Today was the first day of school. It was very boring and a very long day. The first week is always boring.

today I had a physical doctor test thing because of my exchange student from last year we had to get tested for TB (Tuberculoses) also had to have I blood test and a bunch of other stuff

What a beautiful day it was today, the weather was perfect. I felt like Goldilocks ,it was just right. And the body felt good, I was able to take class to night.

Great black belt class tonight, thank you Master Chin. Major review of Pal Gwe Il, Yi & Sam now lets see if my brain can retain it or tomorrow will show the senior moment.

I am still really sore from the physical two days ago. I did well all except that I have to redo the written part.

Mondays, uug, today I did not want to get up for school but I did and I hade a good day at school and after school I ate at earth fare. after that I went to the park and did and essay and my requirements while my sister was in gymnastics.

Today was the 1st day of school. I got my running & half my requirements done before school then managed to get everything else done after class, take 3 classes and get a Mentee session in. It has been a good day.

Mon August 25Th. Today Was A Relaxing Day For Me. Most Of My Friends Went Back To School Today But I don't Start Until Next Week. I Got To Do A Lot Of Work On My Tae Kwon Do.

Yesterday I went to a Virginia Tech soccer game at Davidson College.  It was very exciting because my friends and I got a chance to be ball kids for the game.  The best part was being on the field, close to the players.  The Hokies won 4 - 0.

Today was my first day of school for me. It was weird getting up so early I just need to get used to the getting up like that :D.

Two days ago everybody took their pre-test. I did well except i have to re-do my written test.

My day today started off pretty late because I had woken up, not at my usual 9:30 am, but instead I got up at around 11:30 today. I had gone straight to the gym to finish my requirements after waking up. It wasn't an interesting day, I had finished some summer assignments and prepared for the first day of school tomorrow!

Today I went to see the new movie When The Game Stands Tall. It was all about football. It was such a great movie, I really enjoyed going with my mom and grandma. Later I mowed the lawn and got school supplies ready.

Yesterday we had our black belt pretest. And today my legs were sore. :-) So me and my brother went over red belt self defense as well as what we didn't know on the written test. Hopefully we'll get it next time.

really sore today from the kettle bell squats and triceps biceps and deltoid workout hamstrings are killing me and my quads are really hurting so I hope I get better

Today I did the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge because I was nominated by my friend Kat. The water was super cold. I was shaking for a few minutes after I did it. But it was fun and if I am nominated again I will do it.

Today I went to church then came home. I didn't feel like doing my exercises and it caused an argument with me & my mom but I eventually got over it and changed my attitude then everything went really well. My mom & I try to make it fun by timing my requirements and setting challenges. It was cool outside today and the wind was blowing so that made my running easier. I am excited about school tomorrow but know it is going to be really hard to get my requirements in with school, homework & taekwondo class so I am nervous. My plan is to get up really early and do some of my requirements before school.

tomorrow is the day I start the first day of middle school. I am so excited. im also very nervous.

I went to church this morning and then worked on one of my essays. I worked on my physical requirements.

Today was my first time babysitting my little brother with nobody home. I am really glad my parents trusted me. I have wanted them to trust me for a long time. I hope I get to do this again. My brother does too.

It has been non stop all day an with a lot of luck hope to have the house in order, along with dinner, before guests arrive. Yikes another 10 hours in the day would be really helpful along with the house and laundry fairy - -hey a girl can wish - - - -.

Today is my last day of Summer break I have been enjoying it as much as I can. I hope everyone else has been too.

i was very sweaty at the pre-test yesterday and did not get to go to the flea market. So this morning me and my dad went to the flea market and got a case for his phone. When we got home my grandmother did a ASL challenge and picked me to do it too so I was wet and cold. GGGGGGOOOOOOO ASL!!!!!!

Today was the pre-test and I am really relieved to have it behind me. Now it's time to focus on improving and being ready for the real test. After class & pre-test I went to Belmont to help Master Shin with abirthday party and had a lot of fun then as soon as the party was over I went shopping all night with my mom & sister. We took a day off from requirements to rest since I had the pre-test and we needed to go shopping. It has been a good day but I am tired.

Today was the black belt pretest. I think I did good on but it was hard.

Today Was The Pre Test For Our Black Belt Cycle. My Favorite Part Was The Running. It Was Harder Than I Thought It Would Be!

So today was the pre test congratulations to everyone for completing it and good luck to you on the rest of the cycle it WILL be hard but we'll pull through all you have to do is push your self beyond the limits work till your dripping sweat or tears thats what I do i go out side or to the gym and say I'm going to work till I'm half dead then that will be my beginning. Now to the motivational part...There was a young man who wanted so badly to be successful so he went to this guru and said I want to be successful like you, so the guru said "ok meet me at the beach tomorrow." So the man went to the beach at 4:00 AM he went in a suit, The guru was standing out in the water and he said "come into the water." so...

What a great day seeing everyone at pre test and all did awesome!! Some body parts just keep snapping, crackling, popping and saying hey what are you doing to me. After this weekends other obligations will finally have some time freed up to focus more on cycle requirements. All is good!!!

i am so tired! the pre test was so tiring. it was king of challenging.

that pretest today was sweaty and stressing. that plank position left made me sweat.

Getting ready to head to north charlotte to do my pre test. I think I am ready. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I hope I do well.

today I did a lot of roll and I am getting the hang of it

Today was our closing program at summer camp. I got to do a mime dance to The Anthem. It was really good. Everyone really liked my classes dance. I had so much fun at summer camp this year. I can't wait until next summer. August 22, 2014

Feeling awesome today. Still a little tight on the neck but need to do my requirements. Talk to my goddaughter today , i will be doing a Cancer Walk in Sacramento with her and her sisters and her mom who is fighting cancer in October.

Today I was nominated by my friend to do the ice bucket challenge and now I'm cold and wet go ALS

today I went to black belt class and I learned what my self defence is. and I met with my metor. we woked on poomsaees.

Yes yes yes I can know turn my head to the left and almost to the right. The best part of today is I had my first meeting with two of my mentees. Not bad , I love doing this part of the cycle.

Have been away for a while and first class back tonight. Thanks Master Chin and Inst. Hsin I did my best to keep up but mind and body still mush and will take a few days to get back in motion. I know I am way behind but I will catch up- -guess I am use to challenges. Night all I am tired and desperate for some sleep.

Today we went to play laser tag during summer camp. Later during sparring we had class outside, which was really fun. But the problem of today is I had a cold all day.

Today was my first mentor session. It was fun in a way. I liked it. I can't wait for the next one. I DON'T WANT TO WAIT A WHOLE WEEK!!!!

This is my last journal. I think I've changed a lot since the cycle began. Now doing my requirements goes along with eating, sleeping and breathing and comes naturally to me. I think I've gotten stronger because I've been able to shoot a basketball farther. I think I've become more responsible but I'm not as responsible as I can be all the time.

Today was a good day. Got all of my requirements done and a little extra. Pretty happy. just so u guys know, my school started on the 14th, so i am juggling homework and requirements + instruments. >~

Thurs August 21, 2014. I Had A Great Day At Camp Today. It Was Crazy Sock Day. My Socks Were Funny!

Today I'm doing research on jumprope exercise it turns out that if you do it right it can build muscle, and burn more calories than running so I guess if you jump rope while running you will burn ALOT of calories

Today my brother was doing soo many rolls we ended up doing a competition "who could role the most". I didn't exactly win. Oh well failing is just another reason to try harder. I shall win!!!!!!

today I did a walk the dog and I learned not to put him in water. and now he smells.

It was 6:30 am when my day had started; I had to get up for my 7:30 psychology class at Mitchell community college! It was another good class and ended a little early! After class, with my two friends, I went to the north lake mall for some back to school shopping! It was quite successful with many sales! I then went to the gym and finished my requirements and after went straight to my TKD class at 7, where I realized I needed to practice on my rolls.. a lot!!

Feeling better today. If you run a business remember customer service, customer service, customer service. Went to two different businesses this week, one use to be a big name, now I know why they are losing business. The second one was a small business ,they won't have my business again.And they are going to eat the cost of what i ordered for them. Went on line and will have my part in two days. Waited for a week and then was told they may have to back order it, someone forgot to do their job.

Today I went over to my friends house. Then I went to my school and help my mom. then when I got home I finished up my requirements.

Today I practiced timing my pretest requirements and running again and got every accomplished again so I am starting to feel better about the pretest on Saturday. This afternoon I only took 1 taekwondo class because I have church but I did get a mentee session.

I'm kind of nervous about the test on Saturday. I need to practice pushups, v situps and situps. I feel like I'm going to do okay with the curriculum.

Yesterday I tried out for soccer. I made the first cut. One kid in my grade did not make it. I felt really bad for him. I can't wait for the next cut and I really hope I make it.

Wednesday August 20, 2014 Today I got to hang out with some friends I have not seen in a while and later I will be going to Tae Kwon Do in Mint Hill to practice for Saturday.

Today I ran 4 miles down to the pier at the beach it was kinda hard sience the sand makes your heal lower than your toes but its better for your posture its 10:39 and im realy tired from my requirements. See ya

Today in BBC I learnt that I have been doing a self defense completely wrong. Though the good news is that I found out before the black belt pre test, so hopefully I wont make that mistake there. Then at the family class I had my first white belt challenge day and it wasn't exactly the same as I thought. (I thought I was just going to keep doing bochadon stuff and the only difference was I had to line up in the back) But it was different, all I could work on was white belt things. Don't get me wrong I really enjoyed pretending to be white belt all over again, I just didn't think that is what was going to happen. :-)

today I worked on self defense and I did really good exempt green belt that is tough for me because I did not pratice

Stuff I have not use in a long time, found their way to me today. Tiger balm , all day pain relief, heating pad. Will see what tomorrow will bring. Sunshine and a happy man.

It was quite a fast day for me today! It started with a morning workout at planet fitness where I finished most of my requirements. After that I went straight to Panera to work on AP English summer assignment, we were told to do, with my friends. I also had to read In Cold Blood by Truman Capote. The day ended with a PMAA class,where I learned palice and other techniques!!

Today was a really good day. I got up very early & started my running. My mom timed me today so I could make sure I could meet the pre-test requirements then we worked on all of my other exercises and pre-test items before she went to work. I really enjoy the challenge of being timed and it feels good to know I am able to do what is required for the test. This afternoon I took 2 regular taekwondo classes and got another leadership credit then we had black belt class. I got a hyper pro class, weekday black belt class and we had our 1st mentor meeting so I got a lot accomplished.

today was fun, I worked on every thing I would do in the pre-test and studyed my study guide.I went to 1 class in belmont today and got a mentor session during the black belt class.yay! I also got all my hyper classes done! :)

so today I feel kind of bad because I have not done any journals in a while so now I am doing one. today was my second day of school and I think that it went well then I got some school stuff and then I went to TKD and that was fun I did a mentor meting, hyper class, and a black belt class then I came home and ate dinner and went to bed.

Today I woke up and went to the Ymca. Then I went home so I could get my requirements done. I also got a black belt class, a hyper pro and a mentor session.

Today I went to the dentist and then I went to summer camp. At summer camp we got to watch a movie and play lots of fun games. We will be working on a closing program where I will be dancing.

I started my day going to my first class of school of the year, bright at early at 7am! It was at Mitchell community college; I am taking psychology through my school at a college credit. I really enjoyed that class and teacher. After class I got to finish my requirements and really push myself!! i ended my day, after TKD class, by doing the ALS ice bucket challenge, that I got nominated to do; it was both exciting and cold!

So dose any one know were I can buy a new body. This one seems not to be working for me sometimes. Oh well I guess I have to live with this one.

As I do my stuff it gets easier and easier miles get shorter push ups sit ups 

Today in we class we were prepping for the Pre-Test on Saturday. Master Chelly said all of our stuff looked great!

I got my requirements done without being distracted today. I'm very proud of myself because I haven't been able to do that lately. I think I need to work on doing my jump rope a lot more because I keep tripping. I also need to work on doing my burpees in a minute.

Today I got up extra early and got all of my requirements done because I was going to go to Youth fun day at church but then decided not to go because of the weather. This afternoon I went to taekwondo & took 3 classes then after class I practiced everything on the physical test. I did good & accomplished all of the challenges. Excited about our 1st team mentor meeting tomorrow & the pretest on Saturday. I also had a good day with my popcorn fundraiser so that felt great. I had a good day. Now I am going to study for the written test until I go to bed.

Today was a pretty good day.....I had my first homework assignment today I had to complete. It was very easy, but still hard. It was Social Studies homework today and we were learning about the Renaissance. It was very learning about it...Then in science we had some cool scientific equation!!!! That was all my day.....

Today was really good because I got most of my requirements done in class. I am super busy now that school has started, and barley have any time for my requirements.

Today I was going to try out for soccer, but it didn't go too well. I didn't have my physical. We found one, but in the middle of practice we found out that it was expired. I could try out and it will impact whether or not I make the team. I hope I make it.

today i got hit in my braces and it hurt so bad. they hurt but it will be worth it in ten years

today I did a lot of push ups and I walked my dog. my do is hard to take care of because I walk him and fed him.

Today Master Burkart helped me get ready for the pre test on Saturday. I think I am ready. To make sure he is going to review it again with me on Wednesday. Hope I am ready.

Today my friends came over they did some exercises with me.They just left but I will see then again.

Today I get to stay home all day because I start school in 2 days and can't go to summer camp.                                                                                                        

As many people know the pre test for black belt has been moved up a week which makes me nervous cause I thought I had plenty of time to practice well not anymore

I went to church this morning so I had to start my exercises much later in the day and it was really hot so my running was harder. My mom is timing me on my running, push up and sit-ups so it helps to motivate me & makes it more fun. I focus a lot on the quality of my requirements today then I spent some time studying my study guide since I didn't have class today. Then I went and played with my friends for a while and came back home to help my mom with a bunch of extra stuff, do meditation and eat dinner. After dinner I went and played again for a while then I am going to watch the Panther's preseason game tonight. We have slip & slide, fun day tomorrow with youth so I have to get up really early to get my requirements done...

Yesterday was one in a million days. I can not recall the last time I attended a Saturday Black belt class. I must say it was awesome. To see some many young kids that are striving to better themselves. This is what KingTiger is as all about. Thank you Grandmaster Jung.

I wish I could log into this site with my ipad. I have to borrow my mom's PC to make journal entries.Today i did requirements and played minecraft with my friends

Today I had to get a haircut.  My barber messed up and I hate my cut.:(

Today I really didn't have a lot of things to do. But my dad watched Frozen with me and my mom. My dad liked the movie. I really don't have a lot more to say. :D

I got up at 7:30 to get my requirements done. Then we went to the store. After that I went to basketball practice.

Today i went to a Saturday black belt class and did some of my requirements. I went to a picnic this afternoon that my king tiger school was holding. I did a lot of chores too. So it has been a pretty busy day but I've done a lot of stuff.

Today i succesfully ran a 5k with my mom. I got all of my requirements done and i dusted off the high red poomse

My first weekend black belt class was a very good experience and was really fun! I liked that the class was very big compared to the normal size. I also got to go to the sparring class right after and I've started to enjoy sparring, when previously I didn't as much! After these classes, I finished my requirements for the day!

yesterday all black belt cycle people from belmont did a parents night out mini olmpics and had a total of 14 kids show up.Everyone had lots of fun that night and everybody listened to us so it was easy and FUN!
