Early morning

Today we had to get up early for sparring and black belt class. The sparring class and black belt class was a lot of fun. I really Master Hama and Master Jean. Everyone seemed like they had a good time. When we got home, we and my dad were really tired. Earlier that day, my friend Parker came to get me to do some dirt biking. We had a lot of fun.

Home Study Day

Today was a long day. I worked on math, spelling, grammar. Some was difficult and some was easy. I enjoy math a lot. Some problems were hard to understand. I'll be going to the sparring seminar in a little while. I'm getting late doing my requirements but I'm getting them done now. This seminar should be fun. Hope to see you there.

The adventure is over

Today, we had to come back from the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was very fun while it lasted. We got to go on a lot of cool hikes, some of them were mostly flat and one was all uphill. The views were gorgeous. You could see the towns and valleys forever. On the first we hike we saw a very beautiful waterfall. We stayed in our motor home and at the campsite, I caught a lot of fish. We are now back and getting ready for school the next day and I'm not happy about it.

Home study day

Today is Friday and I'm at home doing my school work. Hope Academy is a Christian school that has a university model that does 3 days at the school and two days at home. It is a great school and I really like it. We did two hours of math today which was a bit hard because we had to do a lot of work with big numbers of population differences of different countries. My requirements are going ok. Still have a lot of work to do and a lot of improvement. My dad is helping a little bit. I am very excited about the seminars coming up. Can't do some sticks!!

Quick day

So far it has been a very quit day at least how long I have been here. I have been at home most of the day but we are just playing pokemon. We are having       snack right now, you get more and more used to the cycle every day. Sometimes I wish I could play a lot of games, but I still have to do requirements.             We are about to play tiger ball I hope you liked it a lot by now.

Long Week

It has been a super long week full of craziness the cycle is tough and its supposed to be tough. The easiest thing for me is the pomsaes and self defense and the hardest is the run. The hardest thing about the run is finding time to do the run and sometimes knowing you have to run everyday even though you are tired. Easiest thing about pomsaes and self defenses is you just have to remember it and do it strong.
