Not-So-Noob Swordswoman

So yesterday my boyfriend got me addicted to a German Swordsmanship group at a local college.

I wasn't planning on participating, but a guy named Peter handed me a sword and said "Here's what they're doing."

And after working with me for about twenty minutes, I'd gotten down a couple moves that he said I didn't do  'noobish', which made me feel happy.

I know a move to do when the two sword's hilts are together. I wrap my hilt and grip around the other person's arm, grab the pommel, drag the person down, and slice the person's throat. And from there I can also disarm the guy.

I feel like a boss.

And I can swing around the sword in 'correct' ways around my head and look like a boss.

But when I got home I realized how very 'hipster' I was acting. Deer Lawd...
