Sensei said I should take the 3rd Kyu test in May. So I guess I'm taking the 3rd Kyu test in May.
The problem is, 3rd Kyu implies you know some stuff. Not all, by any means, and you are sure not a black belt (shodan), but still you should be able to help out new students more and generally know the ropes.
BUT, after three years I now really know I'm just a beginner. I fear if I tell somebody at a practice that I'm 3rd kyu they may think I actually know something. It's like putting on airs.
BUT, if Sensei says I should take the 3rd kyu test, I guess I will take the 3rd Kyu test.
Here is the list:

We'll get together next week Tuesday or Thursday?, and you can run through the techniques with me if you wish. The trick will be doing it the Aikikai way -- not the Tomiki way! But who knows -- Sensei may let us some of Charlie's techniques.
