Aching....Aching...Aching...
Monday, December 17, 2007


Its not that I got nothing better to do, but I did someting tt can be considered as silly, someting that can be considered as 'no need to do', something that is considered as ' can dun do but go and do'.

Alright, so wad is it?

I was a partner for my friend going for her aikido black-gold belt. Simply put, u b thrown, locked, slammed, twisted by the black belt.

Come-on, how hard is it considering my nxt belt is oso black? Well, it shldnt be that hard, if not for the fact that I've been too busy with my 2 night classes weekly to go for any training at all for the past 3MONTHS! 3MONTHS! This would effectively means 3 months without any form of exercise, besides walking. And wads more, I 've not even chasing after bus or walking much cos these days I grown a fetish for raising my left hand on the side of the road waiting for those vehicle with the yellow light to stop infront of me.

Oh, so, I survived yesterday. Its not tt bad considering we got 2 of us switching in and out during each technique shld we b unable to hold out. Afterall, we aint the ones graded, if we are tired, we can switch out.

I started out with the surawi-waza, aka attacking in the kneeling position, it wasnt tt bad cos mainly is locks and no rolling and slamming, so I hanged in there. Then the hamehatachi, aka i m standing and my fren is on the kneeling position. Still not so bad, only one technique I m rolling, well, actually is two, cos one technique got the omote and ura, aka positive and negative. So I still hang in there. When my friend finally started defending on the standing side, and I keep havin to roll, that's when things get red (mainly my face and hers), and vision started fading...lol...

I actually agreed with the other partner that I would do the kneeling on only and change out when its standing attacks, but since I m not too tired. I hanged in there for ard 25min. Fortunately, I gave up and switch out jus on time before the 'irimi-nage'. Basically it is one when the unfortunate attacker will be smashed to a kneeling position, dragged up and thrown backwards. Imagine doing this technique min3 times, using 3-4different attack positions. Lemme count, 12times. Yep... its mOst tiring.


I watched my freshly started fren get drained out of her energy. And finally, one technique after the irimi-nage, she signaled for me to go in.

Well, I survived and skipped the irimi-nage, so my worst nightmare is over. But I know of cos this would mean.....I m taking the koshi-nage. Koshi-nage, is the hip throw. So my fren, will be throwing me via the hip. Not so bad aint it? Well, only thing is, its a slam, not a roll. So basically, I m to be slammed min 4 times over 3different attacking methods.

Slamming shldnt be that hard, but considerin me who haben been training for 3 mths, and the fact that I nv really dared to do slams so I m not , well, fluent in it, i m abit scared of it. With all the camera flashing all around and the whole grading being filmed down, it is indeed abit, well, stressful.

Anyway, I survived it. I slammed beautifully. Nice pose, nice slam, nice slamming sound. LOL! Ok, i m not paise to say I slammed beautifully cos in my standard, its a beautiful slam, cos I erh, sometimes managed to slam un-beautifully. Lol. So anyway, I slammed beautifully and I m proud of it.

After that, we all took a rest while the 1st dan, 2nd dan, 3rd dan people graded. Wad dan??? Well, basically, its grades after black-gold, and is usually those instructors. Its impressive, having 5attackers attacking you, with weapons.

Finally after that, everything is over.

YEAH! And well, I went to fetch the oven from my aunt's place and everything is over.

Woke up this morning and I found that I cant move, much. I m aching, especially my butt muscle. I realised I din do the butt-stretch. Apparently there is a sexy stretch to stretch that muscle, which I dunno. Well, so, yep.

Aching achin aching.

Who ask me to go and not warm up properly and who ask me to go for such things after not training for 3mths and of cos, who ask me go for it when I jus went zoo on sat and walked the whole day in the rain (with poncho) ... Yep, I went to zoo..but, tt'll be another post for another day.

For Now..I tink I gonna go find some salom-plus...

*ouch*
