Ahhh. :)
Just had a refreshing session of fencing with a hallmate... A--- the sabreur with whom I went to the fencing shop on Sat. We started at 9pm, and fenced non-stop for an hour and a half... using both the foil and sabre. It felt awkard at first... we did it in a section of the dining hall, and our S'porean and M'sian friends came down to witness us "spar", while studying at the same time. A--- was so full of humour and funny antics so many a time we just burst out laughing. Our friends kept chuckling too. I couldn't concentrate at all, so we just fenced for pure fun and joy. Bah... we were in no mind to think of tactics. I still hold my ground in supporting the notion that women sabreurs should not fence against guys... they're so much more aggressive and violent!
Today's BUSA match against Sussex having been cancelled, I didn't have a chance to 'break in' my new kit proper. Instead, I had the priviledge of doing so in my hall's dining room. :P
