Sifu requires each of us to keep a Wing Chun training journal. In fact, when you evaluate for a sash, he reviews the journal and makes his comments and corrections (does not apply to me) within those pages. Sometimes I make entries even when I don't go to class. Here is my last entry to help you along:
"8/1/11. Opening day of new Chattanooga Cup Cakes location so too busy to make it to class. Nelson's slight outward energy will go unpunished because I am not there to disengage his misdirected energy. Michael's over raised traps and slightly forward leaning posture will not be exploited in my absence (though Michael will likely skip class just like me anyways...). John Powell can relax that since I missed my delay in surpassing him to Black Sash is slightly delayed. Jerry did not have to worry about getting a black eye because I am gone (though I am sure somebody else may take my place with that one.) All in all, the guilt I feel in allowing my junior classmates to continue to flounder in their mistakes unpunished do to my absence is great -- but such is the demands of man in the Cup Cake business."
