  The practice today wasn't too great; it was unbearably hot; and I got stabbed in the throat with a stray kensen. The unintentional tsuki wasn't that bad (my windpipe didn't collapse or close up, thank god), but it did make me choke and retch for a bit.
Apparently, I'm eligible to take part in the next ASEAN Kendo Tournament in 2007, because I have Thai nationality. I think there's a problem with finding enough people; a few people who have dan rank do not have enough time to practice. Still, I will have to do some serious training to get a chance of being selected. Three years should give me enough time to get shodan and myself into shape. No practice till next week.
