Go oriental
Last night I've been up until 3:00 a.m. The hot Ylang-Ylang bath relaxed me completely, after then I always feel like living in the world of the 1001 Nights Tales. :-) I love oriental scents, from this aspect I am quite a romantic person I think :-)
Today I crawled out of my bed at 11:00 a.m., but only because I have to finish cleaning up the flat until family returns from their meditation weekend in our retreat center.
I also have to finish with the first section of my reading material for the course I am auditing at the uni where I work at. It's about occult theories and practices between antiquity and renaissance. We have classes on Tuesdays and it started last week. It's a very interesting course but has some challenging readers concerning the language. It's not only that the whole course is in English (like everything at our uni), but also that at some parts it's a highly philosophical text, sometimes written in old style (like Plato's discussions and such). So it's a real challenge to get it. Luckilly the professor can explain things quite well. So we'll see how the course will evolve by the end of the semester. If it will be interesting enough, I'll register for the Spring Semester as well.
So today I finish cleaning up the flat and then jump into the reading stuff.
Tomorrow I won't have time for reading as I will go and visit DJH's training in Butokugan, and if everything goes well, RI, my buddy whose dojo I train at now comes with me.
I've been to Butokugan in December (or November), when we consecrated the venue.
It's a really impressing complex built for Budo trainings and events. Next time I'm there I'll take pictures. It's a really wonderful and unique place. Too bad their website does not work at the moment.
So we're going to beat up each other there a bit and probably have some fun as well :-).
Sooo, time to go and cook some yummy lunch and clean up the flat.
I'll write about the training on Tuesday sometime.
