Hi.....Again

So after more than a year without any posts, here I am again^^.
Alot hase changed since then. I've finished my Abitur and moved to Hamburg to study Korean Studies. Because of that I also went to Korea for a month (you can read about my trip here: http://moainkorea.blogspot.de/, sry but it's german only).
In addition to that i started practicing Taekgyeon thi February and am now officially a 3rd Poom.
Unfortunately I still can't realy play Baduk and I don't think that will change any time soon, after my last tournament I now have a 5k rating.................

Jikji

Today I started reading the Jikji (白雲和尙抄錄佛祖直指心體要節/백운화상초록불조직지심체요절) a collection of Buddhist texts and teachings of Baegun(a Korean Buddhist monk).

Let's see what influence this book has on my Baduk^^

The first path

I'm no a coauthor of adoreme's Blog, check it out.

Bass

Zurzeit üb ich halbwegs viel Bass(die letzten Tage so 2-4 Stunden täglich), und hier mal mein Trainingsprogramm für eine Einheit(1 Stunde):

15 Minuten Training für die linke Hand:

G|---------------------------------|-------------------------5---6---|-3---4---------------------------|
D|---------------------------------|---------5---6---3---4-----------|---------5---6---3---4-----------|
A|-------------------------5---6---|-3---4---------------------------|-------------------------5---6---|
E|---------5---6---3---4-----------|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
B|-3---4---------------------------|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|


G|---------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------|
A|-3---4---------------------------|
E|---------5---6---3---4-----------|
B|-------------------------5---6---|

Dieses Muster einfach an verschiedenen Stellen vom Hals spielen und das Tempo dabei variieren, alternativ:

G|-6--7--6-----------------------------------------|
D|----------9--7--6-----6--7--9--7--6-----6--7--9--|
A|-------------------9-----------------9-----------|
E|-------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------|

10 Minuten Geschwindigkeitstraining
Relativ leichte Songs bei erhöhter Geschwindigkeit(zB. Faint mit 270 BPM)

15 Minuten Technik
Harmonics, Tonleitern, Akkorde, Tapping, Slappen usw.

20 Minuten Anspruchsvollere Songs

New Year..............well a bit late^^

Well my last post was quite some time ago and a lot of things happened:
1.) I got a new 5-string bass and im practicing some songs by 3 now.
2.) I lost my ~ on KGS.
3.) I wrote a book review  about the books im studying right now.
4.) I started learning for the Abitur which will start on March 18th.
5.) I'm improving my SSB skills.
 

I hope that I will write more often now but I don't know if i really will ;)

Some other games I enjoy to play

Baduk may be the best game mankind has invented, but there are many other great games out there, too.
Here are some games you might also enjoy:

Changgi 
Changgi is a Korean variant of the Chinese Xiangqi.

Makruk
Makruk is the chess played in Thailand and Cambodia. It tends to have a very defensive opening followed by a agressive middle- and endgame (atleast it was like that when I played it).

Omok
5 in a row. Sounds simple but it can be very interresting to play.

Sunjang Baduk
An old korean way of playing Baduk.

Teachinggame VS Kim Sungrae

Today I finally got my chance to play Kim Sungrae. I went for a 6 HC game and resigned after 149 moves of fighting.
I liked the game but maybe it would have been a good idea to play calmer moves and not to begin an all out fight within 40 moves.
