Re: Kendo match
Right. I am back from the tournament and after party and all that. The results of the match was a resounding loss. 2-0 with me getting one penalty due to out-of-bounds. Unfortunate, but other than perfecting where the bounds of the court are and making sure I'm centered on my opponent, it was pretty fun. As for how I deal with the whole blind thing, really learning by the sound of your opponent, and the feel of the shinai. Your shinai is a bit like a cane in that you can use it to feel out where the opponent is by feeling about for the shinai. There are still challenges, though. That being said, this was a great learning experience, and I hope to have more figured out by the time of the next tournament. Oh, we do have some good news, though. This was my second exam, and I went up another two ranks. I am now 3-kiyu up from 5-kiyu. (kiyu ranks count backwards with dan ranks counting forwards.)
