Today was a boring day. We had to change out our summer clothes with our fall and winter clothes. I don't like doing that because it takes forever. At least I have scouts tonight and that is always fun.

Did 8 miles on Sunday. Only 1 month left until the half marathon in Savannah. I am still running sooooooo slowly. Did a consistent 13 minute miles for the first 7 miles, then ended up stopping to talk to a neighbor....so the last mile was even slower, and I was so ready to be home! It was a beautiful day though! Getting excited about testing....soooo close!

Today I went mute. It was super hard. I really wanted to talk. I can't wait till I get to talk tommrow.

I couldnt talk all day as apart of my requirement for disability and I got really frustrated not being able to speak

today I went silent and it was hard because I want to say some thing so bad

Today I went to church in the morning. Then later I went and got my costume for Halloween. Then later after that I went and got my bush.

Was very tired today.  My aunt and uncle left today so the house is a lot more quiet.  I practiced my higher level poomsaes to go over tomorrow.

Today I watched movies most the day with my parents and rode my bike, and I flew a kite with my friend catherine. I had a little bit of fun today being able to hang out with my family and friends.

I sang in church this morning and went to choir practice tonight. I was able to get my workout in today and had a little extra time to watch football.

Can you say cool. Had to brake out my hoodie and lite jacket and my beanie for work today. Even my early morning walk was a little tough today. The cold weather was getting to my joints.

Today i wrote a ton of essays so i only have two left: Who is Your Role Model and Why?, and my Community Service essay. I also ran 1.25 miles so that puts me down to 2.75 miles left. YAY!!

Down for the count - -it's not the change in the weather - -in bed all day today with whatever this crud is. Not good - - -Sunday's are my productive day where the domestic duties get caught up and at least a few hours of requirements. Got up before 6:00 to get his tailgate food ready then it was straight back to bed, never left the house all day. Just got enough ambition to put a load of laundry in but think that will be the extent of it. Maybe will feel better tonight and can at least get some stretching/meditation done. What a wasted day- - -not a happy camper.

It's sunday!!! My favorite show comes on tonight and I am so excited. Today I got to hang out with my grandma. We played rumicube, watched tv, and played on my iPad. It was a lot of fun.

I was finally able to catch up on my sleep from the past couple of days, since I slept relatively early last night! But I got up around 10 and then started my homework, which is basically what my day consists of, and working out!

im on work overload!!!! i have sooooooooooooooo much homework! :(

my mom, sister and I are filling in our written test, some are fairly easy, and some you have to think about. We are almost done though. Its lunch, so we are eating leftover pizza from last night. Its still pizza. We are also doing forms and requirments at intervals. My mom called her parents(they live in france, its a thing she does every sunday) I talked to my grandma about her childhood, because I chose to do her as my living hero. My sisters doing our grandpa. My grandma has an interesting childhood too. She spent it in Africa and Europe....Im almost done with my fourth essay....

Today is football Sunday and I have a lot of free time so i did two essays and depending on how today goes I may do my final one besides the community service.

Had a nice run in the morning. After that i was able to take class and have Master Evins tweak my poomsaes. Getting ready for this weekend this week.

I'm really stressed. Not only do I still have a few essays to do, and my community service, and my poomsaes. I decided to really work hard on my poomsaes, so I tried to do ten of each poomsae,but I only reached like number five once Chang, before going to bed. Life is sooooooo depressing. And same with this journal entry......

to day I ran a mile and it was easy and that is great for next week

It was a big struggle waking up this morning due to the fact I got no sleep last night! Last night, with my friends I brought along and parents, I had gone to an indian dancing event called Dandiya! It was really fun and I go every year. We were there very late last night and didn't get home till 2 am, and we were one the few who left early! After that night, I was very tired today but I was still able to go to black belt class and my two hour volunteer shift at CMC and then end the day with a relaxing night! I'm going to bed early tonight!!

Was very happy to end this week - -it was a long one. Had my lesson with Master Chin yesterday afternoon which I am always thankful for. Held off on the new Hapkido form but will start on that next week. Still feeling a little under the weather and did not want to pass it along. I truly just think it's the change in the weather - -well at least I hope it is just that. Chest still sore, worse in the morning, scratchy throat and fatigue. Had our neighborhood social last night and that was very nice. Took the "ladies of Leeds" with us and that is always a blast - - -if I make it to my 80's that is exactly how I would like to be - -they are a hoot. Looking forward to the tournament today then special birthday party tonight for Sian - - -another big...

Sore from martial fit last night...worrying about all the candidates. Hope everyone knows what they need to know! No over-night testing this time.....makes most people happy. I personally would rather stay up most of the night than wake up at 4 am, but I know that I am weird :}

Yesterday was my little brother's first birthday! It was very funny because he had no idea what he was supposed to do with his cupcake! He just sat their staring at it! It was fun. But i am also happy that i finished all my physical requirements except for my running and i only have 6 miles left. Yay!

For the past couple of days I have been reading on my dad's nook.  For some reason I have been attracted to it, and I have been reading it for all of my reading assignments for school, and most of my free time.

It was another early day , I had woken up at 6 am to finish some homework not done the previous night! I had to finish AP US History homework. After I went to school, i had to find a ride home because my dad took the car today because he needed it so i rode home with a friend. Today i was unable to go to Tae Kwon Do for my sparring class because there was so much traffic on 1-77 it was backed up from one exit away from me till my TKD school. So instead, i went home and did homework for today and i had extra time so it felt like a longer day!

Its been a tiring day today. This whole week I have gotten 5 hours of sleep each day and it had finally caught up to me today. Although i was extremely tired i had to push through and go to school, tae kwon doe and planet fitness which I accomplished all. However, i did have to skip my leadership 1 credit for the day because i was doing AP Calculus study group, which I didn't want to skip. After Tae Kwon doe though, i went to the airport to pick up my dad, coming in from Boston. And i finally conclude my day with my homework for the night!
