Bummed: Missed Kendo Class today!

Sorry for not writing a lot. Oh well.

I am writing today because I am super super super bummed! I missed Kendo class today!!!!!!!!!!! :( :( :(

Why?

I was hanging out with Kendo people last night (we went to an awesome restuarant!!) but we ended staying up late. No big deal to that- I've done it before and its been ok.

The real problem was when I tried to ride the subway home. I kinda took the wrong train, and it took several stops for me to realize it. Then I had to back track, but it was difficult because it was like, I couldn't find the right train going in the direction I wanted!!

But when I did, I had to wait soooooooooooooooooooooo long for the train, because it was late at night. It seemed like it took an hour for the two different trains I had to wait for. Add on top of that the fact that it was daylight savings time... that didn't help...so we lost an hour.

With daylight savings, I got home at about 4:30 am!!! And I got in bed at 5!! If I go to Kendo, I need to be up at usually 10 am or so because it takes so long to ride the subway even without any problems... when things are running smoothly (and quickly)...it usually takes about 1.5 hours or so. :*(

I was going to try to make it anyway (on 5 hours or less of sleep) but I slept through my alarm clock! OMG I am SO bummed. I just woke up and Kendo class has been over for several minutes.

On the other hand, I did get to wear my hakama and gi (the ones I ordered) for the first time yesterday. That was super cool.
I just wish I could have worn them today, in class again.

I always look forward to Kendo classes. They are like a bright spot in my week. (ugh, my grad school classes... sometimes they are kinda boring...) It's something I do that I enjoy and also I get to meet other people that are pretty cool. But now I have to wait another week before I can go to Kendo again.

Stupid grad school evening classes- why can't they offer classes during the day like most colleges? It's so stupid. I want to go to more Kendo classes instead!!!!!!

Well that's my little rant. Other news on the Kendo front: uhm, I need to improve my kendo a lot. Uhm, a new girl joined the dojo just recently, she seems pretty awesome...shes got a fun personality. uhm, I want to go to Kendo more. :cries:

Oh well, patience is a virtue I guess...
