Random Jokes from emails:

Smart blonde.

A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each other on a long flight.
The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game.

The blonde is tired and just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists, that the game is a lot of fun. "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5; you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."

This catches the blonde's attention; and, to keep him quiet, she agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches in to her purse, pulls out a $5 note, and hands it to the lawyer.

Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"

The lawyer uses his laptop, searches all references. He uses the Airphone; he searches the Net and even the Library of Congress. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, all to no avail.

After one hour of searching he finally gives up. He wakes up the blonde and hands her $500.

The blonde takes the $500 and goes back to sleep.

The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes her up and asks,"Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"

The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back tosleep.


They are all the same

One Chinese person walks into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him, and asks for his autograph.

Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Harbor, get out of here."

The astonished Chinese man replied "It was not the Chinese who bombed your Pearl Harbor , it was the Japanese".

"Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same,"
replied Spielberg.

In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg a slap and says "You sank the Titanic; my forefathers were on that ship."

Shocked, Spielberg replies "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me."

The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the same."

Kendo grading on Sunday 16 December 2007

Chikushi Sensei came down to judge for the grading!! Super happy to see him and glad to be able to keiko with him!

Wah! Miss him sooo much since we came back from the Asean tourny. Must plan to go KL to find him one day! He's still the same humorous & passion about Kendo.

Congratulations to everyone who passed their grading & those who did well too! I'm very happy for Yixin as she really tried her very best during the grading & it was very clear too. Some people believes grading depends on luck & i think its quite true to a certain extend but i alwaz believe that if u passed based on your hard work, or if u feels that u 'luckily' passed, the most important thing at the end of the day is to train even harder after the grading. Then you really deserves the grade.

Over these few years in kendo, i have seen many people working hard or giving up in kendo. i have seen people who doesn't do so well at first but never stop trying until they achieved a sense of satisfaction in their own kendo. There are also those who started out as the 'gifted' or 'potential' ones but later gave up or just become lazy. i believe in talented people but i believe more in getting a greater sense of satisfaction if u had actually work hard for it.

Guys, be ready to start envy:

Nature's joke on us:

I have not been blogging much after my trip back from Japan but i have put up some photos i took in Japan in my friendster so everyone can go there and see.


Basically the trip was much shorter compared to my previous trip to Japan. But this trip was as fruitful as the previous because we got to see Takeuchi Sensei!! And other great students of his who treated us wif such good hospitality we were so touched.



The best part was going there with such great friends and seniors of mine! It was definitely an enjoyable trip that i hope we would have more in future.
