    [__ Prayer __] No hope... Faith is slipping.....

    Hey; I'm going to try to keep this short. If you're really concerned about where this is leading and your ability to support yourself, ever considered teaching English overseas? There's lots of employment opportunities, and it's a great learning experience. (I know my boss will be looking...

    Martial Arts

    Hey again jasoncran; No offense taken. I agree that our union does not nessisarily give us a good grounding for actual fights, but I believe that this comes more from our "family friendly"-ness and preparation for scoring points in tournaments than from over emphasising the Katas. (eg...

    Jason; banned for wishing death upon my students/friends! :lol (Though lest I be hypocritical, I've "strangeled" a few of them myself! - little brats!)

    banned for zen quotes without doing kata first 'he that knows, doesnt speak." and "he that speaks doesnt know" and total ignorance of lock and roll. Haha, ouch! Yes, you are correct jasoncran - you're all banned again for making this thread interesting enough that I read it through when I...

    Martial Arts

    Hello, and hopefully you are doing well; Yes, I've heard tell of the Phillipinos/nas and their stick fighting. Haven't really seen it yet it however. Heian Shodan is first, but you're close - 2nd. Must have been a while? I'm second purple, which in our union translates to pretty much smack...

    Do you think it is possible?

    Re: "Do you think it is possible?" & "Prayer Please" Hey Ninja250; I'll reply to this post and your "Prayer Please" one here. (I'm assuming it's the same girl...) Perhaps she is the one, but for the time I believe you've made the right choice. I wouldn't advise trusting your emotions in...

    How to Deal With Being Single

    Hurro! As a fellow single-person I agree, yeah, it can be tough... Two things I've come across that might be of help to you; 1) This advice is from a Muslim lecture I attended, but I think this advice is pretty sound for all of us. "Find your soul, then find your soulmate." If you...
