I was scared, and I felt very awkward and out of place. Everyone was in uniform, and I was in sweat pants and a Japan-themed T-Shirt, holding a shiny new shinai in my hands, free from dirt, sweat, and marks. They immediately put us in their warm-up routine, and I can still fondly remember struggling to count to eight in Japanese. And then the swinging, and then the footwork...

I had never been so excited, yet so awkward, in my entire life. All of this was less than a month ago though.
