I’ve been falling a little behind on my journals lowkey. Today I got to sleep in finally and when I got up I was planning on going to sparring class but I had to end up doing stuff with my family. I have time to make it up. Later on I went to the mall and buy some stuff for our house. We had food at the mall and it was reallyyyy bad. When I came back home i had an online meeting and right after I went to watch the odyssey and it was very good. I just came back home, goodnight!
Today I had band camp in the morning but only till 12 today. We were out marching in the VERY hot sun for like 3 hours but it’s kinda fun once u get the hang of it. After that I got home and was able to chill for some time. Later I facetimed my friend as well. It was nice to be able to chill after a long time. Then i had dance class and I got chipotle for dinner. That’s all goodnight!
Today was a longggg day. In the morning i had a dmv appointment to get my learners permit and me and my dad had to keep leaving and coming back to get some random papers we didn’t know we needed to have. But eventually i tested and i passed!! After that i had some lunch and went to band camp. I didn’t know i could get take the school piccolo home so today i did. I definitely need some practice on certain songs. I came back at 5:30 ish and took a small break to chill. Then I had to go to tkd to get some leadership credits in and a mentor session. Straight after I had to head to the gym to complete my run and some remaining requirements. I hate running on the treadmill so I ran outside near the gym and when i came back i finished my...
Today I had band camp in the morning. Not too much physical stuff today we were practing out songs a lot more. So far I’ve got one mostly memorized. I’m still not the biggest fan of the piccolo however. Playing is pretty fun at least when ur not doing it for realllyyy long. I’m excited to start marching while playing! Anyways, after I came back I took a small chill break before I had to go to tkd class to get some leadership credits in. I was also able to get a mentee session. During camp I was able to finish all my jump rope and sit up stuff and a 1.5 mile run but i still need more miles. I was gonna run after class but it was raining pretty heavily and it was dark and wet outside. Tomorrow we are moving my sister into her apartment where she’s staying...
Today was the first day of full band camp. It was from 8-5 and it was strenuous. We had to run 3 laps because 3 people came late. And it was so hot while we were marching. I’m still kinda getting used to piccolo. It was pretty fun but tiring for the most part. Once I came back I had a little snack before getting ready to go to my friends bday party. It was a small but fun party. Pretty packed day, goodnight!
Today was my grandmas bday! After I woke up I was talking to her and chilling a little. Later on I had some food and starting working on her cake. I made her a mango white chocolate cake and it turned out pretty good! I went to sunday sparring class for the first time around 2 and it was very different from normal class. We did a bunch of unique exercises and I was among professional sparrers so when it came time for actual matches they were very intense and cool to watch. I learned a lot and am looking forward to next week. When i came home I finished up frosting the cake and we had some people over to have a small celebration. Everyone said my cake was very good. Pretty normal day, my rest day so no requirements today but still pretty tiring because of sparring. Tomorrow is...
Today I started off the day with a black belt class. I was definitely able to get a lot of poomsae and self defense minutes in. Later when I came home, I was just chilling cuz my parents were getting ready to go on a day trip. I was practicing my piano and playing with my dog and stuff. My grandmas birthday is tomorrow so I was thinking about baking her a cake. I watched some Tv and my sister went out with her friends. In the meanwhile I was looking at cake recipes. I ordered some dinner for me and my grandma but i ordered it pretty late. Oh i also went on a walk with my dog for 2.25 miles. That’s all, goodnight!
Today was kind of a rest day. I wasn’t supposed to take one today since I already took some earlier this week but band camp and the cycle have been really tiring me so today I skipped band camp and got some good sleep finally. I was planning on finishing my requirements later on in the day but my stomach was hurting really badly. I was kinda just chilling mostly but I went to my dance class at the end of the day. That’s it Goodnight!
Today was once again tiring. I had marching band camp in the morning and we were running and practicing marching out in the hot sun. When I came back home I ate some lunch and got some nice rest so that was good but I had to finish up my jump rope. Then I was playing piano for some time and just chilling a little before going to taekwondo to help out with a class. Very small class but still fun. Once I came back home I was pretty tired but I still had to do my run so around 9 I did a quick 2 miles and now i am exhausted and I have to do it again tomorrow. Goodnight!
Today was very tiring. I had get up at 7 for my band camp which is 8-12 and we were outside doing a bunch of physical training and marching and hen when I came home I didn’t have much of a break before I Had to finish my black belt requirements but at least it was less because of camp. I’ve also fallen behind on my pull ups. Anyways after that, I chilled for a half hour ish and then got ready to go to class to get a leadership credit and some practice in. Not many people today overall but i was able to get a mentee session in as well so that was good. After I got home I had a nice dinner and now im so tired and sleepy so goodnight!(have to do it all over again tomorrow)
Today was my birthday!! I went to band camp in the morning and we did some physical training in the beginning and then they kind of gave us a rundown of expectations and things to memorize. It was pretty cool. I took a rest day today so I didn’t really do physical requirements when i got home. After camp, when i came back my mom was setting up some things for my bday party and I had some lunch and showered. One of my friends came early and we were just talking and looking through board games we could all play when everyone came. Some time later more ppl come and we were just playing games, talking and eating and it was very fun!! They also gave me the best gifts🥹🥹. We got some really good food for dinner and my cake was nice too. Overall this is definitely one of...
I slept in today and once I got up I had a nice breakfast and was watching a movie with my sister. Then later on I was chilling until my 2 pm sparring class but when I got there for some reason there was no one there and the building was closed. I guess it got cancelled and I didn’t know. Anyways I got home, and practiced some self defense and played with my dog. My bday party is tomorrow so I was planning a little for that too for like food and games and stuff. After a while I went on my run walk and I’m pretty proud of how consistent I was. I did 3 miles and my pace wasn’t that fast but I pushed myself more than usual so I’m still happy. After that, I got ready to go to Frankie’s with my sister. We weren’t there for...
I woke up and went to black belt class first thing in the morning. We were going to go running during class but it was raining so we didn’t🥹🥹(i forgot my sneakers anyway). It was a pretty normal class. Afterwards I came home and was chilling around with my family till lunch and then had some leftovers to eat. After that some hours later I got ready and went to the mall with my mom and grandma and since my bday party is coming up we went to buy some clothes and return gifts. We got some pretty nice stuff and I ran into people I knew which is a give when u go to Concord Mills. Then once I came home we had. a guest over and I packed up the gifts and was just chilling. I had dinner and wrapped up the day. Unfortunately, I’m pretty behind on my pull up’s and a little on my self defense, I also have to make up a run tomorrow which is supposed to be a rest day but today turned into one instead. That’s all for today, Goodni
Today was supposed to be my run day and it was going to be a shorter run than usual since i ran extra earlier this week but I wasn’t able to get to it. I went to my friends bday party from 12 to 4 and when I came back I was planning on completing my run and going to sparring but I’ve been missing a lot of my dance class lately for taekwondo and I have a recital coming up so I had to practice that instead of run and got to dance class instead of sparring. I’m thinking i’m going to just go to Sunday class instead of Friday so i’ll be able to manage dance as well. Today ending up turning into a somewhat rest day so I’ll have to make up the run tomorrow or Sunday. After my dance class, I went out to eat with my...
Pretty normal day. I was just chilling with my dog for some time and then finished my requirements. My bday is c
Hi! I need to remember to start journaling everyday because i forgot yesterday. Anyways today was chill in the beginning because it’s run day so I have to wait till evening when it cools down to go for my run. So until then I was just chilling but around 5:30 I went for a 2 mile run/walk and it was still pretty hot. Right after I took a small break and had to get ready for bbc. It starts at 7:05 and I came at 7:04 but I was still late so I was all the way in the back which felt weird because the other first dance where like 3 rows ahead of me😭. I usually try to come earlier but i also had to go to a bday party right after my class so I had to prepare some stuff for it since I was going to be late due to bbc. I also forgot my staff and sticks so not a great starts for the first week but i still got many more for a redemption arc. Anyways now my legs really hurt and Im going to take a fat shower, goodnight!
This is my first journal and I am currently a first dan testing for my second. I honestly have been really dreading the cycle just because last time all the physical requirements were really tough on me. But I kinda think it was because I was so hard on myself with everything, I made my entire life literally only taekwondo and it was lowkey draining. So now I've figured out a way to split up my requirements to make it easier on myself and maintain balance throughout the cycle. Today is run day so I'm just waiting for the weather to cool down a little like in the evening time or something and then I'll do my run. Summer has been kinda boring for me so far so the black belt cycle does give me something to focus on. I also had the World Cup which I watched pretty regularly but...
