Diary of an Alleged Jedi/2

Entry number: 2

Entry mode: typed

Seven tries, seven failures. I'm getting frustrated. This time, I had a firm grasp of his arm; he wasn't going anywhere. But then my robe got stuck as I was trying to find the cuffs, and he took the opportunity to punch a button on my speeder and send it&mdash;with me still attached&mdash;flying over a ledge. I'm still kicking myself for losing the cuffs. Only the intervention of some Jedi named "Squint" saved me from falling all the way to the Undercity.

Turns out this "Squint" was looking for Jedi to join the war against the Mandalorians. He definitely didn't care for my Masters' disdain for the war or their focus on the long-gone Sith. I agree with him on that. What puzzled me was his prediction that I would be somehow an important figure; I think he meant in the war. I think he was trying to claim he had a Force vision, but I think it's more likely he was so high on spice he was hallucinating. I can't imagine being a major player in any galactic event. In all likelihood, I'll never amount to anything and just end up another Jedi washout. Of course, if that happens, I could very well end up drafted into the war, which would be why I'm still trying to do everything I can to not wash out, even though it's probably futile at this point.

At any rate, I have a major test coming up. We're going to the rogue moon, where we'll have to navigate through the meteors with only the Force. Doesn't sound very fun, but it's probably my last shot at Knighthood. Not that I ever had a realistic shot at that anyway.
