, it’s a good time to read the penal code. ?

3 ?

4. Is it a fixation? Who are very good in these!

Finally, I had to end the tormenting silence and … as I didn’t know what it was better to say, I chose the classic «HI!»

-HI!, Say the neighbor.

Other seconds of pressing silence …

-Heat … when you do it with your hand (No – referred to the eight facts when I relaxed my hand), Refuse the attacks with knives, stars and bullets, right? Ask the neighbor.

-.…?! …

-How I saw in the movies … do you know something?! If the Russians come to us, take you as a bodyguard!, He continued in a serious tone.

It is useless to tell you that I laughed for about 10 minutes. Now I’m sorry I don’t know that my neighbor (a 70 -year -old gentleman) has such a high dose of humor. After we had a little while having fun because of my body/Russian fighter skills, I retired to the house.

New rules at home

Taking into account the new purchase, I knew it was a path in my room and convene an emergency session. We need new rules! He said and done. I presented his sword Sony And I told him we have new rules:

1. You are not allowed to smell it.

2. You are not allowed to push it.

3. You are not allowed to sleep.

4. You are not allowed to «wash it».

5. It is not allowed to put the claws or angles in the handle.

6. You are not allowed to permeate it.

7. You are not allowed to attack it.

8. You are not allowed to chew its rope.

9. It is not allowed to get closer to more than 30 cm.

10. The mind: she mine, not yours.

11. Any violation of the above rules, leaves you without cereals for a year. You will only eat what you will catch and it is very possible even on the hunt for me.

Briefly, It is not allowed. Do you understand, Sony?! I looked into the eyes to convince me that he understood something. I think he understood, but it is clear that he is not a roommate I can rely on. So I decided to hide the sword, to put it in a place where the «enemy» cannot reach. Buuun, The sword is safe. So the cat does!

Some from training

I realize that I have not said anything about training. Have passed nine months Since I started attending Ninjutsu courses and I can say that the light starts to be done here (not necessarily in the essential points – I still have work). I know for sure I have gained a lot on mobility and, very important, I don’t complain about … any fool … ok, I reform: I don’t complain in my big mouth. I do it less, in my mind.

Yesterday I rolled (or how I call them «census of the coasts»). First, back, side, from above, at the bottom, everywhere! I still can’t be «round», so every time I roll I can count exactly every coast that I pass. Also, after I have rolled a few times and have come standing, I started seeing red, yellow, white, licorice stars everywhere. Thousands and thousands were. I think if I had gnawed several times, I would have seen a dragon (not the other, but how many films with the dragons I have seen lately, what else could I imagine?!). The word of Alina, a training colleague: «Oh, look! My race is here! Let’s go!!»

Finally, that’s all. I come back with updates to future articles. Now I will read the penal code.
