At least she returns when I return... though my story isn't nearly as sympathetic as hers.

Damn that's a big shame for me as Athena is possibly my favourite on the roster and the one I most wanted to meet. Shame.
I also thought that along with Serena she would be the one most likely to dethrone Melissa.

KANA ADDED TO SHIMMER 58-61 EVENTS!SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES is proud to announce the addition of "The World Famous" KANA to the SHIMMER 58-61 weekend of events, October 19th & 20th at the Berwyn Eagles Club in Berwyn, IL!  "The World Famous" KANAOne of the most skilled fighters on the planet, Kana has participated in of some of the most memorable bouts in SHIMMER's eight year history. Her SHIMMER 50 battle against Ayako Hamada earned 2012 Match of the Year honors from the SHIMMER fans. In addition to being one half of a formidable tag team duo with partner LuFisto, Kana's singles contests against the likes of Sara Del Rey, Cheerleader Melissa, Mercedes Martinez, Madison Eagles, and others have solidified her position as a major player within the SHIMMER ranks. Kana has appeared on every SHIMMER event since her arrival at SHIMMER 41, and will continue that trend during SHIMMER 58-61 weekend. Kana joins the following previously announced competitors for SHIMMER 58-61 weekend...  SHIMMER ChampionCHEERLEADER MELISSASHIMMER Original Cheerleader Melissa has the distinction of being the only wrestler to compete on all fifty-seven SHIMMER shows thus far. She began her second reign as SHIMMER Champion on April 6th of this year, dethroning Saraya Knight inside a steel cage in the main event of SHIMMER 53, to become the only woman to hold the SHIMMER Championship on two occasions.  SHIMMER Tag Team ChampionsKELLIE SKATER & TOMOKA NAKAGAWAThe "Global Green Gangsters" tag team of Kellie Skater & Tomoka Nakagawa, which has enjoyed success in both Japan as welll as the United States, captured the SHIMMER Tag Team Championships from "The Canadian Ninjas" Portia Perez & Nicole Matthews on April 14th of this year. The championship victory for "3G" was Skater's first in SHIMMER competition, and Nakagawa's second (the first being her SHIMMER Tag Team Championship reign with partner Daizee Haze).  MADISON EAGLESFormer SHIMMER Champion Madison Eagles made history during 2011 as the first wrestler to defend the title outside of the United States. After an impressive title reign which included successful defenses against Melissa, Ayumi Kurihara, MsChif, Ayako Hamada, Serena Deeb, Hiroyo Matsumoto and others, Eagles was forced onto the sidelines for the duration of 2012 with a severe knee injury. Madison returned to SHIMMER during April of this year and plowed through the competition, appearing to have not lost a step.  SHIMMER 58-61 will take place at the Berwyn Eagles Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL on Saturday & Sunday, October 19th & 20th, 2013. Bell time on Saturday, October 19th is 2pm. Bell time on Sunday, October 20th is 1pm. The events are suitable for all ages. Over half of the available tickets for the weekend's events have already been sold. Front row reserved seating is already completely sold out for the entire weekend. General admission tickets are still available, at a cost of $30 per full day of taping (two DVD volumes worth of live matches each day, so essentially $15 per DVD).

Highly recommend Pimsleur to get started. www.pimsleur.comIn just a few days you can have the basic greetings down. As for reading Japanese, that's a whole other beast. |

Though I don't know a word of Japanese, the Joshi for the most part know enough English for me to have a brief conversation with them. I've held my own with Kana and Hamada in the past, and as far as other Japanese wrestlers go, I've had words with both Akira Tozawa and Naruki Doi. Would be nice to learn a bit though to keep it going a bit longer.
