Well i tell you what are my hobbies.
My hobbies are all the things that i didn't manage to make them as my job.
I play music and i spent many hours on my acoustic.But i'm not musician even if i wanted so much.
I keep on playing soccer but i'm not a pro goal keeper as it was of my very early dreams.
So i started thinking what are my hobbies and i realize my hobbies are the things i would like to do as a job.
I'm just in trade navy academy now to become a captain.And guess what! It wasn't my dream!!So long live hobbies!!

I'm at 2:nd kyu now (Blue belt), and I've practised for about 7 years. I'm not a hardcore judoka who practises 24/7 so my progress has been pretty slow. Although the belt doesn't really matter, unless you're up for the bigger competitions were 1:st kyu is required... And yeah, I compete at most of the local competitions. Although school takes up most of my time now and I'm finding it hard to train as much as I want. Its the only sport which have really attracted me.
Jigoro Kano Ftw!
So Spectrum, you're a Judoka too?

Yep, 2. kyu as well, but I'm taking my exam for the brown belt after easter holidays. I can handle the kata pretty well I think, so it should be okay. I do competition as well, and I'm in the national team for Luxembourg, which doesn't say much, but there you go. I also have a sponsor deal with Adidas, if I wear their logo on the back of my kimono and promote them in public, I get 50% off of all their products.

yeah, naga no kata is what I'm looking forward the least too. You must mean Judogi right? Not kimono...?

Interesting combo indeed. I imagine what it looks like:
Undead_warrior is holding a goldfish in his hand and pointing a gun to it.
"To shoot this fish or not to shot that fish?"
"That's the question."
"But my spiritual needs to shoot the fish surpass the ethic need to not shoot the fish but then..."
(an hour later)
"but instead"
(a day later)
"...maybe. Oh just blast philosophy.
I'm shooting them all!"
'bang' 'bang'
"Muahhahaa!"

Style, well Swedish Viking style I guess?
Msot people don't know that Judo isn't thought of as a self-defensive art. Jigoro Kano (The creater of Judo) wanted the sport to be, well just a sport. The fact that its based on Ju jutsu and therefore is pretty good to defend yourself with, is just a bonus.
Side note: Jigoro didn't want competitions at first either, he was convinced later.
And if you have a gun or knife... Well I can't dodge bullets but a knife is just an extension of the arm, so I should be able to handle it. Though I would prefer just running away...

Knife is only an extension of the arm, yes, but it is also much more than that.
One can severely hurt or kill you with a hand but it requires such force or skill that many don't have. But with a knife a ten year old kid can do the same amount of damage that a grown man can do without.
Besides of that a knife also has a psycholigical effect on both fighters. Don't underestimate it. If you haven't encountered anyone with a knife before it alone may be enough to "freeze" you.
Running is always a good and usually the best solution. Better keep that in mind.
EDIT: Judo isn't the best form of self-defense in any self-defense situation anyway. Like Adrious said it's a sport wrestling, like greco-roman or sambo.
