Day before the test!

I can't believe tomorrow is our test! I'm really excited but also nervous about it. We have been training for the past 3 months to get ready for it but it always seemed so far away. This has been a great journey and I can't wait to start the next chapter after the test.

July 2nd

I have been off with my journals and and physical requirments but I'm hoping that without classes for the next few days I will have enough time to catch up in my physical requirments. Today I helped out with the white to high yellow class then took the senior belt class. In the senior belt class we worked mostly on a Hap ki do form. I really enjoyed it. I'm really tired now and I have family coming in tomorrow so I'm ready to fall asleep.

Wednesday

Today I helped out with the 3:50 class and 5:45 class, I got leadership 1 and 2 credits. I took the 4:45 senior belt class. In the senior belt class it was just me and Aiden, a high red belt. He is testing Saturday for Bocho Dan so we spent most of the class making sure he was ready for the test. I still have 20 pushups and situps to do but as of right now I'm not sore. I think I'm gonna finish my pushups and situps then meditate for a little bit then go to bed. I can't wait for the weekend!

First day of Physical Requirements

Today was the first day that I did a full workout. I'm a little bit tired and its weird having to do a certain amount of pushups and situps. Today one of my masters, Master Justin Laloan, got back from a trip to New York. Also one of his students from New York came down for a tournament. He is a black belt and a really good martial artists from what I have seen. I'm hoping to pick up a few tricks from him. Mainly beginning to work on the 540 kick. I saw him do it today and it was really cool. Its good to have Master Justin back. It was different last week without him, just like its different when Master Burkhart or Master Thamn isn't around. I got my leadership credit today and I will get another tomorrow as well as a leadership 2 credit. We worked on...

1st journal!

Today I just stayed at home most of the day. In the evening I went to the driving range with my dad to work on my golf swing and that was very fun. I'm sore from the 5k and other physical requirements I did yesterday. I'm excited for the first day of class during the Black belt pre-cycle tomorrow.
