Janus,

Thank you very much for all the time and effort you put into the JA.
You have been a great teacher to the Students and your classes will be missed.

Your place with all the past greats of the Jedi Academy is well met as your name goes into the Hall of Fame.

Once again, thanks man - you've been a superstar. :)

Emmm Sorry Janus for not showing up for the final. But i'd sure like to get it out of the world one.
Really would be nice to get on the more advanced classes. But anyway sorry about all fuss :D

Hey man. I hope you are doing well. I have been insanely busy on the weekends. I've must be one of the worst padawans ever and I'm afraid it does not look like it will improve. Between Family needs, soccer season coming up and my "honey-do's" I’m not sure I will be able to make it to a Saturday lesson anytime soon. Sry man. When this stuff settles, I'll be sure to log in and check it out. In the mean time, if you need my padawan roster spot for someone a little more active, please let me know.

later man, Jerry

Hi Janus, Sorry you wasn't available for class today. Damien showed up and I ran him through the stuff he didn't know. He was hoping to test out for the exam. I said you may let him. He knows the stuff, but it's upto you my friend :) I spent over an hour with him though, duelling an stuff.

The only other person to show up was Starnos, a new guy from Texas, seems interested in learning all styles. May see him in class next weekend :)

Hope you had a good weekend my friend, see you next Saturday ;)

Hey, Janus I was really bored tonight while drinking my tea and relatively energetic for it being midnight so I decided to type up a basic overview of today's class based on notes I took during it. If you've yet to do so, just catch me on MSN and I'll send you the file if you wish to check it out.

Thanks for the check-up. Easter went well. I hope yours was nice.

Life has been very busy. For the last two weeks I have been unable to sit down and dedicate any time to gaming. Not to say I have not played but I have not been able to play without interuption. I would hate to inconvience a class with interuptions every few mins. I don't want to be that guy. Well anyways, its beginning to slow down for me and i hope to be back in classes in the next week. Ski season is just about over and If the family is okay with it, I will be signing up for the Saturday class and droping the Wednesday class. Should make it easier for everyone. I just hope I have not grown too soft.

Later bro, Jerry

No worries about the edit Janus. I took something out cos I misunderstood what you said in your first post. I thought you didn't want me at the Beginners class, on re-reading it I realised that isn't what you said.

As for work my friend, I have thought long and hard about whether it's the job I want to be in. The answer was yes, I really like the job, driving all over the place I'm my own boss so to speak. No one from work bothers me when I'm out on the road, so it's great. The problem is I'm not one to take the p^&% out of my employers, so I do the job by the book. This means that I get the job done quite quickly and lose out on the over time :) Summer is better, the caretakers at the schools stay longer, and I can work later, without faking work hours, so roll on Summer :D

Girlfriend? We sort of finished last weekend because she keeps messing me about. But I think she realised what she had lost and contacted me at great length. Hopefully it's sorted, but only time will tell.

I've come to realise that I will never be an uber anything as far as the game goes. The theory side I've never had a problem with. I listen, learn and digest all information given to me. What I don't understand, I ask about. The practical side however is beyond me. I went to the fort earlier and practiced left and right swings with the dance. I noticed that 90% of rights hit the target, but only about 30%-40% lefts hit the target. I can't work out why though. I can see how it's not working, but don't know how to correct it.

But now I'm rambling :) so I'll leave it at that. I'll get over it though, no doubt.

Hi Janus. Things are pretty crappy at the moment. I do nothing but shell out money I haven't got on my car, and now, my bike. My own fault, but I'm getting sick of it. I'm not earning any money at work (no overtime etc.) and it's starting to worry me now.

My mind is some place else lately, I can't play the game. And I'm getting very frustrated and annoyed. I know all the theory, you're a very good teacher, but I can't put it into practice. I feel like giving up to be honest, because I only enjoy the classes now, and not the game itself. I'd much rather go on an empty sever and just practice the moves, and try to get the range set in my head. But even that isn't working lately.

Sorry you got all that, my head is a bit screwed at the moment :(

Hey man, no worries about the reply delay :) Glad to hear you're doing well. I'm doing good over here, if you exclude the mountain of work I'm currently buried under! Oh well :P I shall survive :D

Take care.
