Re: Sempai comments that stick with you...

It wasn't a statement. It was a technique. We were doing katate mochi sokumen iriminage in class and I just didn't get the point. So I asked a sempai to do the technique to me so that I could understand it. When I woke up, he was staring down at me asking if I was ok...
