Way to go. I haven't used one for several years now. Keep it up.

I'm giving you guys an update.
School has been killing me, so I haven't been posting.
I am doing great! I've shaved a few times, and I haven't
been cutting myself much, and the shave is very close.
I'm still having trouble with my neck, but now it's only the right side.
I can get the left perfectly.
Way to go! Keep at it. Soon, what was a decent shave will be a "bad" shave as your expectations change. Keep that in mind. Otherwise, you're off to a great start. I like how you've ignored the cartridge blade. That's what I did and I think it’s the best way to learn - if you have the patience and perseverance. ;)

When you cant wait to shave, you know its good!:tu
Yeah. I haven't even picked up the Gillette Fusion since I got my straight... Well, I did move it once, but that was it.
If it doesn't get done with the straight, it ain't gettin' done.
*Update*
I can shave pretty quickly now (about 15 minutes) with no cuts and a good shave.
I'm still having a lot of trouble with the sides of my neck. If I try to much there I just end up with cuts.
Other than that things are going great.
Very nice man!
Keep at it and have fun.
