Report on Owen
 

To those of you who didn't believe Owen is a 15 years old boy, well, he is. And I'm still alive after giving him a ride to my dojo. My sensei asked him to observed just for today and we'll get him started the week after because my sensei and a few of us are heading to the godo keiko at Kansas. So for now, that's all I can say. But besides that, I think he's a rather nice kid.

I'll let you ladies & gents know how he does the week after.

Have fun destroy the rest of the trolls

Mugu

Thanks for the update Mugu! Now to see what he does with the wonderful chance you've given him.

nice work, mugu. It take a lot to provide a positive experience for a teenager. Well, I wish him luck. I'll take him off my ignore list.

thank you. next time i go i will hopefully get a shinai. kendo looks really cool and i cant wait to learn

Hopefully it will be interesting to you. Compare to a lot of people you are lucky to start at such young age.

I hope all you doubters are ashamed of yourselves, you cynical pricks.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/devious.gifhttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/wink2.gif

my neighbors to the right of me just moved out a couple days ago, so ill have new new neighbors by the end of the week! hopefully they will like my dog. oh another thing, i went down to a restaurant a few blocks away. i talked to the manager, and he said it should be possible to get a job working there by the end of summer!

Thanks to Owen for not being a 30-yr-old kidnapper, sex offender and murderer... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

He is only 15, he's got time yethttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo.../confused2.gifhttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/eek.gif

Maybe I should've said 'thanks in advance'... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

You never get a second chance to make a first impression.

I still don't believe it.

it really isnt if you just apply yourself. going to talk to sifu orr tomorrow about kendo... i hope he doesnt a. kick me out, or b. secretly be angry and make my kf miserable. i suspect he will though

If he does he's likely to be a tool... Or have some stupid Tool-like Prejudice.. Either way if he reacts as badly as you think he doesn't deserve your respect.

May this "Seafood" of yours will get mad and report you to his superiors.
Then you have to deal with the Head of the World Soke Grandmaster uber kick-butt ring of death council.

He's scary...

Wow two life lesion in one week.
1) You can't change first impression so always make them count.
2) Friends who like you just because you sing their song and not necsary the best people to have a friends

no!!! not the patches!!! anything but the patches!!! please have mercy! |P

Which is a shame really 'cos more often than not first impressions are usually wrong.


Oh and you could get a second chance to make a first impression if the person you meet for the first time has severe memory retention deficit and then you get to make a first impression lots of times.

OR
if you experience Groundhog Day

OR
if you meet a blind person and are good at doing different accentshttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/eek.gif
