Okay i only just admitted this to a copuple of friends the other day, its pretty deep..
So i used to work in the garden centre, on my first day my boss told me to take the watering can and water the flowers, when i asked where i could fill it up he replied, 'just over there round the back.' So i went round and found this big tower with a lever that conected to a pipe, this was obviosly the pipe he had been talking about, but nay! As i turned the lever the smell of petrol filled my nostrels. So i didnt think much of it at the time, i just carried on round and found the hose, filling up my watering can with the water and washing it out, i then went and watered the flowers. Pretending that i did not notice the thin line of petrol flotating at the top of the water.
The next week i came back for my next shift, and my boss asked me to water the flowers again that were 'wilting like ****' so i went to the right tap and filled up the can. I then went back to the flowers, to see that they were all dead and rippled accros the petels. There was also a destinct smell of petrol around!! I felt so bad!
Glad i got that off my chest!

Haha, I used to work at a garden center, but only poored petrol on my boss.
Anyway, here is my confession. Please note that this was quite a long time ago and by this point I have mostly recovered, though I will carry some mental scars forever.
I did Go-Kan-Ryu for four years.
I am mostly over it now though.

Four years? Damn. You must have made it to at least 8th Dan.

I havn't actually finished my confession, not long before I left I became...national champion.
Surprised at my success then I realised it was only because most of the decent fighters had left for other styles. So I followed suit, best move I ever made. I went back again a few years ago to watch the national tourny, as I had a mate that was still hanging in there. He became national champion. Then he left for another style. This is called 'talent-drain', and is one of reasons why GKR sucks so much: the good fighters leave, so they never become instructors, so sucky fighters become instructors and the pattern continues.
My last confession: When I first started GKR (I was 11 years old with very little MA experience), I remember one lesson where we did jumping, flying blocks. And for just that one lesson, I totally bought into it.

OK, well I can't laugh at Devoken without confessing one of my own. I used to do Kateda. (Now called Kixa, I believe.)
I was 14 at the time, did it for 6 months, and was stupid* enough to accept a black belt from them.
*Yes, even a 14 year old should have known better! What can I say? I'm sorry.
