myOtaku.com: abram


Monday, August 2, 2004


well, this was an intersting week, although by in large, nothing really happened. the major thing i was going to tell you was about my mall experiance yesterday. ok, after going to our re-modeled hot topic i stoped by the knife shop just to drool at the cool katana. i was talking to the sales guy and stupidly misprenounced bokken (a wood practice katana with two edges) as boka (not a clue what that means...) from that point on this guy was a jerk. no matter how much i already knew about the katana in question, he knew more and was going to make it painfully clear that i was no samurai and had no clue what to do with a sword. i've never claimed to be a samurai, or that i wanted to become one. i've only just got truly interested in bugei, bushido, and what-have-you. and i really don't want to become a hard-core bushi. then he went on to make fun of me for being otaku, *and of course i didn't know what that meant* all sarcastic. so he felt like he need to enlighten me.(i did, but don't tell him that... >_<)
the only thing that saved the whole trip was that today one of my friends went and bought two bokudo (wooden practice katana with one edge) because they were only $15, so at least i found out some useful info. i guess it also helped strengthen my resolve to learn all i can about bugei, and someday prove i'm not an idiot....
life sucks...


o, ya. i guess gpetz is working after all. it was just my crapy AOL browser. that's good news.
