I wish I was kidding....... I had never even been in a fight (let alone the squared circle)

this might sound cliché, but learning kendo helps me overcome my fear of failure. ngl i still feel intimidated every time i'm at the dojo, because the training is very intense, lots of shouting and stomping, but i know i'm not gonna learn anything if i let fear control me. "fear is the mind killer." i may look stupid as i try to keep up with the senseis and senpais, but all i care about is learning. having someone scream and charge at you with a bamboo sword is fucking terrifying, but you have no choice but to face them and strike back. everyone gets hit anyway, so just do it. even the most seasoned senseis have failed countless times before. failure is part of success.
maintaining that mindset helps me in other aspects of my life. ever since i started learning kendo 2 years ago, i've stepped outside of my comfort zone more. trying new things, taking on challenges more. sometimes i fail, but that's okay, the point is to try and learn. 
so yeah, i highly recommend taking up martial arts or combat sports. not only is it good for physical fitness, it builds determination and confidence.

Again, I love mess. I only went to high school for a year before leaving to do independent study (I thought I was gonna be famous but ended up working at the mall so I lost the ability to write with a pencil for basically no reason) and the thing I always found myself missing was a good tussle. I remember this one foggy morning when two girls duked it out in front of the bathroom stall while I shat before first period choir class and I can’t help but smile. A public fight is a beautiful, erotic thing; it’s a flash in the pan of boundless energy and unfettered passion, providing a very primal catharisis that words just cannot. When these moments are captured on camera, I can live vicariously through my fourteen year old self who was once the gleeful Snapchat voyeur at the scene of the crime. Reddit and Twitter are rife with great fight pages if you ever need to indulge yourself with something feral and nasty.

I swear I'm always so tense I need to remind myself multiple times a day to relax or I’ll carry the tension into the next day.
