I've never really shown a bad side, but this is where it'll show.

I have my cellphone set up to alert me with breaking news.

7:12 this morning, it goes off:
United Airlines files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

For those of you that haven't followed me, or haven't really read my 100th comment below, my father flies for United Airlines. This would screw us a bit, you think?

So toss back some of that Christmas eggnog, people, for all of us just let the terrorists win. Whooo-hoooo! We cared too damn much about ourselves, that we were too ingorant of what the real problems were. A major airline declared the larget airline bancruptcy ever. So they won because we just didn't give a damn.

And what I have to say is: how is my family NOT a victim of September 11th? You give money to some 23-yr-old girl who worked in a coffee shop on the 42nd floor of the WTC, who lost her job because the toweres fell. She is able, but will never have to work again.

So where's OUR f%(#ing money?

I'll probably need to give up my apartment, and my cable modem first. So that means, thanks, I'm a Knight, but you won't see me again. $h1t, I might not even get to do my final semesters of college. We run a decent risk of not getting enough to keep our house.

So thanks, America. Merry Christmas to you too. This is EXACTLY what I wanted for the holidays. Hope the rest of you enjoy it.

Congratulations, Ulic! We don't know each other very well, but I've read your comments, and find I have a great respect for your maturity and insight. I'm not brown-nosing, just being honest. ;)

You'll make a great knight, IMO.

Ulic, you are the chosen one!! You will bring balance to the force and to the academy! You are just great!

I wish you anything you need in order to pass this trial and continue to serve the academy like you do. I will NEVER look down on you. It just is not possible. When you do make Knight, can I train under you for a while? I have been nominated for the knight trial myself but I need more training. So I would be very very grateful if you let me train with the great Ulic Belouve!
Your trial falls at 5am for me, but I will be there!

Good luck my friend and mentor, and may the force be with you!

OK, I am getting close to 100 comments (and I have something planned for that one), so I will make all this into one comment....if you asked me anything recently, it'll be in here...

*meditates for a moment*

Ok, for the Knight trials, I really want it to be a true trial. I want it to be honorable. The thing is, placing my humility aside, I am really liked here at the Academy. People like my attitude, from those on top to those on bottom. So I'm well-liked.

But am I skilled enough? I had one JAT say long ago that I was a shoe-in for Knight. I don't mean to insult him, but WHAT THE HELL DO YOU SAY THAT FOR?

Knight is not a shoe-in thing! It diminishes the meaning! And I say this so that I don't just "walk" into being a Knight. If I make Knight, I truly want to be carried there on a stretcher, because I gave everything I had to get there. And for those who want to rush to Knight, for the title and prestige, that's not what Knight is either!

I'm not in it for the title. I am in it for what is right, not for me, but the Academy. THEY, not I, think I would be good for this. It is through their consideration that I willfully decide to take this trial.

I will not be hurt by failure, but I will give it all I have. If that does not make it, then I need to gain more to give. To even begin to give so much, one really has to center themselves. I am here for service to others, which is what the Knight should be all about. This is what ALL your actions should be about. How does a certain action best serve others?

I know it may be hard to see sometimes, like it was hard for me to see why I needed to keep slicing Blade Knight in half when he couldn't get countering. How did this best serve others? Well, Blade Knight rocks at countering, worked hard on it. Maybe I had something to do with that, maybe not. But don't look at some rank or being some Padawan because it serves YOU best, or so YOU feel better about yourself. How does this serve someone else?

So I might succeed, so I might fail. But I'm taking this trial, so that it serves you. I feel my success or failure will serve the Academy, so it makes no true difference. This is what one must learn, that even being little, even being a constant failure, even in not accomplishing what you had planned, you can still be valuable. This is if you do it to serve others.

I doubt any of you will, but should I fail, don't look down on me. If I fail, this will maintain the integrity of a Knight being something truly special. I will work harder, and work for you all either way.

I don't plan on failing, but I also don't plan on passing. Confused? Well, I plan on serving you best. If that requires passing, great. If that requires failing, it's also good.


Now, to talk Padawans.

If you haven't picked up on my theme for service, then you really shouldn't bother asking to be my Padawan until then.

If you DO pick up on my themse for service, then you really shouldn't bother asking to be my Padawan until then.

Another confsion? And again, something else up my sleeve.

I serve all as best I can. I will teach when that best suits this service, and if I need to take a Padawan to best serve the greater good, then I will do so. But I will not take a Padawan because they ask me, and because I am a Knight. If the Padawan status is neccessary, you can bet I will take one.

That all being said, I hope you like this post. I'm pretty worn out, and I will explain why sometime later.

If I make Knight, I will place an important post. I hope all return to take a look at it.

But thank you all, and May The Force Be With You.

It's just a bunch of dueling for Knight. Basically, if you can dream it up, you might have to do it. So guess what, you have to be prepared for anything, like a Jedi Knight. Go figure. They really don't say what you will have to do, just what to be ready for. And like I said, if a JAT can dream it up, you best be ready for it.

Hard to train for, and you really just have to be able to deal with anything (this is up to and including 2 on 1 Full Force). I can help teach you, yes, but Knight isn't all about exceptional skills. It's about attitude as well.

I am a journakl slacker!

What I am actually doing is using my journal as the basis for a short story in one of my classes. So, I will end up adding more spice to my already existing entries. I will let you know once I have changed things, and you can go back and read things from the start again, only more exciting!

It's like Ulic's Journal version 1.2! Heh.
