Today we had a winter sports day at school. NO CLASSES! Judo! Kendo! Traditional dancing! It was my first time watching Kendo, and I was blown away. My students were like young Jedis. Kendo is a more badass version of Star Wars lightsaber battles.
I was exhausted from just watching it all day. I came home and had my own little TGIF party for one: heated up some leftover macaroni and cheese, cracked open a Sapporo, and caught up with the newest Vampire Diaries episode online.
A group of us are going skiing in Hakuba this weekend, so I’m off to do some last-minute packing. I’m excited to check out the Japanese ski scene. I hear neon is the color du jour. Will report back!
Happy weekend.
What Fun & Something New to Check Out! Happy Friday:)
KENDO IS THE BEST! my university has a kendo team and it is so enthralling to watch them train because it just seems like so much fun to whack a stick around and get all your anger out of your system.
also the star wars. it is such awesome.
How cool! I am intrigued! We really need a sports day at our school — no classes — just playing and a really great workout! Thanks for the inspiration & the amazing photos!
