Re: The Whatever Thread

Oh fuck me, this cold is officially the worst I've ever had.

I'm waking up every two hours because of my sore throat/nose bleeds, I've got cough headaches, I feel like shit and I had such a bad coughing fit earlier today I pulled something in my chest. I hate being sick

[TheTJ]

That sucks Raya. I hope you feel better soon.

dang it Jeremy!

[Eiron]

Finally got the pictures from my dojo's karate exhibition up. Huzzah.

Spoiler:

All of us sitting in seiza, getting ready to start. I'm sitting in the back row, third from the left.


After standing and bowing, we start off in migi sanchin dachi stance, which we do all our basic hand strikes and blocks in.


First, we do seiken ago uchi, just a basic punch with the reverse hand to the chest.


After all our hand strikes, we start doing blocks. This is us doing chudan uchi uki. You also get to see how massively tall I am compared to everyone else.


After we finish with the blocks, we go on to kicks. Here we're doing mawashi geri, the good 'ol fashion roundhouse kick. I have to pull mine to avoid kicking the blue belt in front of me.


After some reorganizing, I get moved over to the end, so we finally managed to get a picture where I'm not obscured by everyone else. Here we're in zenkutsu dachi, the forward leaning stance.


Oops, gotta pick up the pace.


Now this is what everyone came for, the fighting! This is me and my friend Zack in a kumite, which is where we don't use any defensive gear and fight more competitively than in a normal sparring session.


Oof, there's a foot in my gut.


But I manage to deflect his next kick and knock him off balance, setting me up for some nice body shots.


The last part of the exhibition featured my sensei demonstrating knife defense. Guess who got to be the poor bastard with the knife? This is the two of us sitting in seiza again, about to bow to each other before beginning.


Ow. Note the big goofy grin on Zack's face as I get bludgeoned to shit.


Ow. Zack looks like he's enjoying this so much.


The last move he demonstrated was him knocking me on my ass, ripping my balls out, and stomping on them. The crowd cheered. And that's a wrap! Afterwards we bowed out, picked up the mats, and went home.

[DarkFalco]

wow you're rather tall Eiron.

[Eiron]

Chandeliers are my sworn enemies.

[DarkFalco]

how tall are you exactly? i'm rather tall for a girl 5'8" to be exact....shoes are a paint to find =(

[Fedaykin]

very impressive Eiron how tall are you? I'm 1,98 meters,I know your problem ^^

and I'm still a bit sick and can't go to training,I already miss it...I'm used to go 4 times a week,my last time was on Monday

edit:double ninja'd

[DarkFalco]

jeez 6'5''? in meters i'm 1,77

[Eiron]

Why thank you Fedaykin. I used to go four times a week as well, but it's pretty much impossible for me to do that right now with my college schedule. Now I can only go on Friday and Saturday. And I'm 6'4". I don't have too much trouble finding shoes, but most clothing retailers seem to think that no one can possibly be that tall without also being built like a refrigerator.

[DarkFalco]

i've got a friend with the same problem. he's bout your height as well

[Eiron]

Oh, the woes of being tall. Oh well, now I'm off to finish my essay. >_<

[Fedaykin]

[DarkFalco]

Oh, the woes of being tall. Oh well, now I'm off to finish my essay. >_<

[TheTJ]

Eugh!... Blech... Ew-ew-ew...

OK, so we had a kinda cold winter here in Kentucky. (Yes Kentucky, no red-neck jokes Fobby) Mostly that was fine, except for the fact that cold weather is murder on plumbing. Well, around three, one of our pipes in the basement broke. A sewage pipe.

Guess who got the lovely job of moving soggy ( ) boxes of books.

Bleh....

[DarkFalco]

I'm actually northern Kentucky, so I think we're fairly close. I live about 10 minutes from Louisville. Oh, and I like the new shade of purple.

Oh, so that water must be really deep.

Eiron is quite the handsome man. Also, the pics remind me of a certain awesome signature...

[Eiron]

[JGH27]
