Had work this morning, then got packed up to head to Greenville for instructor's camp. Usually we take the motor home, but there was a leak in the water tank, so we decided to stay at a hotel. Also that meant I don't get an infinite amount of leg room since we got to take the car.
Today I had work at the ninja gym, then at the dojang. For ninja, we had evaluations where we test the students strength in exercises like push ups and pull ups. For taekwondo class tonight we were focusing on self defenses and I had my higher belts work on some of their jumping kicks. I've learned that they need more work on those so I'm dedicating a focus to have those kicks improved.
The main thing for me today was my exam. I'm doing alright in my class, but its kind of confusing for me. I took my second exam of the class and I felt okay about it. Had nothing else really going on so the rest of my day was pretty much a rest and relax time.
This morning we had sparring, junior, and senior tiger classes. After sparring a couple of the candidates and I decided to have fun with the band on our pull up bar. We attached two bands to it so our pull ups looked effortless. We also did the same for push ups and did jump push ups which looked like we were flying for a second. We have the bands to help those who are developing their pull up strength but we also use it to mess around a little like today. After classes I helped my dad clean out one of our sheds that was packed with furniture and boxes. He's been meaning to clean it out and today was a good day for it.
On Fridays we just have black belt class and sparring. Before and after the classes we helped the candidates find their answers to the written test coming up. March feels really close and that means the end of this spring cycle. Making sure that I'm on track and not lagging behind. In class we focused on poomsae memorization and kicking conditioning.
In the evening I went to work at the ninja gym. I haven't been back to work for a couple of weeks since I needed to help at the dojang with my dad being gone. I missed the gym and the students there, even though they frustrate me sometimes. Afterwards I had my class to teach and also ended up teaching adult class since there was pmaa testing going on in our dojang. I rarely ever teach the adults and I like teaching them. Its a smaller class and they all catch on easily so Master Foster likes to have them practice some advanced drills no matter their belt.
After classes two of our candidates Sid and Brayden wanted to work on their creative form. We did a mentor session where they showed me what ideas they wanted to implement in their form and I would give suggestions if they needed it. They ended up with a good start and some good ideas on what types of things they want to put in the form and it was a lot of fun. I told them to go home and practice what they have and spend some time adding a little more to it.
My dad flew home from California today. He came straight to the dojang from the airport and taught our adult class. I'm not surprised at all knowing him even though he had a full day of flying. Jakhye taught our first junior tigers class today and I taught the second.
With the days getting warmer I made sure to spend a good amount of time outside today. Running feels so much better now that its not so cold. For classes I taught one of the junior tigers and my brother taught the other. They were both good classes and I like the change. I'm definitely more comfortable teaching senior tigers but junior tigers are a lot of fun too.
Today was pretty basic. I had the whole day to myself with nothing planned so requirements were easy to finish. Not enjoying the rain as it gets pretty muddy outside and I almost slipped a couple times. This weekend has felt weird because my dad is in California visiting my grandparents the environment at home has felt different. Also with the dojang too since Master Knight taught the senior tigers on Saturday which my dad usually teaches.
Tonight it was just Trent and I running the dojang. We had black belt class, sparring, and mentor sessions. Everything went great as I focused mainly on weapon forms, rolls, and falls. At this point in the cycle, I'm trying to make sure everyone of the candidates has learned all the forms and self defenses required for them. It's a lot to go through but they're doing a good job with practicing them.
This morning we worked a lot on poomsaes with Master Evins at training. I enjoyed it as we practiced the poomsaes that is higher than what I've learned which is fun. I like learning them especially the weapons forms. My dad left today to California so visit my grandparents so we had Jakhye and Avery teach the two junior tigers class today. They did well, they don't have a lot of practice teaching yet but their doing a good job.
Didn't have too much happen today. Learned a little more in my class today to prepare for assignments coming up, then went over to the dojang. My brother and I both got there early to eat lunch since we both picked up food on the way there. I liked high belt class, in the beginning Master Foster had us practice jump rolls over a partner which we don't do a lot of. Afterwards a bunch of the students started playing soccer until we had to leave.
I really hope the days stay like this for a while. Today felt great. I loved the warm sunny day today and enjoyed spending more time outside. I kept one window open while I did my homework. I'm finally getting a decent grasp on my class of accounting. It was pretty confusing at first but I've been practicing and got much better. Got school tomorrow after three weeks of being virtual.
For lunch today my dad and I went to the Gibson Mill and ate at the depot deli which is inside of it. The sandwiches are great and its one of our favorite lunch places. Afterwards we went over to the dojang for classes. I take the high belt class as my black belt class there. Its fun as I get to be with all the other students and participate with them.
I never have much going on during Sundays. I let myself sleep in a little later today which felt good. Though usually I try to practice not to wake up late to form a good sleeping pattern for myself. With not much going on the day felt longer than others. But I got plenty of time to get any homework or requirements in with a lot of time to spare.
Had classes in the morning which are always great. Taught sparring class and helped out with the junior tigers and family class. In the evening I got to teach a session at junior instructors camp. I've never done that before and it was a lot of fun. I had rolls and falls and dynamic kicks as my focus for the session. All the students were filled with energy and I loved helping out with the event.
Had work this morning and it was freezing. Temperature was said to be 24 degrees and everything was frozen. Luckily it was way warmer later in the day and felt great. I got to the dojang early today to eat lunch and do requirements. It feels better there because of the equipment and space versus practicing in my room. Classes went well tonight, we had black belt and sparring class. Master Knight lead black belt class and I lead sparring class.
Thursdays are usually a busy schedule for me. I got work at 11am to 1pm, then I have some time to eat before leaving to work at 4:30 at the dojang. The cycle takes up some time now and my routine schedule has been a little thrown off. Today felt extra busy but honestly I enjoy filling in some of the time gaps. Instead of wasting time on my phone or something I do my run or practice.
I had my first exam today for the semester. Accounting is a class that I've found it hard if learn if you don't spend time practicing it. There's formats for certain things that you have to memorize and you have to know which category certain actions fall under. With the snow and not being in class for about two weeks, I wasn't very happy to take it, but I did alright. We had practice problems we could use online to help us with concepts as a lot of this takes practice to learn. Overall I like the class and the teacher has been very helpful so not much problems with it.
I'm tired of all this snow and cold. I love it for a bit but its been too long. Its getting warmer and feeling much better, but I'm ready to see grass again instead of getting my socks wet everytime I go outside. I do like seeing the sun again and the roads are good now. Were finally back to regular schedule at the dojang and it feels good. Having testing last week and this weather felt really weird so hopefully were done with that for now.
I've decided to start the diet challenge today. I chose to only eat food that isn't processed for the challenge. Not sure what to expect but I know that staying away from food that was made artificially is going to help my body a lot. We only had three classes today so none of our families have to drive home late. The roads are still bad and many areas are not safe to go fast on. I've got to drive tomorrow to work so not really looking forward to it.
Second day of snow went okay. I'm kind of done with the cold and looking forward to spring already. As I expected school is virtual tomorrow so I won't have to drive anywhere. I'm not fully comfortable with driving in these road conditions but at the same time I do find it fun. Luckily we got the roads in our neighborhood cleared out faster than last week since its not icy and compact.
This is the best snow day I have ever seen. I'm so glad its good snow and not ice. I slipped and fell on my butt within five minutes of being outside in it. Luckily I didn't have anywhere to go so no driving in the snow for me. Maybe it would be fun to drive around the neighborhood and test the traction. Hopefully my school opens back up early next week. I only have class on Mondays and Wednesdays so I haven't been back and I need to. Our cat and dog hated being outside today. The dog is a toy poodle who is slightly less than a foot tall, and my brother took her outside and put her in the snow to see what would happen. All you could see was her head poking out and she ran back inside after that. I think it'll be done snowing tomorrow...
I guess today will be the last day of classes for the week. With the snow expected tonight no classes tomorrow. I hope its good snow and not the icy stuff we got last week. Also I hope everything doesn't get shutdown for very long. I haven't been to school in two weeks now and its really unhelpful with understanding my work. Mainly I'm just excited for tomorrow to see what happens I want to figure out something fun to do with the snow instead of just sit inside.
This morning I went to training with the other masters and instructors. We covered some of the higher belt poomsaes that I have not practiced before and third dan self defense. I needed to really work on my self defense and make sure how to do it, so it helped me tremendously. Now I need to add that to the self defense practice daily. I've learned it before but haven't practiced it enough to really memorize it. Also had senior tigers and adult testing which went well tonight.
Today and tomorrow we have testing going on. Junior tigers today and senior tigers on up tomorrow. Testing today is pretty simple since there's no self defenses and its mainly working on basics. All the students performed well and the testing was great. No school for me today since the college is staying closed. Honestly I don't think its necessary, the roads seem fine now. Also I've seen the possibility of having more snow on Saturday and am kind of tired of it. I'll take some good snow but I don't want any more ice.
With the weather getting colder our neighborhood road froze over again. Since its a gravel road it didn't get any treatment so it was extra icy today. I almost slipped multiple times and practiced sliding while running. We had regular classes tonight which I enjoy especially since I always teach on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
I had no work or school today in the morning because of the frozen roads which I was glad for. Got to enjoy another day with snow and work on some school work. We didn't have classes today but we did open our dojang for an hour and a half inviting anyone to show up to train. We ended up having about twenty students show up to work on curriculum, mainly because testing is this week on Wednesday and Thursday.
I didn't actually expect any snow today and was surprised when I got up. The peopel who watch the weather are never right about snow and I remember last year they had mutiple predictions that were wrong. After I got up I walked across the yard in the snow and almost slipped right away. The backyard is not flat at all and I did end up falling later on in the afternoon walking across it again. Its Sunday so I don't have anything planned at all for today.
Saturday classes are my favorite out of the week. We have our sparring, junior tiger, and family class. Usually we get big classes for all three and I like having them earlier in the day instead of later. After sparring our older students like to hang out in our training room and like to play games and hang out during the junior tiger class. For junior tigers we make an obstacle course for them to go through and its always fun to watch. Right now got some sleet falling outside and its freezing, hopefully it doesn't get too bad and some snow would be great.
A couple days ago I pulled a muscle in my back. I'm not really sure how I did it, I don't do heavy lifting and mainly do body weight workouts so I'm pretty confused on how it happened. Its been two days and it feels so much better. I'm appreciating the weather today as I know its planning on getting worse over the weekend. Hopefully we get snow, that would be fun.
This week is the start of my spring semester for school. I'm currently taking an accounting class and so far it doesn't look too bad. I'm enrolled at Rowan Cabarrus Community College and I've had great teachers throughout all my semesters. The last semester in the fall, my teacher bought the whole class Chick-fil-A. This semester seems to be no different with a good teacher. Working on staying consistent with the cycle and getting a rhythm created so it doesn't feel too tedious.
After school my dad and I started to finish up our essays. I have already started the five kwans which is going to take me a while since it is a five page essay. But we are still doing well through this cycle.
Today I did my empathy training so I was mute for twelve hours. After one hour I felt like I could survive the whole day but after the second one, I just wanted to start talking. Well, all I can say is that I got it done. So now I complete another essay.
Today was a homeschool day so we got to sleep in. Usually, homeschool days are short but this one went really long. When I finally got done it was about 4:00 in the evening so I was not happy. I wish I could redo this entire day which would have helped me a lot better.
Tonight my soccer practice was canceled so I went to take class instead. I helped out in the family class to get a Leadership 1 because I am so low on them. For Black Belt Class we worked on the self defenses and poomsaes that we needed to know. It was a different night that helped me so I can keep myself going.
Today was my friend Nolan's birthday. He had his party this weekend but we celebrated it again today. His party was really fun and we stayed up late. For his birthday we first went to Sports Connection and then went to his house. We played multiple of games there and he had a basketball game going on a screen in his yard. It went really well celebrating his birthday twice and I think he enjoyed it too.
Yesterday we had the physical test which was pretty tough. Today after I had breakfast I went straight to requirements. I did all of them at once which made me really tired. Then, later I had a soccer game which made me more tired. I hope I get some rest tomorrow because I will probably need it.
Today we had to prepare for tomorrow so we would pass the test. We finished up our journals first, then we studied the test a lot so we would get a good grade. I hope that my dad and I pass it because we did a lot of studying and writing today.
Today for English class we are learning about poetry. For our project we have to pick out an event that has happened in our country and write different poems about it. Today we wrote a poem to help us figure out how write one. In Science we are studying about atoms and we use balls and we connect them to form different types of substances. Me and another kid in my group made a lot of different things with them. It was pretty fun getting to use them. But other than those things my day was normal and not much exciting things happened.
Today our grading guy was starting to put his machines out because he is going to dig us a pool. For his machines he has an excavator, a dump truck, and some other machines that help him get the job done. This is the second project he is doing for us and it is going to require some big machines. It takes him some time but he can get the job done, even with one person. I can't wait to see the pool in our backyard.
Today we had PE and our teacher is Mrs. Ford who is also in my black belt class. We warmed up first and then started with games. We played bowling from a far distance outside. It was windy and we used dodge balls as bowling balls so the balls rolled off the path sometimes. They missed the two pins a lot so each round we got closer and closer to the bowling pins. The class was really fun and I can not wait to do it next week.
Today during Nature Study class at school we got to go deep into the woods. It was cool and there were a lot of branches and trees that were dead. We came across a lot of rivers too so we had to jump over them. My teacher said that we will someday come back in the woods so that I am looking forward to that.
Today after we cut down trees we burned them. The fire went on for a while and we kept supplying it with wood. During it burning our neighbor cut down another tree which was very dead. That was added to the fire and so was some pieces of cardboard. I also helped my dad drive a tractor to a pile to pick up logs of wood. Our neighbors were also burning wood that kept on going through the evening so this day has been filled with fires burning everywhere.
Today from the the evening to the night our neighbors had a cookout and invited us to it. They made chicken wings and corn on the cob. I had thirteen wings and two cobs of corn so my stomach was satisfied. After that we played ping pong and other games and soon had to go to bed to rest after a good night.
Ever since I got sick I have been sick I have never felt like that I have been getting better. I actually feel a little worse. My dad has tried a few things to help me but the next day I don't feel much better. Well, I hope I get done with it before the cycle is over if I am going to get through.
Today I was very sick so I had to skip school. My sickness was terrible so I didn't feel right for entire day. I wish I could make myself better but I can't get rid of this awful sickness. I also had to skip Black Belt Class so my dad and brother went instead. If I could change this day entirely I would so that I would feel great.
Today for home study I had a very light and short day. I had only two requirements for English, one requirement for Math, two requirements for History, and one requirement for Science. I got done at 2:30 and did not spend a lot of time on each subject thankfully.
Today is a new unit for school and our last one. Each unit is 10 weeks and we are on Unit 4. Now we have a new project and new lessons to learn. I hope that these 10 weeks will go well.
Ever since day light savings time came I have never felt awake. My classmates and I at school were all half awake and even my teachers were wishing they could go back to sleep. I think but at the end of the day a kid named Wes who wasn't here to show his project presented it to the class. It was really big and it worked almost perfectly. After that I started to wake up a little bit so at least I survived the day.
Today in the morning I woke up and was surprised to see the snow on the ground. Yesterday was really warm and today was snowing and that did not make any sense to me. But I enjoyed it and was very excited. We are also going to see a movie so this might be a weird day.
Today I slept in instead of waking up early for sparring because of soccer. My brother and dad had to get up though but I stayed in bed. I got up around 9:00 and had to eat breakfast and put my gear on. I lost my soccer game 8:2 and we were not very happy about the score. I can't wait for another day of the weekend tomorrow though.
Today I had no school so I had a free day. I woke up about 9:00 and had breakfast. After breakfast about 11:30 I helped my dad put logs onto a shelf so we can have a fire and stay warm. There were enough logs to last about a week. Also I am going to see a Hornets game with all of my school friends. I wish day could never end.
Today was the Culminating Event for my school. My class all shared our machines that we invented. I had one of the best projects which made a robot dance. Other people had some cool machines too like cracking open an egg. The other grades also had their projects like the 3rd graders launched rockets. This day was one of the best throughout the year.
Today at school I had to get ready for our Culminating Event which is on Thursday. That is the day where my classmates and I bring in our projects that we worked on during the month. We share our projects to parents who come to see what we have done and I made a machine for my project. I can't wait to share my project with the parents coming on Thursday.
Today at school for English we shared mini books that we made to the 2nd graders. We rotated through two stations until we had to leave. I read to six kids by the time we were done. This was a very exciting day to be with the 2nd graders.
Today I was coming home from Instructors Camp. I was really tired from all of the late night training and slept in today. I left the hotel at 10:45 and it took about two hours and thirty minutes to get home. I slept for thirty minutes of the ride back which refreshed me a little. I can't wait to go to bed after staying up late for two nights.
Today in school I am getting ready for my tests and quizzes. I have to study a lot of subjects because each of them has either a test or a quiz that I have to study for. So far I am doing good and know what is required so I hopefully will get good grades.
Today I had home school and it was very long. I got done at about 5:00 pm and it was tiring too. After I was done I went out for my two mile run which I did good and worked on requirements for most of the evening.
Today was a regular day. I got my grades back on my quizzes and I did two miles today. I just need to catch up on my push-ups and sit-ups. Also my burpees are really low so I need to do a lot of those. But my running is getting better each day so that is at least going well. But overall, I had a pretty good day.
Today at school we had a different schedule. We had our classes in the elementary building instead of the middle school building. Also our classes were at different times too. We got out at 2:30 in the afternoon also when we usually get out at 3:30. Today was a crazy day.
Today my dad and I had to work at the lake house. When we got there I had to get all of the leaves out of the pool. It took me about fifteen minutes to get it done. After the lake house I had to get my homework done which took about thirty minutes. So today was a day full of work.
Today when I woke up I was really tired I could barley think. I had so much trouble being awake. When I had orange juice it woke me fully so I was ready for my classes. I had a soccer game in the afternoon and my team lost by two points. Today turned out to be a great day besides my tiring start.
Today I had to work on my school project a lot. I am building a machine for my project and this is the last week to work on it. For school, today is project day. I hope I get a good grade on the project.
Today I my dad woke me up early for school. I accidentally fell back to sleep and almost did it again but I caught myself. I was super tired today and could barely think. Luckily, going to school woke me up and got me ready for the day. I did my requirements and went to bed.
Today was a long homeschool day. I finished at about 4:00 pm. Once I was done I went to bed and got some rest and had tacos for dinner. I finally found a mentee so this cycle might be going well.
Since I went to Disney last week, I have been doing school work for most of the day. I still didn't get done with all of it, so I'll have some extra homework tomorrow. It was really nice outside, and it was hard to keep focus on my work.
I got up at 9:30 today feeling ready for the day. I worked on my school project and went to the store for supplies. Tonight I went over to my friend's house and we grilled hamburgers over a fire. They tasted delicious! I had five burgers total. This was an excellent day.
Today my dad woke me up early because we had to go to sparring class and black belt class. I was really tired and felt like I needed more sleep. I actually woke up a little so I was ready for class. Today was a very slow and tiring day for me.
Today my family and I got back from Disney World. We had a lot of fun and it took us two days to get home. When we got home I was exhausted from the big trip. We stayed at Disney for four days with our friends the Keiths. We had a good dinner and we are about to go to bed.
Today was a very windy day. The morning was calm but after lunch it started getting aggressive. The outside door to my science room was flinging open and closed. Running is also tough when you are running against the wind. In the evening it has put an end to this windy day and is calm again, the it used to be.
Today was a very slow day. I woke up very early, about 6:30 in the morning. The subjects that I did for home school went by slowly. I was finally done by around 4:30 in the afternoon. This was one of my most exhausting days of my life.
Today for lunch I had chili in my container. Also my teacher shared her chicken with my class which tasted good. After school I worked on requirements and we are having tacos for dinner which is why this is one of my favorite days.
Today I had to study this morning and prepare for two tests. They weren't hard and I got through them easily. For dinner we are having ribs which is one of my favorite foods to eat.
Today I had to get up early for a soccer game. On the interstate there was a car crash that took us 30 minutes to get through. When we got to the field we warmed up and then started. My team and I lost by two points but we played a good game.
Today I had soccer practice, then had to run over to King Tiger for black belt class. I had a great mentor session with Master Cavazos and we went over 1st don self defense, special, and pomsaes.
Today I was home schooled which was very long. All the subjects took me a while to finish but I got through it all. After this exhausting day I finished up my requirements and had dinner.
Today at school I had two tests. One test for History and another for English. They were good and I got through them without much trouble. For the rest of the day I worked on requirements for the black belt cycle.
Today in the morning I got done with some requirements before going to school. At school I had to prepare for a test that will be on Tuesday. So far I am almost done with my daily requirements and I am keeping up with the cycle.
This morning, I took sparring class and black belt class and had a good workout. In sparring class we worked on round house kicks and cut kicks and ended up with some stretching which really helped. Durng black belt class, we worked on our first don self defense and new Pawgway Pomsaes. Overall, we had a good day.
Today in the morning my dad, brother, and I were 30 minutes late for sparring class. Instead my brother took family class and my dad and I took black belt class. After that, we went to lunch at Harris Teeter and a late lunch. For dinner we had ribs which tasted great for dinner and enjoyed ourselves for the rest of the evening.
This morning I went outside to do my run. First I got my rain coat on, then I headed out of the door right after I was finished tying my shoes. It wasn't too cold, but I could still feel a breeze in the air. After my run I ate some waffles that my mom made right when I came home. I couldn't wait to try her waffles. They were really good and I had two of them plus some bacon. I can't wait to see how this day will turn out.
Tonight at black belt class we did about twelve poomsaes. The poomsaes that I did was Yuk Chang, Chil Chang, Pal Chang, Basic Form One, Basic Form Two, Basic Form Three, Pal Gwe Il Chang, Pal Gwe Yi Chang, and Koryo poomsaes. Black belt class made my left arm sore. I wonder what we will do next week in black belt class.
Today I have a shorter day of home school. I wonder what I will have to do to complete it. Also a person is coming at 9:00 a.m. to check the top of our house. Well I can't wait to get this day started.
This morning I went to church to learn more about God. We learned about the differences of what God made and how they are different. Also we talked about how the Trinity was always there and how they are equal. But each of the persons in the Trinity have a different job. Besides our Bible lesson the way that we did things were normal and no changes or any different plans yet.
Today I had school then went to black belt class. There we practiced poomsaes and self-defenses. After that I went to the back and did some more requirements until my mom picked me up while I was watching my dad's combative class. Overall everything was normal and no new things going on today.
Today I worked with my mentee, Gregory. We practiced sparring combinations and hook round house kicks. We went through 1-14 of his sparring combos and helped him on his kicking technique for hook round house kicks. Overall he did very well and can't wait to finish my sessions with him.
During black belt class I helped out with the warm-ups for my leadership 2. I think it's fun getting to be loud and leading the class in a specific activity. I lead all the warm-up parts and smiled when I finished. Before I used to be nervous but now I enjoy doing it and feel more relaxed.
Today at church we talked about how God's creations are amazing and how he always planned for us to be on this planet. We also read a few verses from the Bible that talk about how amazing God's creations are. My teacher also said that God is so powerful that all he did was speak and everything appeared. I think that what he did was amazing because none of us can do what he did, we have to use our hands and work instead of speaking. I can't wait to hear more next week.
Today I had to do my physical and written test. First we had to find a partner, my partner was Jeeya. Then we did push-ups, she put her fist under my stomach and I would have to make my stomach touch for the push-up to count. I got 42 push-ups, after that she did her push-ups and got 50. Next was sit ups, I got 35 and she got 45. Next I did my 1 mile run and my time was 9:03. Finally we did our written test and was done.
Today I was doing the rest of my essays. It only took me about 30 minutes. I feel really good and relaxed once I got something important done.
Tonight in black belt class we worked on poomsaes and self-defenses. The poomsaes we did were Basic Forms One and Two, we also did Bo-Cho Dan One step self-defense. My partner was Diego and he was new to the self-defenses so I helped him out with 1-6. Master Evins also came over to see how we were doing and he helped Diego with his self-defense techniques. After black belt class my dad took me home.
Today in sparring class I did sparring class with Master Evins. First we lined up in the back and did some running and skipping. I learned how to slide off line and use a cut kick to throw off my opponent.
Tonight in black belt class we worked on poomsaes and self defenses. We did Koreo, Sam Chang, and Chil Chang. After that we practiced our self defenses. There was also a new person that did Tae Kwon Do in Atlanta and came to our studio tonight. He was a First Degree black belt and was new to our type of style. For self defenses we did green belt and yellow belt. Then our class ended and the Philippine Combative class started.
Cool day in class teaching a new white belt his basic kicks. It was a really good experience. Rain most of the day so I'm glad I got my run in the morning.
Today at church when I got dropped off I went into a game room where everyone was having fun and playing games. about four people were playing video games and the rest were either watching, or doing something else like pool. Five minutes later we had to go so we walked into a room and had a seat. The room wasn't too big, but we could all fit in perfectly. There were lots of seats and I sat in the back row with some of the other sixth graders. After they showed us a quick video we headed to our other rooms and our teacher talked to us about people who believe in different things and how people have had to debate about their beliefs. Next I went to go to my mom and we went together into her church to hear the pastor preach. Then we picked up my brother,...
Another rainy day for a walk, not as I expected it to turn out. I wish that it didn't rain because then there wouldn't be so much mud on the ground. Luckily we wore our rain coats so most of our body would be protected from the rain. But even with all that rain I still enjoyed the walk with my mom and brother. I also can't wait for my dad to come home tomorrow. On our walk the ground was very muddy and I tried not to step in the mud, but at least I came prepared with my sandals so they can get wet and my tennis shoes would get wet so I also came prepared for that too. But besides all that my walk was pretty nice.
My final walk was with my mom and brother. My dad left to train at Myrtle Beach so he could get to level ten for Philippine Combative. I just can't wait for him to come home and tell me about what he did. So we started our walk and the rain stopped and we were just walking on the gravel talking and having a good time. We entered Canterbury Rd. where the gravel road was left behind. We started to climb the short hill then go straight. After that we entered Surry Rd. and when we got to the end we turned around but that's when it started to rain. My mom was not very happy but my brother was excited and started to run. We then all ran trying to get back to the house before the storm drenched us. We finally made it safely home after about .3 miles....
Tonight during black belt class I lead the first part of the warm-ups. I was very excited as I walked to the front of the class. I smiled a little while walking up and didn't feel nervous at all. I was ready to tackle this task and complete it to the end. I had a great time leading and used my loud voice to echo across the room so everyone could hear me. After I was finished I jogged back feeling proud of what I've done and thinking about that at the end of class I would get the requirement signed off.
