Candidate Journals

I very miserbely got out of bed at 4:50 am to go take a shower then after I started on my black belt things which took only roughly an hour so I just spent from 6:00 to 7:00 reasearching some races to run but then I had to go to school which was 10x more boring than yesterday but also I got to see everyones history project and I personally think mine was the best, not to brag. After the last bell rang I just sat with my friends and finnished my math homework while waiting for my bus, which wasn't late today which I was really surprised because it's been late every single other day of the year. Once I got home I went on a quick mile run than got on my uniform and went to class, after class I went to the store for dog food then home...

Soooo tired  Took the 2nd graders on a field trip today, yes they're fun, but also stressful. I could have easily skipped blackbelt class and went to bed at 5pm....but I went to class, had a mentor session,  and had a good class. No forca shower and bed.

I woke up today still not feeling the best. Mom made a doctors appt. for me, so I rode with her to drop Anthony at school then we headed to the doctor, and the doctor swabbed me for Strep and it came back positive.  We got my meds and headed home, mom made me some breakfast before she headed to work while I stayed home with MiMi and LaLa.  I took a couple naps today, did some reading and my black belt stuff, except for running.  When mom got home we had dinner and then I took a shower and now I am heading to bed.  I feel alot better tonight!!!

See... I'm a tiny bit tired.. (Just a little bit). I need some SLEEPPP! I did all my requirements at home today and got a jump start yesterday afternoon. I am not proud to announce that I haven't done a journal in 3 days straight. I'm giving up. I've done a lot of activities recently and I want to start back crochet again. I need some projects to work on for anybody at Lake Norman. I'll be glad to do any crochet projects for anyone if you want one. (Just don't do very hard ones, I'm still pretty new </3) We are all already half way through week one (WHOOO HOOOO!!!!!) Keep up the good work! Good NIGHT!!

I woke up a little tired today because I went to be a little later than usual. but I had a good day at school. I had PE class for my encore. Tomorrow I am very excited because we have camp day in our class.  See yall tomorrow at sparring!

Good evening, everyone! Today was a long day. I woke up extra early today to finish my requirements from yesterday and today. It was way too cold outside, so I ended up running back and forth through my house. I went to school pretty excited because today I was helping out with a VR station truck to implement STEM into our school. It was nice for the most part, but I hoped that there were chairs because my legs were pretty sore. After the school day ended, I came back and took a very long nap. I have some homework to finish and plan to head to sleep early today. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Today was a quiet day.  I got a few requirements in, but not the large amount that I thought I was going to get in.  Everyone else was away at school, so I took that time to catch up on the sleep I don't get while I'm at school.  I also ended up replacing a light for my grandparents.  On my first black belt cycle, I started to feel extremely sore on my third or fourth day.  I tried to start getting into a normal routine this time to avoid getting that sore right at the beginning.  Anyway, my run path is still partially frozen over.  Tomorrow is forecasted to be colder than today so I'm not sure if it's going to fully melt even by then.

School was alright today, second day back so my classes were still going over the syllabus. Going to bed early today cause tomorrow is gonna rough. I'm gonna go to school tomorrow and and be tired, then head over to taekwondo for the rest of my day.

Today I went to school and began calculus, I started after school to take that class. So when I got home, I didn’t have much time to complete any requirements before I had to go to piano. After I finally finished everything for the day, I took a shower and did all my homework.

Apologies for no journal yesterday, it was my mothers birthday and she is far more umportant than this entire cycle (fight me if you disagree :D).   HAPPY BIRTHDAY!   My mother has turned 27 (play along even if you disagree), which means just another Mother's Day. Me and my family got her a cake, some makeup products, and alone time (most needed by any mother). While I will not know how good of a birthday she had, I know that she was having a good day. I love my mother so much, and I have nothing but sheer gratefulness towards her!   BUT BACK TO ME!   I am pretty much done with Week 1 of my cycle, which means moving on to Week 2! This same thing happened last cycle, however I hope to get much further ahead this time in order to leave room for essays and general downtime. It...

Today I woke up a little more tired than usual.  I got ready and went to school. I had a test today, and almost fell asleep while doing my test.  After school I rode the bust to King Tiger where I did my stuff but felt weird and really tired, but I got a leadership and a class assistance credit tonight as well! Then we went to cubscouts where we talked to the bear den about the pinewood derby!  When I got home I was still not feeling well, I took a shower and now I am heading to bed.  I hope I feel better in the morning!!   Goodnight 

I decided I felt behind even though I wasn't so I just got out of bed and decided to try to do double of everything which I ended up doing just a few minutes before I had to get ready for school, and this time I left a few minutes earlier since my bus was really early yesterday but today it was late, so thats always nice and once I got to school I waited for the bell to ring so I can go my classes. Most classes were really long and boring and felt longer than a hour, specificly math class and history. But midway through the day I thought I needed to bring in a project for my history class but thankfully wasn't due today, so i'll bring that in tommorow, but after the last bell rang I waited for my always late bus to take me back home...

Good evening, everyone! Today was a busy day. I started off waking up early and headed to school. After school, I came back home exhausted and got in a quick power nap. I just came back from a Chick-fil-A night I set up for a club at my high school. We had to get people to say "DECA" (the name of the organization) at the register to pay in order to gain a profit for our club. I wasn't able to do as much as I hoped today coming from requirements or homework, so I'm planning on making it up tomorrow. I have some math homework I need to finish before I go to bed. I'm hoping to get some good sleep tonight because I have a lot to do tomorrow. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Here we are again...my second cycle towards my 4th degree has begun.  I'm starting my journal entries a little late, but my workouts and requirements started on time. Due to the cold weather, my walking / jogging will be slower because I have trouble breathing in cold.     Here's to the next 10-12 weeks 

Today at school I had a good day. I had art as my encore. Math was really fun and literacy was too. I got to play some new math games and play outside with my friends for recess. 

Today was a normal day at King Tiger for me.  School started already for everyone.  I'm still here enjoying my winter break, and although everyone I know is busy, I can get in some extra black belt cycle requirements.  This week is also a quiet time to catch up on things that I don't have much time for otherwise.  Books to read, games to play, shows to watch (and I am most definitely going to nerd out in my journal entries, so expect that from me in the future), calls to make, model rockets to launch, and maybe a few other things that I can't think of right now.  Anyway, I think that's enough for today.  I will see everyone later.

First day back at school and already feel the fatigue kicking in. Seeing familiar faces after a month feels nice and warm in this freezing weather, but still rather stay in bed and stay warm. 

I’m back again for my last cycle to earn my fourth degree. Today was just another regular day at school. When I came home I rested and then completed most of my requirements before going to the dojang to help with class. I look forward to seeing everyone this cycle. 

Today I woke up earlier than we have been so we could walk to school to get in 1 of my miles.  I think I pulled something at school today.  After school I got to King Tiger and did my stuff, and Carter and I ran a mile.  Then I had to go and wait with my mom while my brother had a boy scout meeting at church then we went home had dinner and went to bed!  PS sorry it was short tonight I am super tired!! 

Good evening, everyone! Today was a long day. I went to school in the morning, but thankfully, there was a 2-hour delay, leaving me extra time to sleep. After the school day was finished, I had to attend a club meeting, then finally headed back home. I was planning on taking a quick nap but did not get the chance to. I headed straight to Tae Kwon Do for my first official day of work. Today, I tried implementing my requirements into the small group lessons to make sure that I could get some time in as well. I just got back home and had dinner, and I have a lot of work ahead of me. I need to finish my math homework for the day, and then I will head to sleep. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Today I woke up, looked outside and there was no snow left. I went downstairs and I spent the morning doing my math home and dreading my life. When I finally left I almsost missed my bus, of course, but I got on the bus at the LAST second. I was immediately bombarded with not one but two test which I did decent on both of them. Then I spent the last 30 minutes of math class staring at the clock waiting for the hand to hit 4:10 which was defintely not 30 minutes it felt like an eon. After I got back home I went on a bike ride from through cornelius and then to dinner and La Unica. I went to King Tiger after and I was dying inside because I was helping out with class but its been so long, so i forgot everything. I somehow ended up...

This morning, I had to deal with some ice that remained on my run path while I was going for my run.  For part of the run, I wasn't so much running as I was hopelessly sliding on the icy pavement, with nothing I could really do to slow myself down.  Yesterday there was still snow everywhere, which reminded me of Macalester a bit. Snow is supposed to be rare.  It's supposed to be a special thing, something that happens not even once a year, maybe once every 3 years.  When it snows, everything stops.  Nobody goes anywhere.  School gets canceled.  Everyone goes outside all day to shovel driveways, slide down hills, or throw snowballs while it lasts.  It is, after all, a rare event to behold.  Then it quickly melts and everything goes back to normal.  At least that's how it was for my life while I was here. When I was...

First off, it was a very chill Sunday. No compalints about that, in fact I will gladly take more of those. But of course, every morning starts off with.....   POOMSAE CLASS! (the class that continues to give me more insecurities)   Today was more about finding a consistent tempo within our poomsaes, which also applies to performing poomsaes with others. I got the tempo of each combination of moves provided by the end, though I did feel like I was rushing a tad. Though after that, me and my family made the intelligent decision to get a certain sweet treat while it was fourty degrees outside.   SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM!   Ice cream :D. After struggling to keep my footing on the ice outside (because the sun is deciding to be lazy today), I entered the custard shop, Whit's! Of course it took me about fifteen minutes to...

Today I woke up and started playing some video games.  Then we had some breakfast and went to church.  When we got back from church we had some lunch and then I did all of my stuff for the day, like push ups, sit ups, jump rope and burpees, etc.  Then I played infinite craft. We will have dinner soon and then I will go to bed.

Good afternoon, everyone! Yesterday was a great day. I was unsure whether or not the website was open yesterday. I started out the day slowly getting back into the habit of doing my requirements. I don't think it is much of a change for me, and I feel that my body will get used to it by next week. I will start my requirements for the day in a bit. I am very excited to finish up my second cycle for my masters! Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Today was the first day of the black belt cycle, so I decided to get a good start with requirements early.  And by early, I mean right after midnight.  My sleep schedule is weird like that.  Anyway, this afternoon, once I was done with everything, I went to Ichibancon for the second time after I went on Thursday.  The events were different, and I got to see a cosplay competition.  The cosplays were all very detailed and impressive, and must take a lot of time.  I wish I could put together things like that.  Maybe next time I can get someone to go with me.  I usually don't have much time for anime conventions like this but there are some this summer that I plan on going to.

It's Graceyn once again back and ready for yet another cycle. Today was a pretty normal day. I woke up rather late. Got on my phone and talked with a few friends and played some games before I got straight to work. I did my requirements for the Saturday class credit and right as I was done I rushed to get ready. Today was my sisters birthday surprise, we went to go watch the Hamilton play live. After sitting down and watching very bright lights that burned my eyes for what felt like forever I got home and got my running out the way. I still have some things to do for tonight and then head straight to bed for the night. I hope everyone is ready for this amazing cycle and be prepared for the pre-testing next weekend... dun dun duuun... 😈😈😈   (Note) IT WAS FREEZING COLD OUTSIDE OH MY GOSH!!!  🥶🥶🥶

To think that it has only been a year since my first black belt cycle still has me questioning the reality of time. First off,   IT IS WAY TOO COLD!   Waking up to the roads malformed into frozen puddles made perfect for some not-so-happy accidents down on the highways is such a beautiful nightmare for any driver. The pretty white snow that has the ability to ruin any car in the hands of an irresposible driver. Luckily for me, this eventful Saturday truly does make up for the "storm" that occured the night before.   GET JEALOUS THEATRE NERDS!   I got the extremely grateful opportunity from my parents to to watch Charlotte's Off-Broadway production of Hamilton! The cast was very talented, and Lafeyette/Thomas Jefferson got the most laughs out of me. Eliza's vocals had me weeping in my obstructed chair as the very kind woman next to me...

🇸🇮So I got up and finished my mega cyborg hand🤖🤚 And then I had a late breakfast (like 10:00 late) And then later finished my Hagrid's Hut Lego And then Oliver broke my cyborg hand👿😡👿😡👿😭:⁠'⁠(  >⁠.⁠<  And then we had dinner which was coconut curry chicken🤢🤮🤮 And that's about it bye🇸🇮

Today is my mom's birthday. I got up this morning and played on my tablet. Mom mom and Pop Pop were here and then they left. I worked on building the cyborg hand I had for my birthday. Then we went to the Smiths for dinner and that's about it.

Today is my birthday. I had an awesome photo shoot for a newborn baptism. Then tonight we went to our friend's house for dinner and we're about to play games. What fun!

Today my parents were in town and we went geocaching and I had two photo sessions which went well. I have a long one tomorrow for a baptism which should be lovely! 👼💦🕍

So today Mom Mom and Pop Pop were here and I play Zelda in the morning and then we went to pickup my uncle's dog, Max, and then we went geocaching. We got Wendy's for lunch which was good. Then we went to Mass tonight and had tacos for dinner and I had a Minecraft cake for my birthday and that's about it. Goodnight. 

Today was supposed to be the tea ceremony but it was postponed. Such a bummer! Looking forward to a busy weekend with 5 hours worth of photo shoots!

So this morning I got up and had some breakfast and then Theo's eye started hurting him because it was already swollen from yesterday. I'm not sure if I did a journal yesterday. Okay anyway, nobody's going to be reading this for sure but we called the doctor And the doctor got a prescription that was like eye drops 👁️💦 which we got before movie night started cuz this is Friday and one of my presents actually came late So I got that like late today And it was actually a Wii Zelda game which is kind of cool. So anyway, I played it before we started the movie and it's actually pretty cool. I kind of like it. Anyway. That's about it

🇸🇮So today I got up and had a croissant for breakfast with Nutella🥐🥐🥐🥐🍫 But basically just sorted clothes. And we're actually like getting into the winter clothes. So we're sorting out all the summer clothes and going into the winter stuff So we got a bunch of stuff down from the attic and sorted it👚🧦🧥🧤🧣🎽 okay that's basically it. Bye 🇸🇮

So today was my birthday. I got up this morning and opened some presents. I got a Harry Potter Lego and some books and I'm really excited about getting a starter kit for dungeons& dragons. Then we went geocaching we got Chick-fil-A for lunch and we went to the airport overlook. Then we went to mass tonight and I went to Fraternus. They sung to me and it was awkward .My mom and I finished watching iron Man before I went to bed. Good night! 

Today was Henry's birthday! I can't believe he's 12!! We had a fun day geocaching.

today I went to school and played flag football and basketball. Then I went to after-school and got taught a lesson. Then I went to tkd and went as a white belt, and it was an interesting experience.

🇸🇮 So today I got up and had breakfast and basically just laid around playing so yeah And it's actually my birthday tomorrow🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🧁🧁🧁🧁 So yeah That's basically the highlight of the day my brothers went to taekwondo (I didn't because it's a couple days after cycle ended so yeah and they worked on poomsaes And we broke out the telescope 🔭 but that's about it bye🇸🇮

Today is Master Marcus and Master Natasya's first anniversary!!  We had a lovely day at home today doing school, baking bread, and working on Handicrafts. 

Today I learned about construction. I also learned about the different career paths I could take and what would be best for me, and most benefital for me.

So today I got up went to chess club and I beat my friend Joseph and stalemated my friend Joshua, although it was actually a very close call♟️♟️♟️♟️♟️♟️♟️♟️

Today I feel more rested and my wrist is no longer sore. Huzzah. I worked this AM and then Henry and Oliver went to chess club tonight while Theo and I went to the park. I worked on my hand embroidery, which I'm loving! Making Christmas ornament gifts with this skill! 

It's over.  We're done.  Hopefully everyone did well and passed.  The mat during the Tea Ceremony is going to be crowded, though, that's for certain. This Cycle was so different from the rest.  While I did, occasionally, question my sanity for signing up to do this all over again, I never actually found myself wanting to quit.  Both times before I had to remind myself, "Always finish what you start," in order to push through.  This Cycle was also full of injuries.  I sprained my ankle before it even started and that prevented me from getting back into sparring class prior to the start in July.  Then I damaged my finger in sparring class during Week 2.  Gabe tried to adjust her roll during Friday night's testing to avoid rolling into someone - and hurt herself in the process.  (For everyone following along at home, she's mostly fine.  Nothing is broken...

Yesterday was the public test and I broke 2 bricks. Then I went to the after party and that was very fun and the food was good too. Then I went to my friends house and played games and had fun.

Finally done with all of the glory, work, crap, and tears of the cycle. I had such a good time at the open testing, finally rested up. I have a bruised hand (brick break), bruised leg (thanks Abraham), and a bruised side. See you all on the 11.

I'm still in shock. Last night and this morning was overnight testing. Then we had public testing today.i didn't even realize we got to try to break a brick. Even moreso I had no idea I was capable to doing so. But I did. I broke a freaking brick.🤯🤯🤯 So glad we're done now though. Shew. 

Today was public testing and I broke my boards but not my brick. 😕My mom broke a brick. 😁😲😲 I'm so tired...😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴 Going to bed.😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 Goodnight.

Good evening, everyone! As the last day of this cycle finally comes, it feels so abnormal. I know even though I am not testing tonight, I am super nervous, jittery, and excited for you all. I wish you all the best of luck, and I know you’ll do great! Congratulations for officially completing this cycle! Have a wonderful rest of your day and testing!!

🇸🇮So I got up and basically just practiced most of the time. Then later I took a nap for a few hours 😴😴😴and then we went to Chick-fil-A for dinner and then that's where we are now. Later we're going to go to a gas station to get snacks and stuff for the final test. And we're just gonna how that we don't fall asleep halfway through it. 😁😁😁😬😬😰😰🇸🇮

Today's the day!!!! I wasn't nervous but then took a nap this afternoon and woke up nervous. Henry and I are getting Chick-fil-A for dinner before picking up snacks and heading to KT.

Yes we have made it!😃 All we have left is tonight, Saturday, and the tea ceremony. I wish you all good luck tonight.  

Today I'm going to my overnight testing and I know all my stuff going into this so I hope it goes well. Also some of my friends are going to the testing tomorrow and want to see me break my brick and my board.

Today is the over night test, also known as the last stand. Try your best and bring everything from food water to, weapons and pain killers. It has been an honor being pushed with every student here taking the cycle these past 4ish months.

Hey guys, It's the big day and I'm 100% faithful that we will all pass and do excellent. Don't forget anything and keep practicing. I'll see everyone tonight. It was an honor doing cycle with everyone.

Day #83- 10/3/2024 Today I’m put finishing touches on my essay. Rest day before testing. Light stretching.

Final journal of cycle 1......   I'm 12 weeks of 24 weeks in on my Master's journey.  Yes, there was a time I wanted to give up, and it was early in the cycle. However,  I put my big girl dobok pants on and kept going.  I know more now than I did 12 weeks ago.  I'm going to continue my mentoring sessions do I'm ready in the spring.   I have 2 easier essays, and two more challenging essays left. I plan on getting my easier essays completed sooner rather than later.   Im also going g to continue to meetvwith my mentee.  To all those testing tonight.. work hard and impress your Master's! I'll see you tomorrow in Belmont.    Until the next cycle, this is LMP signing off. 

Update- I just had dinner which was french fries and hotdogs which were delicious. Goodbye

Like everyone else, I'm sure, I didn't have any requirements to check off today.  I finished up the last little bits of that yesterday so today was workout free and just reviewing as much as I could in the time I had after work. It's funny how the last couple of weeks I was ready to go and wanted to get testing over with.  Now that it's staring me in the face, it's unnerving even though I know that I know my required curriculum.  Now all that's left is to pack up everything I need for Friday night and maybe a little bit more review tomorrow.  And to get all my snacks and everything else together tomorrow as well.Get some sleep, everyone, and I'll see you tomorrow night at North Charlotte.

Hi King Tiger Family... it is the night before testing... I keep reviewing things through in my mind and ensure I remember things. I feel like I have prepped, but it never feels like you have done enough. I plan to practice a little tomorrow and just stay healthy. Eat and get energy up!!! Get ready to show all you learned and have some fun too. It is okay to enjoy this but take it seriously too. Have a great night. Get some rest.

Good evening, everyone! As the end of the cycle is approaching, I would like to say congratulations to everyone for all the hard work and effort that we put in this cycle. We all did amazing, for pushing through the toughest, surviving and overcoming bad days, triumphing over difficulties, and learning throughout this journey. Though this is only my audit cycle, I feel accomplished and ready for the next cycle. Congratulations everyone again and I hope you all the best of luck for the overnight testing. Have a wonderful day!

Today I woke up and did my requirements for taekwondo. Then I did my chores and school. My grandma got here and I did a bunch of science stuff with her.  Now I am done with the day GOOD NIGHT!!!

Today I slept in for a while then I got up and went to the dentist.  At the dentist I got my teeth cleaned and had no cavities. After that I went downstairs to see the orthodontist. I will need Invisalign but will only have to wear them for about a year or so.  Then I came home.  I worked on some requirements and then went to class and sparring.    Going to head to bed early tonight.  

Tomorrow is the overnight testing and i am a little bit anxious. I am still excited though because it is the big day. technically night but whatever. I am also going to a bonfire on saturday with my youth group. it will be good because my youth pastors dad has a farm and we will be playing manhunt on the entire property. also there will be a hayride and pizza. goodnight.

🇸🇮So today is The last day before black belt testing which I'm very nervous for😰😬😬😬😰 But I think that I can get through it. And honestly I think at this point I'm just ready to get it over with and so today there was this practice session thing at King Tiger (obviously) But then later we went to class and I worked on my board break a lot. I think I'm getting pretty good. I Didn't quite break the practice board ಠ⁠︵⁠ಠ But I think I might be able to break it at testing So I feel pretty confident, although I know I shouldn't But anyway, that's about it bye🇸🇮

Today I woke up early at 3:30 then I watched some YouTube videos then played some games ate lunch then took a class and did a extra mentor session then I ate dinner then did some kicking defenses and good luck to everyone testing tomorrow. Good night everyone 😴💤.

Today we went to King tiger to practice a bunch of stuff this afternoon which was really helpful! Thank you to Instructor Jen for her great feedback and tips. Tomorrow is the big day!!!!!!!!!!

Today I woke up went to school and had a pretty decent day. Im off to taekwondo about to be 100% ready for tomorrow.

Just wanted to say good luck everyone! See you Friday night at North Charlotte!

Today I woke up and went to school. It was the same as any other day and we did not really do much. After that I went to baseball then home where I went to work and went out to dinner because of Callen’s birthday

Good evening, everyone! Yesterday was a nice day. I wasn’t able to get my journal in yesterday, but all good since I made it up today. Today, had a lot of fun at school. This week is our HOCO spirit week, and we were able to dress up per the day. Monday was Country vs Country Club day, yesterday was Y2K, and today was White Lies. I finished all my requirements for the day, but not much to do now. I have myself mentally prepared and ready for the weeks ahead. Have a wonderful day!

Today we had co-op and then Henry had Fraternus this evening. Looking forward to lots of practice tomorrow for testing on Friday!!

today was BBC at Grand master Evins's Dojang. on Thursday and maybe Friday there is going to be an extra practice session yay.

Today I went to school and had my benchmarks which is a big test, hopefully I got a good score. I also finished my mentor sessions today.

Today I am at my grandparents house. Tomorrow I have an e-learning day “Hooray”. This is my last journal hurrah. I didn’t go to taekwondo today because straight after school I went to my grandparents Lakehouse. See you later.🥋

I went to school then played some games then watched some YouTube then I went to taekwondo then got a dessert. Good night 

I got free money this am for my Amazon shift because there were no more routes. This is always a great start to the day. I was back home and in bed by 4am. I had a mentoring session with my mentee tonite, and I'm still taking it a little easy because of my back. Hopefully I will be up to full speed tomorrow.

Day #82 - 10/2/2024 Still stretching and keeping fit. Ran another quick 3 miles, probably the last one before testing this Friday. Still putting the final touches into my essay.

Day #81 - 10/1/2024 I bounced back into workout mode, stretching and completing calisthenics. Ran a quick 3 mile, then went in early to class for some mentor/mentee and leadership sessions.

Day #80 - 9/30/2024 Got some rest today as I started putting finishing touches on my essay. Went in for a dental procedure earlier.

Day #79 - 9/29/2024 Didn’t miss Sunday mentorship session this week. Went in and demonstrated my special form for auditing, got some nice feedback! We then practiced staff forms.

Day #78 - 9/28/2024 Testing day! Woke up early and arrived at the track at 5minutes past 6am. Went straight into jugging mode and finished at 6:35am. Drive to school and completed the physical and written tests. Went directly into the normal weekend training afterwards. Phew!

Day #77 - 9/27/2024 Friday sparring day. We had some fun doing rotation sparring, literarily on the pillars like Shaolin monks do in their training. Only we used kicking pads as pillars, and the normal class may as the lava.

Day #76 - 9/26/2024 Got plenty of rest today, and plenty of stretching.

I went to King Tiger to help with class and practice my forms with the full mat. Creative form is completely finish! I'm excited to finish testing. 

Today was good because i got 100 on 3 quizzes and i had my favorite chips for lunch. After school i chilled until it was time for trail life where we worked on the first aid badge. Then i went home and i had ramen for dinner. goodnight.

Today I woke up and went to school.  It was the same stuff as usual.  After school I had baseball.   Where I was working in the outfield.   They had a machine throwing as fast as it could go. They had us running from the infield to the outfield fence.   We had to do that for an hour.   Then I was dispose to have a baseball camp in Charlotte but the other team did not show up.  We ended up having a practice instead.  Lots of baseball today.  

Today I had after-school and played games and then played basketball. Then I went to tkd and got 2 credits. Then I got home and did my stuff. Now I'm going to sleep.

I went to school then I took a class then did a mentee session then I played some games then ate dinner watched some Yt after eating good night everyone 😴🌙.

Today I worked and cleaned. I also put up Halloween decorations. My back is getting better, but still onjured, so I'm still being very careful. 

Today was my first day back at school for our two day school week, there was a storm on Monday and Thursday and Friday are teacher workdays so only Tuesday and Wednesday are school this week

Today I did my last class assistance. I got to work with the white belts which was lots of fun. I love using Master knights tips to do kwon sool different ways. We did it on slow motion and super fast, which they loved.

Good evening everyone I just got my written test score back I got a good score and passes, Not bad for a 1st timer. I'm proud of my self.

why does the cycle have to be soo long because it just means there is more time to forget some parts of your poomsaes and other stuff.

Today was a normal day at school.  I was so happy to find out I got a 107 on my math test yesterday.  I can't wait for testing this week.  See everyone Friday!

I did decently on the final written and physical exam. Today, I woke up, went to school, and came home. After coming home, I got a mentee and mentor session done. After that, I finished my homework and realized that I still had one more journal to make, and that day 77 was not the last journal. This is the last journal I am writing. Prepare for the black belt test and I wish you all the best of luck. Have a good night.

Today was pretty good. I woke up and went to school unlike some schools. But school wasn't bad and we did a lot of stuff. We played capture the flag in PE which was good but my team had horrible defense. After school I played video games until I had to go to tkd which was good and I worked on boch special to get better at it, because master evins said I needed a little bit of work on it. But today was good overall. Goodbye

Today I woke up and played some games with Callen and we had to work together but Callen wasn’t very good at following directions and was always making us restart but after we completed around two levels we were asked to air rate and put down grass seed so we did that for a while until I had to go to work where I helped with two classes then I had to go give some supplies to my grand dad and my aunt but we got stuck in traffic and it took for ever to get there but we are heading home now

today i went outside and played basketball with my friends. then we played bean boozle and i got all the bad flavors. then i dunked on one of my friends and they caught it on camera. now im going to sleep.
