Today I had to pack my TKD uniform before going to school. I found my belt and pants pretty easily, but the top was the hardest. I circled the living room about 18 times, the rec room a couple of times, and then I found it in my bedroom

Today I had to go to the doctor to get shots. I was scared at first, but then once I did it, it only hurt for a couple of seconds.
This morning I had to run 2 miles in the pouring rain. I got to run with my sister and we found a dead frog on the road.
Today at the kicks for kids festival it rained. I'm glad it waited until the end though. I still got to do a bunch of things even though i went to the Master Estrada seminar.
Tonight I went to my friend Ben's house. It was a lot of fun. We played football and wrestled. Then we played some wii and had dinner. After that we played more wii and my mom came to pick me up
For the past couple of days I have been prepping for the test. I think I'm going to be fine, but I still need to practice the written test.

Today on my kindle I got a new game called sensei wars. I am already on level 4, it is my new favorite game.
For the past couple of days I have been reading on my dad's nook. For some reason I have been attracted to it, and I have been reading it for all of my reading assignments for school, and most of my free time.
Today and yesterday I have been sick. It has not been very pleasant because my dad is making me take medicine. The only good part about it is that I don't have to go to school.
Earlier today I wen to church at a new place that I have never been to, except when I was blind for my empathy training. Now, I am getting ready to watch the Panthers Vs Ravens game.
Today I had to pull weeds on the side of my house and in my mother's roses. Pulling the weeds was my punishment for getting in trouble at school. It was not fun. I got poked by thorns a lot, saw a bunch of worms, and yellow fuzzy things on a tree.
Today I wen to three classes. Green and higher, black belt, and sparring. I was very glad because I got some requirements in.
Today since I completed push ups, sit ups, burpees, falls and kicks, my dad only had me do 10 sparring rounds, 10 minutes of jump rope and 2 rounds of self-defense (white through BD special). I am happy since this is not as much as I usually have to do.
Today was my second day of selling soap for my community service project. Even though most of the people that I planned to see were not home, I still had a good trip. I am now over 100 dollars.

Today since my sister got to spend the night with her friend, I got to go to my mom's work and stay their until it closed. I got to play on the computers and check out a book. When the library closed, my mom gave me a doughnut, then we got home and I got to play on my kindle until it was time to pick my dad up at Tae Kwon Do. After picking him up we went out to eat at Cafe 157. Then we came home and I am staying up late to work on requirements.
Today I get to go and play football with my friends, its not going to be as fun today, because it is my turn to referee this week.

Today I went to a soccer tournament in South Carolina. The two games that I played were my first games of the season. Even though we lost both of the games, I was still happy that I got to play.
Today I watched the ECU at VT game the Kansas at Duke game and now the Georgia at South Carolina game.
Yesterday in class we did something called the ladder, where you have to do 10 pushups, 10 situps then 9 of each, 8 and so on. It was not fun because you have to start over every time someone messes up, and we started over twice.
Today at Tae Kwon Do class we practiced Bo Cho Dan Special and Knife self-defense. We also practiced Basic Form 3.
Today my Grandmother came over and I was not expecting it. Usually, every Sunday we bring her to church, but this week we did not, so she decided to stay a little longer.
On Friday, my teacher gave me homework over the weekend. I was not happy about it. After I got it done, it was not that bad because I knew I would have a normal weekend of doing requirements and chores.
Yesterday I went to a labor day party in my neighborhood. It was fun, I got to see all my friends and jump on their new trampoline. We also had a dance party. Today, I ran for the first time since the pre-test, and it was really hot outside. I was sweating so much that I wasn't allowed to sit on the couch until I had taken a shower.
This weekend I went on a camping trip in the mountains with my family and friends. We rented a tube and I really enjoyed floating down the river. We also got to sing Karaoke and play badminton.

Today I got my written test results back and I got 100, I was happy with it.

Today I get to stay home all day because I start school in 2 days and can't go to summer camp.
Today I have to go to a baptism so I have to do my requirments in the morning. Yesterday was my last day of summer camp I am sad.:(
Today and yesterday my group at summer camp won awards for spirit, cheering people on, and picking up trash. sssssssssssssss
Today I did my essay for the white belt challenge and empathy training. It took 3hrs! ...
Today was supposed to be normal. Instead my mom picked me up from summer camp really late so I could not do a bunch of stuff.
Today I'm spending the day blind for my empathy training. It really stinks because I had to got to church and to brunch while blind. I didn't want to do "blind", I wanted to do the wheelchair. But, my parents wouldn't let me and said I had to do "blind."
Today has been a lot like yesterday. I stayed home from summer camp, and my dad made me do a bunch of requirements.
Today I did a ton of requirements. I did a lot of self defense, poomsae and all that stuff. Getting ready to go to black belt and then sparring class.
For the past 3 days I went to camp at Belk Scout Camp in Midland NC. We got to swim everyday and shoot rifles. We also got to go to a trading post and do archery competition. We also got to name one of the staff "Twinkie" because he sang a song about Twinkies on the first day of camp. I got to do the flag ceremony on the second day and I got to say grace before breakfast. Finally we got to sleep over every night. I only did 2 pull ups and 3 random acts of kindness at camp. I have some catching up to do on poomsaes, self defense and jump rope.
Today I went to summer camp, and when my dad picked me up, we went to Tae Kwon Do. When we got home it was pretty late and I thought I was not done with my requirements for the day. Then I remembered that I did a bunch of pushups and situps at Tae Kwon Do and that I wasn't really behind.
Today my family had to prepare for the newcomer in December. I helped my dad build the changing table for the baby. We also cleared space out of a room where the baby would sleep, and my dad put the crib together. We also had to put the rooms in the order that we wanted them to be in, so we would have enough space for the baby.
Yesterday, I went to a fourth of July party at my neighbors house. My friends and I got to do the fireworks show during the party. We set off fireworks called "Little Dynamite" and burned LEGOs during the day. I am going to another party today, also at my neighbors house and I believe I will have fun. My mom disliked the idea of me and my friends to set off the mini-dynamite. She was correct. I burned my pinky and lost hearing in one ear for a minute.
Today I had to catch up for my days off. I was very behind on jump rope, poomses and self-defense. I barely got any free time because I was having to catch up on all my stuff. I had to do an interval run which is a run where you sprint for a period of time and then jog for a period of time and keep going back and forth. I also had to do homework which also cut down my free time.
Today at summer camp, the award that is given out to the cleanest group went missing, and the group that lost it got drenched with water for losing it. There was also a pie eating contest for the counselors and the counselors for the Older Camp won. It was very fun to watch because they weren't allowed to use their hands.
Today was a lot of work. I had to go through a whole different routine when I got home from summer camp and Tae Kwon Do. I had to show initiative by putting all of my stuff away and doing my pushups and situps.
Today I had a talk with my dad about taking initiative with my Black Belt requirements. I learned what initiative meant and how to use it. So now I'm waking myself up early in the morning instead of my dad, and doing my requirements without being asked. At camp, my group won three awards, for cleaning up my camp, being loud (having spirit) and cheering people on at the tower. Last week at camp, I was awarded the most respectful person out of 200 kids in older camp.
Today I wasn't happy about waking up early to go on a run, and do a lot of push ups and sit ups. I had to go to summer camp after that, and I was so tired, that I brought my pillow into the car for the ride. By the end of summer camp, I was very tired because we are outside all day. I was looking forward to the end of the day when I could eat dinner, but still have to do more push ups and sit ups.
Today has been very hard. It is my first day doing the requirements for the black belt cycle. I did not expect all the work and the routine that me and my dad did. I have to catch up because I missed yesterday because I had to go to Mooresville to play in the Powerade State Games for soccer.
