... able to observe Kyudo (Japanese Archery). My cousin's son, Masafumi has been practicing this form of Bushido (Way of the Samurai warrior) for a few years now and has become quite good at it.

I went to Obihiro today to pick up my drivers license. Supposedly I had been approved to get a Japanese Drivers License after I sent in my 'official transcripts' from university. They were really my unofficial ones, I just put white out over the 'un' part and faxed them in. Gotta do what you gotta do right! Nothing like cheating the system.
