TA DA
nita nita surou san First let me explain the nita nita surou san. When I used to take Karate back in Canada, my sensi nicknamed me nita nita surou san which means smirk. Now everyone can associate a name with the face.
There you are! Like Shirley says, it's nice to put a face with your name. My 7 yr old son takes karate, but so far no nickname... for awhile it coulda been "quit-fooling-around" however you say that in Japanese... sometimes I call him tetsujin to tease him ;o)
Hi Sandy, Blogger letting me comment today! I love your new photo, it does make a difference to be able to see and recognise a face. Maybe I should have one too?
