Have u got the Kung Fu

So i joined the melbourne university kung fu club aka Barry Pang Kung Fu school.

YES I JOINED. =)

oh well.. the style is called Wing Chun and Bruce Lee is one of the people who practice it.

extra info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_chun

and yea if u dont know, according to Barry Pang 01.04.2008 @ ard 2200 hrs

" Bruce Lee, that guy has no Kung Fu. How can u tell, u just look at his butt"

yes HIS BUTT.

on the fateful freezing april night, when u think u will be played an april fool's joke, i met the man himself.

yes, the one and only.
my "SHI FU"
my mentor
the incredible
the MAN's man

Grandmaster Barry Pang aka Mr. Kung Fu

and he came and asked us, so what is Kung Fu

immediately an image of Yang Guo with his right hand chopped off, using his sleeve and twisting the sword when Guo Fu tried to attack him. ( for all the martial arts novel lovers out there).

i tink that is Kung Fu.

then someone said: Kung Fu is hard work

so i imagined a shaolin monk getting punished for not doing smth and standing on his finger for 12 hours non stop or hitting his head against a wall ( aka tie tou gong)

then some one said " its the mastery of a skill"
so i imagined this young sneaky looking bugger tryin to steal his master's secret manual (antagonist of many kung fu shows). and later realizing all he got was a book entitled "dance of the river bear" 

and so.....
20 minutes and 5000 words later, he got to the main point.

Kung fu is smth that cannot be seen, but ur opponent will know its there.

so i imagined the 18 dragon slaying palms ( aka Xiang Long Shi Ba Zhang) and how using ur internal energy, ur opponent will fly thru the air and vomit blood. and later u go heal him. =)  using the same "qi"

and my thoughts were interrupted by a loud *SMACK*

and i looked up at Shi Fu Barry Pang ( who i hope does not read this )

if u do, i still love you... and  u rock... *peace sign*

anyways coming back...

yea, he had his hands on his butt. 

and another 5000 words later, he explained that REAL kung fu is in the practice of a basic stance. keep doing it, generate enough power in your stance and u will prevail!

and so in training that stance, u will have, a according to shifu and grand shifu, the quads of he-man and the butt of... hmmm... a nice butt... sculpted, if u will.

and so, a person with REAL KUNG FU will have,

the butt to die for
steel like, 
macham reinforced concrete liddat.

and if u are wondering, no i did not stare at it or tried to imagine.

and as proof he had our 3 instructors push him and yes, he balanced with one leg. he did not move an inch

and he literally made one instructor the "butt" of the jokes
pun intended.

he kept showing us how strong he was at his expense. sigh. kinda feel bad for him..

then i rmbed, first lesson, he kicked me and said "u in the brown shirt (1 SIR one), COMPLETELY WRONG" 

HAHA. no grudges i swear =) and yea, i was completely wrong. haha.

and to my horror, Barry Pang's shifu used to demonstrate how good his "kung fu" (aka butt) was by asking a particular student to feel it. yes the same one everytime..

hmmm...

so nxt i imagined at the end of the year, if barry pang ever says, " Lawrence, can i see ur kung fu? "

hmmm, i don wanna be caught with my pants down ( pun intended) 
=)
