When the school year was ending I got to take a field trip to my new school, it is named M.I.S. When I was at the school I felt excited to see my old friends and make new one. Plus it carries responsibilities because you have to take care of your own laptop. I also learned when you are in 6th grade you can sign up for basketball. I'm excited for that! I also got to see what pilots wore back on the day and it was pretty cool. Last year in 3rd grade I learned a lot about laptops so I'm good for 4th grade. I'm really looking forward to meeting new friend and having another good 3 year at M.I.S.

I know that the Kukkiwon Cup has past but I want to tell you what I learned. One thing is to block. The reason is so when my opponent kicks and I block he will not get a point. I also learned to do your best and never give up. After I sparred I watched my instructors spar. Watching them spar inspired me to give it my all. I also made friends on the way, their names are Ava and Sam. They supported me while I sparred, they are honorable friends. My experience at the Kukkiwon Cup was a good one because I learned a lot of things about sparring and about the Korean culture.
