I didn't really do much today. I helped cleaned around the house, and ran around with a swiffer on the wood floors simply because it was fun to do! I also prepared my bag for school tomorrow by cleaning it out and making sure it had everything I needed for school. I really just didn't do much today, but I guess thats okay

Journal for Sunday

Hello King Tiger! I know that everyone will be sleeping at this time(it is 7:57 am) but I woke up a bit early today and with me being sleepy, I saw that the clock on my wall and my alarm clock had different time than my smart watch clock. At first I thought it was a ghost or something that played with my clocks, but then I realized it is daylight saving time. So I fixed my alarm clock and I am doing my requirements now for yesterday and today. I calculated it and it shows 2 hours and 36 minutes. Yay :((((. I just started having stomach pain for some reason so I am taking breaks after each requirement. As far as I know, I will have to attend a zoom meeting competition with my friend at three and I guess he is coming to my before that to study....

Today, I decided to be mute because I knew I was going to LKN to help with Bags of Hope and I was going to want to talk.  I met KT's  Matthew B. and I really wanted to talk, but all I could do was give him the thumbs up and write a quick note.  I was successful until I got home and my dog met me at the door and I said HEY!  I realized that I goofed in that moment.  The rest of the day went fine.  I worked on requirements  and later realized I failed to enter my tracking on line for awhile, so I'm tapping away tonight.

3/9 Calm Wright.

Today I woke up at five in the morning to go do my written and physical test. I was all happy with my physical stuff But I was really happy to see I got a 93 on my written test! And I'm happy for everyone from getting this far in the cycle. We went back to Lake Norman and set up Bag Of Hope for the cycle and then I went home and too a long needed four hour nap. Today I also found a good quote, “Don't worry about failure; you only have to be right once.” This quote just stood out to me and it just seems like a quote of encouragement that some of you guys might need to finish these last week of the cycle. With that being said I'm proud of everyone on cycle and myself too, great job everyone. I hope everyone had a great...

3/9/24- #46

I am very proud of myself. After just healing from my sickness yesterday, I go straight into the Physical and Written test this morning. While I did get slight nausea and the desperate need of DayQuil, I pushed through and beat all of my pre-test scores (though some I had just barely beat though I know if I was not in the condition I was I could have done better). I got an 100% on my written test and so did Braxton and Mrs. Suzanne (congrats 100 squad). I went home and did some chores, got a ton of rest, and am ready to bring my 200% this week. Watch out testers, because I will be at full power these next two weeks. I am bringing my A game, and not another illness is getting to me (let’s hope)…….

3/9 - #40

Classes started at 9AM and ended at 12:30PM, a nice Saturday of TKD! I realized the packing day for Bags of Hope was today after I had left, and I was disappointed I had missed it because I was very excited about it. It was okay though.  I also learned that what I did with the green belts (doing their poomsaes in the engaging matters I learned at Instructor's Camp) stuck with them! One of the 3 that I worked with came up to me and started laughing about how "weird" it was. The day I was working with the 3, I noticed all of them were laughing and enjoying it, especially the one that came up to me. Him telling me about how he felt about the engaging poomsaes told me that he found the practice enjoyable and memorable enough to talk to me about days a few days later. I was...

Journal for Saturday

Hello King Tiger! Today was an awesome day of testing which went pretty well except for two things: my written test and my v-sit ups. The V-sit ups were a bit hard since I did them so rarely and I don't know what happened but, during the pre test, I got 14 done and this time I did 5 because I accidently put my foot on the ground. Next, I trusted the blue study guide for gwes and directions and I got all the cardinal directions wrong. The second thing I messed up on the written test was the instructors and what school they had. I mixed it with master shin and master chin because I second doubted myself. I wished I did better. I am still happy for Caleb, Braxton and Mrs. Suzanne for getting 100s on the test(This is one long paragraph about testing). After testing, I went back...

Daily dose of TKD

Boy oh boy do I have stuff to write about with the final physical test. It all started at Lake Norman when me and my dad pulled into the parking lot at exactly 6:40 am only to see the King Tiger party bus pulling out the other side! I was upset because I was looking forward to riding the party bus. Not that my dad's car smells bad or anything... but then a wonderful thing happened. The bus, as Master Chelley (aka Queen Tiger) said, "pulled a Uie" and came back to get me. I said my thank yous and hopped on the bus. On the way there, one of my TKD friends, Caleb, was playing games on his phone and turned the volume up really loud to make it sound funny. We laughed really hard.  At North Charlotte I beat all of my pre-test numbers except for burpees but in...

Hi King Tiger Family. This morning we went to Black Belt class and got to work on some 3rd Dan Self Defense and Specials. It was great as Nate and I are just starting to learn it and great we got to work with the Masters on it. Then we helped with the next class. I am learning that I truly enjoy instructing and missed it. I like showing the kids the practical side of what they are learning. I know that not everyone likes that but I have found it helps we remember things when I understand "the why"... I think something that is lost with many people (including myself sometimes) is knowing your distance. How far do I need to be to kick or punch someone. We were working on that today. Then we helped with the Bags of Hope service project and got to help put together all...

3/8 - #39

I still wasn't feeling good from yesterday, and continued my streak of concerningly large sums of sleep. I missed the advanced sparring class the one chance I could actually make the full class (I come home from school at 5:00-5:10 and would reach the class way later). This was really frustrating, but I managed to make it to the weekend black belt class a few minutes before it started. I still wasn't feeling well, and felt lost on the poomsaes that we were reviewing, which was especially frustrating when I knew I could do them.  Only two or less weeks left, and I will push forward :D

Relax with three x's

Ever thought about the North Carolina sky at exactly 8:16 PM? If you said yes, it was a 1 in 1440 chance in the day. Where I'm going with this is that the sky at exactly 8:16 pm is very relaxing. And relaxing is something that we need to be doing since we're two weeks away from our black belt testing. When you're going through your forms or practicing your kicks you don't want to look or feel like a cinder block. You can all stretch. Even to my adults, it's not embarrassing. Trust me. Speaking of relaxation, I'm feeling pretty good myself. I'm fairly confident with all of my forms and weapons forms and I'm done with my essays except for editing. Although last night I wasn't relaxed after Master Natasha mistakenly told me that essays were due tomorrow. I jumped out of my skin and made the most serious...

March 8th, 2024

This was the first day after being sick I felt over 80% of the way back to normal. I went to school, which was very productive. I had a JROTC meeting after school, which went alright. I was very tired by that point in the day and was not doing well mentally. Afterwards I came home and rested for a little bit. That was short lived and followed by black belt class. We worked on weapons and Hopkidos. I was able to work with Logan most of class, which is always fun. I then did a mentee and mentor session. I learned the first bit of both 3rd Dan self-defense and 3rd Dan Special self-defense. I then came home and relaxed. After that I stretched and now I am here.

Today I got my miles done and did requirements in PE. Then I played basketball with my friends. And social studies the presented our projects and it was super funny to see all of the videos. Any ELA we did roll up and read, which was pretty boring. Science, we watched osmosis Jones. We didn’t finish it so we will continue on Monday. In math we had a trigonometry quiz. Once I got home, I did taekwondo requirements and practiced poomsaes. I ate and got ready for taekwondo. Now I am on the way to taekwondo.

3/8/2024 (Keep Up The PACE)

Hello King Tiger Family. I hope everyone is doing well and getting ready for the Physical and Written tests.  Although I am on auditing cycle, I am praying and supporting all our testers for tomorrow. Please get rest and get yourself in the right mental state. Tomorrow will be challenging but not something you cannot get through. Do your best and if you have been focusing the prior weeks on getting better at the Physical exercises and taking the time to study for the Written test, then this is your moment to shine. Show off what you can do. Push yourself just a little further than you might have in the past. The extra push up or sit up, the extra few seconds off your mile run -- all show progress and shows your willingness to give it your all.  A friend of mine provided me this statement... "Keep Up The...

Beautiful Morning!

It was such a beautiful morning today.  The sky was a clear azure blue with dollops of fluffy white starched clouds.  Aqua Bella and I went to the tennis courts where I practiced my poomsae's and she practiced her speedy run arounds.  It was so convenient having so much space.  I didn't have to readjust my positions or step over Aqua the way I do in the limited space of my living room.   I went to King Tiger North Charlotte for my sparring class and had an awesome time.  We practiced a ton of kicks.  Thank you Max!

I wish I had something better to write about, but I just felt sick today.

stay strong

Hello guys! Welcome back to my journal. To start things off, I wanted to address that probably at this point in the cycle, including me, you may be tired. But we have to stay strong and finish strong. If you quit now then your choice may come along with some regrets. First of all, we're only two weeks away from testing and if you stop practicing now and you don't know your stuff by testing then it's going to be a rough night. Testing can last hours and you don't want to be the person who is dragging everyone behind. Some nights I really just want to sit down on the couch, bury myself in the blanket, maybe lay with my dog and read my book or play my video game but then I think about what stuff I have to do and what consequences can happen if I don't do...

Today I had my guitar class, where I am making huge progress on my midterm assignment; Sweden by C418. We got to pick our songs last week and since I am in a beginner guitar class; a lot of the chords are too hard for me. Luckily, I have a very exercised skill that's called "playing by ear". I picked from various simpler chords; which ones could work with the song. Because of this, I finished weeks before the due-date. My bus was late so I unfortunately could not make sparring class but we have next week so it is fine.

While I helped out with the high greenbelts in today's high belt class, I used what Master Shin talked about in his seminar at Instructor's Camp! I had them do Tae Keuk Sa Chang twice the normal way, and I could see boredom slowly forming. Then I had them stand on their knees, and they were very confused. They were concerned about how to kick and how to do their stances, but I just told them to figure it out. I did the poomsae on my knees alongside them, and although they fell over a lot they really enjoyed it. We still had a few minutes after that, so I asked someone to give me an animal. One of them said monkey, so every four steps in the poomsae, they had to pat their head and rub their belly. I came up with this because they said monkeys eat bananas and...

Bolo-ing

(Before we begin, I want you guys to know that this is a sequel to my other journal called staffing. Ok, now we're ready) Hello everyone, it's me Matthew. Tonight I will be writing about bolo, aka the machete. Bolo is a pretty repetitive form, but it is very cool nonetheless. It does introduce abanico, which for my bo chos is just two temple strikes of the bolo in a cross stance. Abinico is by far the coolest part of this form. I'm not sure if there are more bolo forms - you know like with stick and staff there are more than one forms - I'm not sure if there is a bolo form 2. Overall the bolo is fun to practice. And even though the bolo is a little heavy, i like twirling it around and doing the form. I'm going to grade it a 'B' for bolo. I'll...

Afterwards I picked up my Cypress for the tea ceremony (a photo is below). https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LXtlLt2jqEuneaSHrthRgkjNqAHiJ2hj/view?usp=drivesdk

Hello King Tiger Family. It is Wednesday. It was a good day, but a little frustrating work wise, but nothing I cannot overcome. I just got home. My incredible wife had a great meal ready and we ate. It was yummy. I am just chilling a little and then my goal is to hit a few requirements. Then I hope for an early bed. We will see. Have a great evening and day tomorrow. Take care.

Today I woke up and was almost late to school. and PE we played volleyball again. I also got my miles and some of my requirements done. Then social studies mean my group added affect to our video and the teacher said it looked really good. We also went over some leadership lesson. Then in ELA we watched outsiders the movie. We didn’t get to finish it but I liked the first half of the movie. In science we had a test. Halfway through he let us use our organ system booklet, which was super helpful. we had a gigantic essay question. In math we went over trigonometric angles, which was pretty easy. Once I got home, I did some tae kwon do, logging and did homework. Then I ate and I’m going to taekwondo.

Future me and current me

So sometimes I feel like the universe is trying to send me a message or guidance through the topic and discussions I talk about or listen to. Yesterday I kept circling around the topic of me in the present and future me. What I do as the present me to help future me, what I chose not to do because future me will work on it me. It occurs to me that future me will eventually be the current me. And current me is so present, finite. Once I go to sleep today, the me that is writing this will be me in the pass. And went I keep thing about past me, the further I go looking back at my pass self, I can see all these similarities and distinct differences. Most of the discussion of future self was about how you have to do things now as an investment...

3/5/24- #43

It’s scary to think that the physical test is this weekend. Of course it’s the week I am sore and ill, I really expected nothing less with the luck I’ve had for my first cycle. But hey, maybe that luck will turn around. Ive finally mastered my skill (not really mastered, I can say a few things in ASL so that I can do my mute day this Sunday), and I’m ready to push myself more than I have all cycle. For everything that has not gone my way these past three months, it’s all about to come to an end soon……..

Today I had no school because of teacher workday/voting poll. So I went on a long bike ride with my friends, where I coincidentally spotted someone from Tae Kwon Do. I said hi and continued. When my friends left, I used the rest of daylight to do my mile.

Hello King Tiger Family. I hope everyone is doing well today. Unfortunately, Nate is not feeling well. We think he has a stomach bug. He did not have school today so that sort of worked out except he really did not enjoy the day at all. He is resting. I did go to work as my wife stayed home with him. Work was work, but got to leave at a decent hour and got some requirements done. I went for a run as well. Weather is perfect for running. Not looking forward to running in the summer for our testing cycle (as this is our auditing cycle). I am getting hungry so finish a few things around the house and then food. Have a great night. Take care.

today was pretty good. I woke up early so I decided to make sure I had no homework and I couldn’t fall back asleep. Once I got to school, everyone was wearing their organs shirt and it was pretty cool. I noticed that People peoples organs shirts were either very good or decently bad. This scared me because I thought I was one of the people who had a decently bad one. And I got my miles done and my minutes for push-ups and things like that. Then we played kickball outside. And social studies we filmed for our Gen Z informational project Which was fun. In ELA we got into groups and went over nonfiction passages. It was so boring. in science, my teacher came around, grading our T-shirts and we had to point To the correct organs. I was super nervous until she got to me. She said I...

The power of belief

Hi Guys. How was your day? Good? Amazing! I wish we could talk back and forth like Messenger. Anyway... once upon a time, there was an egg carton and in the egg carton was an egg named Timothy. Now Timothy had a couple egg friends living with him in the egg carton, but there was also an egg bully. The egg bully was always really negative and mean to the other eggs. One day, unfortunately, the egg carton got placed on the other side of the counter. The egg bully and Timothy had to figure out how to get back to the other side of the counter but there was a huge gap separating the two pieces of counter. Egg Head, the bully egg, said there's no way we're going to get across it and I don't even want to try. Meanwhile, Timothy was thinking, this is the only way back and...

3/4 tired.......

Today I finally did all my requirements and went running for a little. I want to two classes today and I'm so glad I'm on spring break already because I'm so tired. I also finally did a handstand and I was so happy then I did falls and rolls and went home. I watched tiktok and played games and that was my day basically. I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe.
