If your dead set on using manual I'd start by practicing on objects that don't move and bracket your shots.

I Started off using Aperture mode with my camera. I also took note of what my settings were on my camera for each picture I took (ISO, Aperture, Shutter speed). It help me out a lot when I went to manual. What throws me off is when I introduce flash into my photography. I have no clue in what settings to use in manual so I switch to aperture priority. I have the 430EX Speedlite TTL and it does everything for me, Just turn it on. But I would love to learn how to work the flash so it doesn't over power everything.
Here is one I took of a plane at night.
that was in Aperture priority. tried to do the same thing in manual and I couldn't do it.
