FINALLY

The reason that I am saying "FINALLY" is because I can do it on my computer rather then what I did last night ( last night = Facebook journal ). My dad ( thank you dad <3 love you ) found out a way and fixed my computer and I am very happy that he did ( i really did not want to do anymore Facebook journals ). Today I started my community service essay, and also went to go see the movie The House with a Clock in its Walls ( 4 1/2 stars out of 5 is my rating ). We also went around the mall where we watched the movie and got groceries after. That was it, thank you and see you tomorrow.

2nd Week Begins

Today was the start of the 2nd week of school. As if the first week wasn't hard already, finding your classes and getting back into the swing of things. Today was not that hard, it was actually pretty fun. I took sparring as well. Todays sparring was like the others, but we also did drills. I personally liked the drills that we were doing, they were pretty cool. Well that is were I am going to finish for today. See you next time.

We Have to Talk

 OK today at sparring my brother had a problem. So when he was sparring someone, he continued to keep kicking to the head. My brother at the end of the match had a headache after. My brother is under 10 and is not allowed to get kicked in the head. Also how many times he got kicked was a lot. It was like 5 times, I can not remember. Either way I feel that if you know that the other person is not as good as you then you should take it at least a little easy. I really do not have words. As a black belt I should of stopped the fight but I was too caught up to see what was going on. Even if it wasn't my brother if it was another kid I should be aware and make sure that every is sparring safely. See you tomorrow.

My D.C. Trip

It has been so long since I have blogged and I am glad to be back. I just got back from Washington D.C. and I have so much to talk about. First off this was one of the most amazing vacations that I have ever been on. One of the things that I enjoyed was all the history that is behind all the landmarks.

A quick Monday

  Today for some reason this Monday went by so quick I think that it is a Friday to be honest. Anyway it was a good day because I have no Math homework. I am so happy because I don’t have to worry about it so much. Plus I love that my teacher gives me a break and no stress about it. After that I was at the top of the class at the subject in science. It was the circulatory system. I watch a lot of educational video in science so you get good at it as time goes on. That is why I got a 10/10 at the end of the test. After school my grandfather picked me up. I hung out with them and then my mom picked me up and now we are here at home.Today was a really good Monday and hope that they are all...

Friday

 The beginning of my Friday was very very fun. We went to the first ALL PRO DAD meeting that they do at my school. It is when dads take a bit of their work time to spend time with their kids and it teaches us about how dads are important in our lives. It was very beneficial to go the meeting so dads connect with their kids and know that they are a very important part of their life and future. After that we took two science tests and I made the best grades ever. A big fat and happy 100%. I am so proud that I did so well.  Also after school I went to black belt and did some poomsae and some weapons forms. I did stick, staff and some bolo.

Testing day

Today was testing day for the Lake Norman area. All of the testers did very well. I am so very proud of my metee to for doing so well at testing. At school I am so happy that D.A.R.E is starting up in few weeks. D.A.R.E is a class that you go to learn about the use of drugs and how they are a danger to you and your life.

Wednesday

 Today was a good day like the other school days but this time I rode the bus to school yesterday and today and I enjoyed going on the bus. The one thing that is a  minus to this type of getting to school is the driver. The diver is the meanest person I ever will meet in my life. He yells at you for just turning your head in your seat. It is the most craziest thing in my life he yells for nothing at all. Anyways today I had Media and the first thing I did was read the book I got. After Media my class did math and some science. Oh and I almost forgot I also did the requiremets.Right now I am going to read for 20 min so see you next time ;].

 Today I did something new and I really had fun. What did I do you may ask, well I went to lagoon that went to the ocean. The cool thing about this is was that I have never seen a lagoon before so that was a new experience. Plus the ocean did not have as much waves so it was nice a calm there. The water there was not cold but not hot so the water was perfect to swim in. We also found some sea shells at the beach and there were some awesome ones there.  Oh and I almost forgot that my brother got a starfish at the ocean. Of course we let it go but it was cool to have a live starfish in my brother’s hand. Also we saw some fish in the lagoon jumping out of the water and we also saw a tadpole in the lagoon...
