Today was good. We had our 2K test in rowing today. 7.17.4 I've heard that's pretty good for my age, but there is always room to improve. I am also noticing an increase of muscle mass in my chest, thank you ~5,000 push ups! (and counting)
Not that bad of a workout tonight in class, but still feeling physically drained still, but still getting done what needs to be done
Today I practice attaking and defense with the staff did staff form one. I meet someone new in class he's name was zerodo I don't know buy he's new in taekwon do durring class we practice self defense Bo cha don I also took hyper with swords
Today I had my first day of the white belt challenge. It was ok, I like being a black belt better because you can do more stuff. I thought it was kind if boring to do the same thing over and over again. It is nice to be a black belt because you can do more things. It was weird being in the back of the line. Also , I got a leadership 1 credit in and a meter session in. I had a great day and I hope you did to. See you guys tomorrow.
I had a great day until at the end of the day when I got kneed me in the jaw. And then my dad broke his toe.

Today was my first day of the White Belt Challenge, I hated it, it was very boring; I think I thought that because I am so far along and doing all of the White Belt stuff is very easy and I find it hard to understand why it took me a hour and fifteen minutes to work on white belt stuff when I first started. It did definitely feel different; it felt weird "starting all over" and being a white belt, I could not really do anything throughout the whole class because of it. I remember 1st starting, and not knowing anything, and now I really realize how far I have gotten in Taekwondo and how much I have accomplished! Knowing how much I have accomplished in my life makes me want to keep working hard and work harder to achieve more goals! I LOVE Taekwondo and I have high confidence...
Everyday is a new day and ever day we get closer and closer to black belt testing. I am looking forward to it.
Today is school after one whole week. It was difficult getting up at 5am to do my run but somehow managed to drag myself out of bed and do the run. Just came back from my morning run with dad. Getting ready for school. Time flies. Its 6.30am and i have very little time before bus comes. Bye
Feeling a little stronger today. A boiled eggs and toast... does wonders.I've tried to do a little extra on requirements today, not trying to overexert, but so badly need to catch up. Looking forward to Instructors Camp!Hope all are well
Today I had and still have plenty of work to do. I have a couple tests tomorrow and I have to prepare.
Had a good long weekend this past weekend, went to a good black belt class this past saturday, did self defenses from neutral stance on saturday, which is really hard but looks like i found something i really need to work on haha. Still got my requirements done this weekend as well
I forgot to do my journal yesterday(I am still in the green) but I do not like missing a day on journals. Yesterday I had s great day. I went to black belt class and sparring. After that we went home and then my sister's friends dad got a promotion and invited us over for dinner. I had a salad with grilled chicken in it. It was really good. When we got home I watched dolphin tale 2. It was a really good movie and you guys should watch it. I also watched 1000 to 1 last week which was also a good movie. Today I did my homework and exercises. I also watched dawn of the planet of the apes. That was a good movie too. Whenever I watch a movie I am doing my exercises at the same time. See you guys tomorrow.
I got up a little late today which did not make me happy, but I did get a lot of rest! Soon after I got downstairs I ate and then started to do my exercises, I got a lot done and then I had to take a break and finish my homework, then I had to go to church and then a class, and now I am going to finish my exercises! I am a little worried, because I think I accidentally left my Black Belt notebook at Master Evins school, and I am very worried that I won't be able to get it back before class tomorrow. My mom said that she would go and get it if it is there but I don't know when that would be. Next time I will be more careful! I had to do a few extra things to do, and I set it...
I had a great day today but still have a very hard project. My life is good and i'm looking forward to being a black belt.
Trying to get back into my requirement routine after sickness, being with my friend, and snow days. Had to work today for 9 hours, but I'll be working on requirements after dinner.
Today I am having a lazy day and it is really hard to even make these journal today
Yesterday had a good Black Belt Class and Sparring class. I am definitely understanding the variations in sparring and what I need to work on. I am ready for school next week. Our make up days are now in March during our spring break.
Hello good day today. I'm currently working on poomsaes with my sisters, no time to waste.
I had a great day went to black belt class and still went to my cousin Christian's birthday party. I am back home and ready for another day.

Today I went to Taekwondo and then I went to Sparring Class. I really think that I am getting better at sparring, and I am learning a bunch of new things, that are fun to practice against an opponent to try and improve my skills. I hope that everyone had a great day. I hope that everyone has been keeping up with your exercises.
Made it through both the Black Belt class AND sparring class today. YEAH! I am pretty tired though. Going to read a little of my book and call it a night.
Dealing with a very sore throat I throttled it down a little today. I attended BB & Sparring Classes but did not run. I did bump up my requirements a little when I got home.
Yesterday I left my book at school and I hope they will sigh a peace of paper. But I did not mean to take it to school.

If I was a superhero, I think my name today would be "Super Sore!" Haha. But, seriously. Some days are easier than others, and this cold weather definitely isn't helping. Being sore though, I know I am pushing myself. I've been really hammering down some of the forms we don't get a chance to practice that often (attack/defense form, staff, etc...) Instructor's Camp is next weekend! Definitely looking forward to it. Hopefully, I will be able to knock out some requirements with that as well!
Yesterday was another good day. I finished all my requirements by mid-day (No School again yesterday). Then I played with my sister for a while before i went for my swimming class in the evening. I had a great class yesterday and per our normal schedule we end class with a medley race. We had to do 250 mts (10 laps) with breaststroke, butterfly, back stoke and freestyle. As soon as the race started all my other friends swam really fast. I swam at a decent pace as i knew i had to keep going for 10 laps. My friends got exhausted by the 3rd lap. I started swimming fast after lap 7 and the final lap i made a sprint to the finish. I was done way before my friends could finish. My Master was very proud of me. I am working very hard as I really want to be...
Today we had fun running the pacer test where you run up and down the gym and I got 35 highest of the class. I hated when we did a test you have to wait until your classmates are done. I was playing soccer and beat my dad
Today was fully of tae kwon do stuff. Once I got home, I ran 2 miles but there was this one patch of sidewalk which was iced for about 20m. Then I went to class and my little sisters forced me to do a bunch of stuff afterwards. I don't enjoy doing poomsaes at home more than at class. At home it feels kinda cramped bc of the furniture and in class, my Masters and Instructors are there to correct me if I forget something, which I really appreciate. :)
My day was good. But I have some home work. And I am going to working on my project. I hope everybody is up the requirement.
Tonight, even with it being really cold, I still got my daily requirements done tonight. Still trying my best in everything . Black Belt Strong!
I am still doing good on my exercises, but I hope that soon I will be able to have one day off a week, from doing exercises. I am excited for black belt class tomorrow and I can't wait to continue working on our Bocho Dan stuff. I hope that everyone had a great day. I hope that everyone has been keeping up with your exercises!
so... I wonder If not cussing and individual at the IRS out could be considered a RAOK. ???? on another note: reading my book, I liked this: ""But if you believe yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become an instrument of God, you help the Soul of the World, and you understand why you are here." Paublo Coelho I did BB class and PMAA class both last night. Slowly with the help of new meds beginning to get some solid foods in me. Still doing a lot of smoothies but I think they have been a huge help in getting through this bout. Feeling a little stronger.. Just trying to be like the little train that could. ... "I think I can, I think I can, I Think I can.".... My colors are not looking good, but I am in no way giving up....
I went to black belt class today. I got a lot of stuff in. I thought I was doing great but now I am in the red for mentor and mentee sessions and I am in the orange/yellow for leadership 1(helping out in class). I NEED to get caught up with that and I need to start on my essays. See you guys tomorrow.
Today we ate some food that was for Chinese new year that the class paid for a few weeks ago. It was good and I had fun. Comment about what you did today. Bye
Ok in my next life I want to be a Bird. By you say? Because when the cold weather comes I can fly further south. At 11degrees it is TO COLD! Lost the feelings in my fingers today and what would have taken me 15 minutes to do took me 45 minutes. It was COLD. But no a good note had a awesome time with my mente tonight.
I had a great black belt class today and worked on a lot of stuff. I also got a lot of stuff done.
The is cold, gives you a cold or a stuffy nose and is not at all great to do a 2 mile run in.
Its another cold day today. The Cabarrus schools are closed today as well. We did not have school the whole week but we have make up day tomorrow. I am hoping that it will be cancelled tomorrow and i can come for Black Belt Class and Sparring class. The good thing about the schools being closed is that I have slept a lot and feeling a lot better now physically. I have been pulling off a lot of requirements as well. Stay Warm!!!
I had a very enjoyable Thursday. Work and Taekwondo both went very well.
Eh busy day today. Rowing plus TKD. Sitting here, doing homework and working in requirements in-between
I am still a little tired, but it is better. I am still doing good and keeping up with my exercises! I hope that everyone had a great day! I hope that everyone has been keeping up with everything?! Stay strong.
I took sparring today. I only got 5 sparring rounds in but I still learned something new. I had a great day. I had a 2 hour delay but it seemed as long as a regular day. I have another 2 hour delay tomorrow. See you tomorrow.
Today my school had a 2 HOUR DELAY and tomorrow we have a TWO HOUR DELAY. What is your school doing tomorrow?
I had a hard time trying to spin the staff the right way but it dosent go the way I. I also helped out with a class and tried taking family class but I fell and I had to sit out. I also hated when I had to do staff self defeense
I had a great day and had a great sparring class. I also went to my friends house.
i did a very long work out that trailed through 2 classes. But it was worth it. I practices Basic Forms 1, 2, and 3 as well as Wang ho 1. I did 225 push ups and sit ups. It was a lot but i really liked it and i caught up a lot.
Well getting harder and harder to make things work, been really busy with my environmental job, actually the roof has come off it is so busy up till midnight trying to get things completed and still work out, I have not been to a training class in about 2 weeks due to the environmental work and having to make sure I still have a family. I have been working out and doing forms and self defense, staff and some stick forms. I have been also doing sword but have missed several classes and they want to test in March, ha I do not think that is going to happen. Anyway going to enter all me stuff today so do not think I did it in one day just the amount over the last couple of weeks.
We don't have school today as well. So it will be 1 week tomorrow since we went to school. I am feeling bored at home. I finish all my requirements by mid day and feel extremely bored. My sister and I played WII games for a while yesterday. I hope the weather gets warm and we go to school from tomorrow.
Today was a good day, I went to Taekwondo, and I learned a few new things! The only problem, was that I was very tired; everything crashed down on me from all the days of exercising today, and I did not feel like doing anything. I hope that everyone had a great day!
Had a good time in class tonight, at Belmont 4:30 Class which is Red Belt and Up Class, we did a few forms, then we did practicality of certain self defenses. I enjoy doing those because it helps me think of what i can do, if something doesnt go the way like any of our color belt self defenses work. It makes you think of other things :)
Good day. Did a bunch of stuff. I have to do more poomsaes and such.
I had a very good day today and got a lot of stuff in for the cycle. And I learned that my school hasn't opened for three days.
It was hard doing pull ups you have to use the upper body I did my first pull up and did ten by myself. I had most of the help from my dad. I am exited to go to school beacuse I get to see my friends. I also hated when I had to do 20 of blue and higher poomsae.
I had a good day today. Although we had a delayed start to morning classes because of the weather my Latin Cuisine produced some wonderful food. Then the Optician told me that my eye is completely healed and I am cleared for my eye exam. Then the weather cleared & stayed just warm enough for my run. Finally, we had some really good sessions/classes through the afternoon at King Tiger LKN.
I may sound like i'm advertising or something but just note this: i'm not. If you think naps are helpful try being me. Scratch that don't try to be me! After a nap the results can be good or bad. For me, it's almost always bad.
Tomorrow there is a school dance and I don't know what to do. Please give me a idea of what to do please.
A challenging week so far with snow and ice! I would say that it will get better, but it may actually get worse tonight. Had a great mentor session & small class this morning. Worked on a new staff form, and got a chance to practice some forms I haven't done in awhile. Also, practiced some cool self defense techniques against Master Hartle. May be able to sneak another mentee session in tonight with Jay Jay (depending on this crazy weather).
I am sad again. School was canceled and that is even more work and days we have to make up. I am only happy because I can still focus on Tae Kwon Do. See you guys later.
We don't have school again today. We have make up day on Saturday (Feb 21) and i am not happy at all. I will miss my Saturday Black Belt Class and Sparring. Not sure why they cancelled school today. I did not do my run yesterday but will go to do my run in the gym today. I did a lot of sparring rounds and pull ups and jump ropes yesterday. I feel good and planning to do the same today as well. I have caught up with my essays as well and waiting for Miss Evins to send the Drop Box for me to upload those.
Business trip to Vegas for 3 days means taking one day for muscle recovery. Ugh. Now only have one scheduled trip between now and testing. For me, routine is the key to training.
With tonight, Even though we had a sleet/snow/ freezing rain mixture, i still went to class tonight and worked out, and did some of my requirements tonight. Only A little Bit Longer to go: )
I hade a good day. I will rather have snow then ice. I really do not like ice. last year my dad and I was seeing how will have brace the ice first and that was fun.
Hello, good day. I cleared the driveway with my little sister which look a couple hours. Then I did push ups, sit ups, kicks and a few poomsaes and self defenses.
I am not a big winter weather fan... just saying. I live in the South For a reason!YES ! we really did 520 kicks on Monday. The last class of the day was cancelled because of this bad weather so maybe Master Shin just wanted to get all the kicks for the day in. :-) and I had already done 100. My legs are a little sore today, but that actually feels good because it means I'm doing and I definitely needed the numbers, and I'm thrilled that I am feeling a little stronger than yesterday. I am still running primarily on some awesome smoothies, but am slowly introducing solid food. This bout has been a rough one!I spent a good deal of time last night going over the test questions. I still have answers I need to find. Since school is already cancelled for tomorrow, and we are still having...
Today I practice doing pull ups it hard so I did push ups to help me but I did 1 only I felt proud I did at least one. I loved playing my favorite games and it's snowing. I loved when I got a lot of money on my game called clash of lords 2. It really fun battling different people. I hated when I did 410 push ups beacuse my arms started to feel wiggle le
I had a very bad day today. I had a very bad day because the internet keeps going on and off.
I hope everyone is taking advantage of the snow day completing some requirements. It wasn't a great day for running, so I went for a 3 mile walk in the neighborhood and on the greenway. Spent some quality time with the wife and daughter as well.
