Fake snow day

Today at about 6:15 I woke up and did my requirements for the day. Then around 10:15 I went to king tiger for camp because apparently it was a  snow day ( even though there was no snow) But I was able to get ahead on my requirements for black belt cycle.YAY! Then I at 4 : 30 I went to sparring at Grand Master Evens dojang. Because on Thursday I have dance and can't do sparing at my place/ Huntersville NC it was really fun we had a different teacher this time.👍

Snow day

My mom woke me up this morning and told me there was no school cause it was a snow day! At first I was very excited.I got up and did some of my requirements and running. We went downstairs I looked on the back deck and... 😔😭😢😰I'm so disappointed! There's hardly any snow at all. I couldn't even build a snow ball! WHAT A LET DOWN!!!! The only good news is that I don't have to go to school today with my substitute.

Late run

Today was just a normal day of king tiger because after school dance class got  canceled. I did get a mentee for bb. His name is Xander. And my mentor is Ms. Jen. (But i already had her as my mentor) I did all my requirements this morning. I'm going to go run 0.25 miles now cause this morning I only had enough time to do 0.75.

Boring

Today I woke up and watched tv then around 11 I did my black belt mile and other requirements then took a shower did piano, grit work book and then played on my tablet for a while. I didn't go outside at all today or out of the house, that's probably why it was pretty boring but not to bad I did get I late birthday present from my neighbor and went to say good bye to my neighbor that's moving. So I guess I did go outside... it wasn't really that boring just a chill indoor day. <..>:);)[:(÷ ._.

Black belt pretest

Today was the black belt pretest. At first I was freaking out at home I was crying and did not think I could do it. But when I got there I had fun running the mile and on the bus ride to Grand Master Evens dojo. I actually was really surprised how good I and everyone was!I panicked for no reason and ended up having a blast!

Nervous

Tonight was really hard. I was looking over the study guides and started getting really nervous. I decided to skip dance to further study and practice. The written test scares me the most. I just feel like I will draw a blank when it really matters. I'm going to go study now I hope if you feel the way I do just remember "that this is a challenge that you will be proud of for the rest of your life."🤪
