I was just looking through some old pictures yesterday and I found a few pictures from Thuringa Cup, a tournament in Germany I participated in back in 2010. And guess who I recognized in the picture? A girl I currently train with at Tokai, Tomoka Yomogida! So apparently, as evidenced by these pictures, we both attended the same tournament. At that time of course, we didn't know each other. Who would have known I'd be training with her a few years later? The world really is a small place.
Here are two pictures that were taken in Germany:

See the Japanese girl in the front, with the gray pleated skirt?
That's Tomoka Yomogida, -48 kg division. |

And then here, you see her squeezed in the middle and you can see me
on the right side of the picture. |
