Black Belt Test

A while back I and some others did the black belt test although I never had the chance to blog it untill now. I think I did good on the written test with a 97 I think is what I got. For the physical test I did better than the pre test. And got 8:32 for my mile run. I think I should have done better on pull ups, but I at least tried.

Missed Class

Today I woke up at my friend's house because we were having a sleepover. Then my mom picked me up so I could go get a haircut. The haircut took too long for us to make it to saturday black belt class so we skipped it. The good thing is i already took enough saturday black belt classes so it did not do any bad for me.
