I'm not looking forward to no practice for 3 months, especially since I finally put my new bogu to use...even if sensei put a few scuffs on the doh already =/.
But kendo on the mind.. and been listening to some chinese hip hop and just geting off the high of watching everyone at the last taikai resulted is some strange things such as:

Kendo Flow -xin
Get rough with me, make me sore
don't matter who you are once you cross my sword.
don't drop that heel to the floor
or i'll taiatari you out that dojo door.

Take a shot at my indigo men,
you won't be able to see see it coming when I kill the kensen.
what's that written on your Zekken?
want me to write that out in red pen?

Ichigo ichi e
the perfect chance doesn't always come your way
seme through your kamae
don't you dare go easy on me, cuz I'll make you pay
you're in it till then end once you rei

Don't care about no Shobu
if you gonna fight like tofu
i'll mess you up in your bogu
you know how we kendoka do you.

Get rough with me make me sore
if you gonna kendo you better play hardcore.
Imma win today with a 2 point score.

play me from whatever maai
no matter what fancy waza you try,
I won't back down from no tsubazeriai
hits don't matter if your timing ain't a'rite
cuz you gotta be one with that ki ken tai!

-bet you didn't know that even kendoka could flow.

Lol, if you call that flowing, ahahaahah.


I give you props for making me laugh though.

[alegsghed]

hehe.. I am probably the furthest thing from Hip... or cool as you can get. LOL

[NEWyear]

Please, just stick to your hip hop.
Somewhere else.
We thank you. Really.

[fameintatenly]

Well I thought it was cool...

[astonmartinrx371]

hip hip, to the hop hop,
oh my god it wont stop

[Sertvfdnhgjk]

Ever heard of "Titanic: the animated adventure"? Its worse than it sounds and they didn't really write any kind of script, not to mention stealing all of the character designs from disney and bluth movies. The high point though is when half an hour in a salty old sea dog perpetrates the 'party time rap'... needless to say the mexican mice join in. I'll try load it up on youtube.

[MipRippoomamn]

Come on, go easy on arie-re-re-re....wiiiind.... Aries.

Frickadeefreshhhhhhh, word?

[HedgeYourBets]

Fenizzle my Schnizzle extra oil on my take-nizzle!

[steevyjeors]

Please, just stick to your hip hop.
Somewhere else.
We thank you. Really.

Maybe I'm reading too much into that, or I'm being uber sensitive, but I'm not quite sure how to respond to that. Usually when my posts are citisized, I figure its for a good reason or chaulk it up to internet forum culture, but this is the first time here, on KWF, that I feel like I'm getting the message "I don't want you doing kendo, get out of the dojo". Even the trolls that make thier way on here get the couresy of " got inot a dojo, try it out, train."

I'm sure we joined here becasue we want to share our passion for Kendo. How I can express it, is limited to such methods because I really can't contribute much in experience, though I can only hope one day I can do more.
And I will assume that you are defensive of participation in Kendo because you are very passionate about it as well, and I'll do my best not to let my impressions of you here effect the goodwill when we end up crossing paths in real life. (Which in all likelyhood we will or already have, given our geographic location).

I'm sorry you don't like the crappy hiphop stuff, maybe next time I'll try a haiku instead.
