Hello, today I went to school, and had Spanish, and we learned about Spain again.  After school I came home, and did some of my homework, and did my requirements.  After that I went to King Tiger, and had a mentor session, then I took the 6:00 class.  After that I came home, and did the rest of my homework.       The reason that it says #50pt. 1 is because I counted wrong, and that is 2 journals ahead so I still have 2 more.   Good night!

I woke up in the morning and I got ready, then I ate breakfast and went to the track to run a mile.  My original plan was to run 2 miles but I decided to only run 1, because my stomach was cramping. After the mile I went home and did my requirements.  After that, all I had to do was Poomsae and self defense and so I went to my grandmas house for a while, then came home and did the rest of the things I needed to do.

In the morning when I woke up and got ready for the pre-test, the running part of the pre-test was pushed back to the 13th of January because of the rain. I didn't really study for the written portion of the test so I studied a little bit in the car driving there.  When I got there I was a little nervous, but for the most part i was fine.  I was pretty confident with everything I did so at the end of the cycle i hope i do good.
