Oosaki-sensei stood beside me the whole time, watching and helping me with everything from how to walk up to where I fire from to how to pick up my second arrow (while wearing the glove. Not as easy as you may think). They told me that usually girls have trouble getting the arrow all over to the side the target's on. Well...I got it over all right!
WHOOOSH!
"Where did it go?"
"I can't see it..."
Haha! XD I was far from the target, but Oosaki-sensei patted me on the back and said it was well done. And I fired my first proper arrow! So I've been happy the entire evening. ♪〜ヾ(*⌒∇⌒)ツ☆
Actually, I used Yumiba-senseis arrows since my red ones were at school. The feathers on these arrows are quite worn, so that makes them go a bit here and there too. Still - I won't say my technique is perfect either! ：P Tomorrow's training again! 。o@(^-^)@o。
The picture is of my teammates training. OK, so Kuramura is fixing his bow and Hamada is... ehm...well. Not. In this picture. Which is why I took it. XD He sat up in seiza when he heard a teacher coming, hehe!(^ε^)
Oh - I'm seriously attached to my bow now...

Gratulerer, Kompis. I følge "Zen in the Art of Archery" er det da heller ikke om å gjøre å treffe noe som helst på det stadiet du er nå. :o)
OH CONGRATULATIONS HONEY! I am so happy for you! I am almost crying now hahaha. I'm listening to a quite heartbreaking score while writing this, so it adds up to my emotional state! But I've been through that whole shooting-my-first-arrow-stage, and it's just so fulfilling to see the arrow just leave your bow at an incredible speed! And I imagine it must be even MORE special at kyudo! Oh and I totally understand your attachment to your bow. I adore my own. It is my goddess, the very embodiment of beauty, elegance and great power :D
Congrats ;) Og god jul!
