Freshman Year, Winter Quarter: Kendo

• Interesting note: tried to join Kendo autumn, but missed registration period because of chaos of first weeks. did not make same mistake this time.
• chose Kendo because felt like it was a good source of martial arts training and physical conditioning, wanted to do something physical.
• worried it would be too hard, but fortunately was able to get into it well.
• still very demanding, get callouses every week.
• Community very good, go on Fridays to bubble tea.
• Unfortunately, scheduling made it so that I can only go once a week, still hope to maintain skill
• While don't intend on becoming competitive, would like to become better at it, definitely will continue it.
• one negative point: very expensive
