	<body><![CDATA[I have not writen fo a while, havent had time.  I will be testing for 7th que  in december.  I predy much know all the terms when I hear them I jsut cant say them.  I also recently recovered form a knee injory wich still sometimes gives me truble.  Lattly thow I been also when I rool hurting middly my sholder mostly my left but both of them, the sisay dose not seem to think that I am doing the rollls wrong.  spicly backward ones, but still I wonder it should not be causing me pain should it?  I also am still looking to see if there are any dojos near Humbolt area since I will be at HSU in the fall.  No luck so far , but then it is a small place, so porhaps not.   I trying to get back into going 3 times a week , I had to cut back to once a week due to my injory.  I also am atteing a small dojo and I still feel like an outsider... I try to help and stuff but they seem to be on a diffrent page then me.  :confused: Oh , well I don't fit in most places , thow I still feel somehow concted middly to this dojo. Well that is enoff rambaling for today.]]></body>

	<body><![CDATA[Greatings,
   I have been up and down with this one Sinsay .....well since I stared.  He is good but he is not a "teacher".  Anyway, he had myself and one other guy.  Now this guy is a month away form talking a black belt exam, hwover he spent 5 mints on my requriments and when I did not get how to the pin and he like we work on it a diffrent time.  Ofcorse my intal thought was yea and this is why i don't get how to do anything its not taught to me.   anyway so i spent most of the class siting watching, with few exchptions because he would not even teach me how to do the ecem part.  I mean that would be a revew for the brown belt with i understand gets more of the time ... if we had more students it would nto have been the whole class.  sodo i tell head sensay ...do i aproch the sinsay and ask why he seems to  do that only to me...or what do i take away from this:mad: :confused:]]></body>

	<body><![CDATA[Hay focks,
So, the other night I was doing a simple froward role, I not sure what I did but I kinda hurt my back.  I done this kinda thing before and it pass like a bruses.  This time thow it did not pass for most of class , I kept doing what I could in class.  However, I know I made some mistakes becuse some part of me was afrid it was going to hurt my back.  However, I still went, on of course it mostly comd down now. I think what happend was that I must have ofsily done the role wrong at some point and it triged my scolosis musle sapasm thing.  Anyway, the question is ... at one point a higher up student asked if my back hurt and I shok my head , knowing that what he would have to say is make me not pestpate. He siad I was making him nervious.  I siad I was ok and don't say anything to teach. The respose of the student was I have to I have this brown belt.... anyway so my question is what are rules for the difent belts?]]></body>

	<title><![CDATA[Some updates on traning]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[So.... I have been kinda not geting alot Akido tecneques... I still don't. However.... I notaced that I can do better offten when I am not thinking to much about what I am doing and just going on what snsyay said or what I understand him to have siad.  So... I am thinking that alot of Aikiod is a covence thing or trusting your self.  
I love my dojo thow they are all nice.... even thow I wish they would explan more or that I was better at asking what I want too knwo.... I not even sure some of time other then I do nto knwo how to that whole thing Then agin I have always had that problem.
I actuly think that Iam going to miss Akido when I am in London for a month studying abrod.  I will at lest to some degree.]]></body>

	<title><![CDATA[rodom thoughts and questions]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[So... agin this is sorta roandom , but I supose that is how my brin works.
I am noticing that there seems to be to grups of people in the art of Akido ither relly yong or like old like at lest late 30's and up. they yong sem to be 8-14.  Is this jsut my area or is relly true?  If so why is that and also why is that grils do not seem to be all that pravelent in the sport thow I seem more grils in this activey then in many other maural arts?]]></body>

	<title><![CDATA[Truble with conmunication...]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[So... For last few class when we do rolls I have been watching.  Now this seems and undstandably so ,like I am not doing what sinsis has siad to do wich is do rolls.  However, I have a delmea...and it goses like this.  I only know conplntly how to do a forward roll.  I knida know how to do a slaping one , but only form the grond not standing and everyone else dose it standing.  I used to have a simaler problem with the forward roll and finaly after watching I figrued out how to do that one.  So, since they are tryed of explaning or have not explaned how to do the roles I am watching to figure it out.  Also,I am trying to figure out what the other rolls are and how many you are suposed to do and how to do the ones I am relly unfimaler with.  Since they seem not to want to give me gadace... this is the only way I know how ... besicedes it is one of lurning... 
My delma is thow a few of the higher rancking students ask why I am not doing them and if there was a reson.. I felt like explaning .... but could not think of how to say it in a way that did nto acusss them of anything nore seem like i was anyoned just after doing somany wrong ... i am kidna scared to jsut try, they then tell me i am gign to brack my neck or wrist.  
Dose anyone have any advace on how I can ither telll them and sinsinsay that I am lurning through that way or better how do ask for how to do it and what am i asking rely?
Blesed be!]]></body>

	<title><![CDATA[odd Question]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[Background: I have been taking akido since March 30, 2009.  I have not mastered a single thing.  I knia know the 3 teques of the 7th kue test.  I know how to role forward , most of the time.  Other then that I not confint of any of it.  I still need lots of help.  I farily sure I suposed to be beter then I am.  For espely latly so of what my sinsay's seem to be doing seems a bit scary over wellming and I am expected to knwo how to do it kninda aor atlest be able to atack on it.  I kinda do the atack ok.  For example, we did this active where you throw the person over your back, i was not even sure how to land porporly, so I kinda did  not want to to do.  We also did this high falls.  Now , I kinda wanted to just watch, and try to figure out what was being done since the techeres were not explaning it in a way i understuud.  That did not relly go over well, so I tryed anyway.
Also, do not fully understand the termnonaly used yet.  I know I will be slow on this one I have atory porsing disorder and dislexia.  ( in other words i dont here the volues the same way and i see the words difrently at times).  I also have asbugrs so luring new socal rules is a changle , since I dont understand the normal ones.  However, untill recently I had someone explan them to me.  My dojo has nice people wom till recently were patant with me and helped me with all akido actives.
Howver , agin I feel like I am way behind where I suposed to be and techer is anyed with that.  Gess kinda. 

Questinon: So, my question is am I in the wrong activety?
Any opions would be helpfull , thanks in advance.

Sorry for the long entry , but I wanted some opions and only way to relly give them would be understand the suation.]]></body>
