Already lost count of my journal in my head but today I came home and ate very fast and went to King tiger to help out with class. I stayed until family class and got some requirments in while I was there. All I have to do now is run 1.5 miles!
I haven't been to school and tae kwon do at all this week. My mother took me to urgent care yesterday and I have strep throat. It hurt too much to eat. I'm taking antibiotics and it looks like plastic. I can go back to school tomorrow and I'm okay about that.
Today was a good day. I had school. After school I did my requirements and still in progress. I plan to go to king tiger to help out. So have a great rest of your day BYE!!!!!!
Hey everyone! It was the usual- school, homework, requirements. I'm planning to go to TKD to get credits and a mentee session in. The weekend is almost here- yay- 2 more days!! I actually have a lot of homework today that I have to finish- usually, I don't have as much as I have today. Well, that's it! Bye!
Another day at school. I’m glad it’s not raining. Trying to complete my requirements before I go and help out at class. I have been trying the specials form I learned as well as the new stick form. I am also meeting with my mentee and mentor!
Have so much to do and can’t get it all done at once. 9rounds and run those are my only accomplishments of the day. Feeling overwhelmed.
Today was a really long day. We worked on Taekwonil A LOT. We did a bit of Koryo which I kept on messing up on so I will work on that some more. I have been reading my book for my essay, so far i like it.
Today, was a festival for us. So I woke up at 5:35 am. I normally wake up between 6:30-7:45. Today, I was just happy the way I went to school. I just was astonished by myself. I got my Leadership credit and BBC Weekday today. After that, I did my homework.
I think I may have over done it yesterday with the burpees and pushups. I think I will concentrate on self-defense and poomsaes instead. Work is still with tight deadlines and it seems there is no end for months. It would be nice to be able to take a day off because the weekend doesn't seem to be relaxing.
Today was a rough day. I had Science Olympiad again today because it was Tuesday. I don’t like coming home later than usual because then I can’t finish my homework on time. So I have to wake up early in the morning and finish my homework. Before I started on my homework though I had to go to Tae Kwon Do to do a mentee session, get my leadership credits done, black belt class, and mentor session. When I got home I ate some tacos and went to do my homework. I stayed up til 11:30 and now doing my journal!
Today started out quite rainy and boring. I worked from home today but was stuck in a good bit of webex meetings so I didn't feel like I got very much done. After work I went to the dojang alone. Erik didn't get enough sleep last night and I didn't want him to be short on sleep again. Hopefully he will be ready to go back to the dojang again tomorrow. :-)
Long day today. Woke up at 5 am- 100 pushups, 100 situps, 10 burpees. I stayed at work after 5p instead of going home so that my drive to North Charlotte wouldn't be so long. Now I'm just getting home after a great black belt class. I was planning on doing a few more requirements but I think I'm done for the day. I'll be back at it at 5 am tomorrow.
Hi everyone! It was the usual- school, homework, and requirements. I got to go to TKD today and get leadership credits and mentee and mentor session in. I figured out that I need to work on my front kicks more during black belt class. Well that's it! Hope everyone had a great day! Bye!
Had a good day, a good black belt class and a good time with my mentees.
(the title is the same bc idk man) today was a good-okay day. was really rainy, and classes were the same, although i am enjoying my free blocks. after school i had a club and it's crunch time since comp is on sunday and we're prepping for that. i fit in some requirements between that and tkd. did class, had a mentor session, and went home. see yall, gn, bye
I didn't do a lot today, But I got an 88 on a health quiz which is good. I worked with my mentee and mentor
I’m really happy that I’m no the black belt cycle because I also play soccer. I had a 2 month break for soccer because of winter and I trained the whole time. I also got stronger because if TKD and working hard at that, I think that this is going to be a good season with the people I know and trust.
Another cloudy, rainy day. Chiseled away at more requirements. I found out Luke Kuechly is retiring, which stinks because I am a big fan. Retiring at 28 years old, wow. I wonder what other changes await the Panthers. Next season is going to be interesting, to say the least.
Today was a good day. After school which was no different from most days I did my requirements and still in the process. I am planning to go to king tiger to help out and take black belt class.
Today I had PE and we did a ton of push ups and sit ups. After school I had to work on my Valentine poems for school. I am almost half way done. Today I gave soccer practice so I’ll get my running in there.
Nasty day today, I wasn't able to catch the gym this morning so I will go later in the evening. I am going to be 1 tired person! I finished my White Belt Challenge essay last night, starting on another one today. I look forward to teaching tonight and then going to Master Evins' school for Black Belt class. I slept better last night than I have in a few weeks so hopefully I am getting back on track with my sleep schedule. Not much else going on, back to work!
Good morning. Yesterday was a good day. I had PE and I finished my run and physical requirements at school. Went to class and got both my Leadership 1 and 2 credits. My mentee has been sick. Off to school now. Have a good day.
Dear John I saw yesterday you got some good poomse practice in. I hope you finally figured out some time to spend on it. I know a lot is going on so please keep it up and practice. You need to be ready for April and have no excuses so keep going and work hard. John
Today was rough, my essay is due on Friday and I am not that done I got my Leadership credits 1 and 2. It was fun in TKD today. I didn't have homework today because I finished it in school but I was working on my essays.
Today was not a great day for our solar panels and they only produced around 6% of our total usage. It was however nice not having to wear a jacket going to and from the office. This weird weather is really odd. I keep hearing that winter is coming but so far I see no sign of it. :-) Work was good today and afterward Erik and I went to the dojang to help out with class and get some leadership credit and I got a mentee session in. All in all it was a good day.
i think it's safe to say that today was a good day. we had midterms today which seemed difficult atfirst but when i actually got it was pretty easy. after that i ate lunch w my friends and went to the rest of my classes, and the best thing about midterms is that after i took it (i only had 1) i have a couple of free blocks to substitute for my classes up in the hs for the rest of the week. got home, chilled/did requirements, and i'm gonna go to bed now. goodnight & sleep well
Today we started learning about Charlotte history in school. It rained a lot, but it stopped after school and I was able to get my run in. I met with my mentor and mentee today. I am feeling pretty good about my requirements. I try to get some done in the morning before school so I don’t have as many after school. Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow!
Rain , rain ,rain, ok I will take that over ice or snow. But I thought it was April showers bring may flowers. Not January showers.????♂️????♂️????♂️
Short journal today, I am pretty tired today. I haven't been sleeping very well, even after taking an over the counter sleep aid. I may have to get the heavier stuff to get my sleep patterns back on track. This happens sometimes when I am very stressed. The lack of sleep is making getting my requirements difficult to get through, which is driving me nuts because at this point, it should be getting much easier. This morning's run wasn't too bad, I took my time today so my running time was long. I wasn't going for time today, just the miles. Still working on my pull-ups, I realized from the pre-test I needed more strength training, so here I go! Ok, time to watch the Tiger bowl!
I missed going to school and class in tae kwon do today. I was not feeling well from my fever of 102.8. I have a sore throat, my upper left leg was sore so it made it hard for me to move when i woke up. I have some catching up to do.
Today I went to school and it was ok. I did a few requirements while I was there. After school I met with my mentee Gabriel, and we did our first mentee session. I am proud of him and he did really well. We worked on self defense 1, 2, and 3 and I gave him some tips on how to get better kicks.
Wow was it humid today. Yesterday was gorgeous. Luci and I set up a circuit in the driveway and did 1 minute rounds of sparring, jump rope, push ups, sit ups and poomsaes. It was really fun. Then the girls played outside the rest of the afternoon without complaining. That doesn’t always happen. Also got to break in my new softball glove with Jocelyn. Boy am I rusty. We have to get out and play catch more! Password troubles yesterday so didn’t log. Broke my streak.
Today I went to school and came back with almost no homework and went to 5:25 class to help out until family. I am all done with my requirments right now and all I got to do is some homework and sleep!.
Wow, what a warm, humid, soggy day! Definitely did not do any running outdoors today, had to use the treadmill. I think I successfully worked out my soreness from Saturday. It is hard to tell. During the black belt cycle, sometimes EVERYTHING is sore!
Gloomy day. Not really feeling it. I did some modified pushups, some situps, poomsaes and self defense when I got home from work. Now I need to psych myself up to do some burpees and kicks. This is going to be a really busy week for me at work and I'm feeling stressed. I'll have to work hard to get everything done.
I didn't do much yesterday other than get out to the Greenway and take Monty for a walk. It was too nice to not do something outside. Work is very busy at this time of year and will be for the next few months. I didn't think I would get to walk tonight with my friend, but she surprised me and offered about half an hour. Thank goodness her time wasn't exact. When weather is not what we want to go outside in, we have a work building that has a loop in it that is about a tenth of a mile. I had already decided that I need to up my burpees or I'll never reach my goal. I did 3 burpees after reach loop and two loops I did 5 for total of 58 burpees and 2.36 miles. Okay, I might have skipped a loop or two, but I...
Today was another day at school where I suffered a major headache. When I got home I ate fish and rice then started on my homework. The homework took a long time, which caused another major headache because the large equations and hard questions that I had to answer. After that I did my requirements and then ate dinner.
Today was a nothing special day. I had school nothing different. When I got home I did my requirements and also worked on homework. Then I had dinner and went to bed. Told you, nothing special.
Hey everyone. Today was the usual. School. Homework. Requirements. I’m planning to go to TKD today to help out and earn some credits. Well that’s it! Hope everyone had a good Monday! Bye!
Today was had a sub in math, she said she was a biology teacher which was weird. I'm finally beginning to understand french and health was cool, I have been tracking my food so that's cool. We had soccer workouts which were fun.
Good Morning! Yesterday was a good day. After I finished my assignments and school projects I did my requirements. Then my brother and I went for a run while my parents walked. We did a 2 mile run. The Chiefs were losing in the first quarter and came back and won the game. Now I am eating breakfast and getting ready to go to school. See you in the evening! Have a good day!
Today was the day after the pretest and I expected to be way more sore than I actually was. I expected to struggle getting through most of my requirements but it went rather smoothly. Other than that both Erik and I worked on some essays. It was a beautiful day and it was very nice to walk the dogs in shorts and a t-shirt this evening, very unexpected for January. Tomorrow the work week starts again, good thing I kinda like my job.
Today was a light day, I didn't hit all my goals for my requirements but I got some in. My lower back was really hurting me late yesterday and into today so I didn't want to overdo it and further irritate my back. I was very proud of Taylor and myself. We ran our fastest mile since the beginning of this adventure back in December! Taylor ran a 12 minute mile (was over 27 seconds) and I ran a 13:53 mile! That's faster than last week! Guess this gym membership is paying off. I have started working on my essays, I hope to have about 4 of them completed by the end of this week. Tomorrow starts the beginning of the end of my long wait for my house to be mine and I can start the moving process!
Today I was sore and I had my piano class and my dance class. Today dance was fun I got to different things. Also, I finished up my painting for my teachers. That was all for today but I am a little sore still.
Today I did a lot of soccer. I mean a TON of soccer. First I had early morning training and TKD exercise. Then my friend came over and we hung out for a few hours. Then it was off too the gym for some team practice for about 2 hours. Today was very anticlimactic, I normally do lots more things to get prepped for my tournament this weekend, I’m very scared but all and all I’m ready to slay. Stay positive and be kind. alex
Sunday . It was a nice Warm day for January. But every thing is still to wet . Had a good Down poor lass night.
I woke up a little bit sore today to say the least, but I was still able to fit in requirements while I cleaned my house. I'm doing pushups on an incline, but I am unable to bend my elbows very much without putting too much pressure on my right shoulder. I'm getting nervous about testing in Korea. I don't want to disappoint Master Evins or Grandmaster Lee, and I don't want to let myself down, either. The best I can do is continue to practice, practice, practice.
It’s Sunday, I’m very sore from my soccer workouts. I haven’t done much today. But I helped clean and paint our new mail box. I have to track my food for my health project so I’ve been more conscious of the calories
Dear John I did not do a thing today except help out around the house and paperwork. I need to get some more letters do and yours is the first one. Tried to get the rest of my Spartan Races set up but having no luck with registration something seems off with the web site. So will try tomorrow. Look to see me in 4 Trifectas this year and one Ultra. Good luck if you decide to join me. See you soon John
Hey guys! It felt good to sleep in today. I had church though in the morning. After church, I started on my requirements. I also watched some tv today. We have school tomorrow- I’m not ready yet to go back:((( hope everyone had a great day today! Bye!
This is the hardest thing I've done in my life. I do feel great working out with others instead of by myself because it makes me feel someone else's struggle.
Today is a chill day! I did some requirements, but I spent most of the day outside playing with friends. We even had a water fight! I got so soaked I had to change clothes. Ready for a great week!
Wow, what a day yesterday! Any time I get a chance to train with Grandmaster Lee, I consider it a great privilege. Whether it is training, history, or even just listening to stories, it is awesome to be able to listen to him. I also feel like I did a great job on my pre test & physical test. Still have a lot of work to do, but off to a great start! I already got into the gym today, and knocked out most of my requirements. Just a few more, and then time to watch some football!
Today I went to church in the morning then had people over for lunch. After that I did my requirements. Nothing much to talk about the pretest was yesterday. Today was kinda a chill day.
Yesterday I did my pretest and I was shocked of how well I did. I had an awesome partner to support me, because it really helped when she said you've got this taylor! My favorite part of the pretest was my run. When I started running in December, it took me about 20 minutes to run just 1.25 miles. Yesterday I ran 1 mile in 12:27 minutes! WOW! After the pretest was done, I could not believe how well I did. I hope everyone was proud of what they got yesterday, it was a lot of hard work.
Today I'm going to finish all of my daily requirements, read, and play some games. I got nothing to do really but I might put in a few extra requirements so its just a little less more to do later. I am just about to get started on the work so.. what am I waiting for?
Good Day! Yesterday was really tiring. After I came home from pre-test I took some rest. Then I started working on my assignments. My brother went to his friends house to play. I still kept going with my assignments when my dad was watching the 49ers game. Then my mom and I went to pick my brother from his friends home. After I came back I started working on my school project "Book Club". I finished it by 8PM and then crashed into the bed. I have 2 more assignments this morning and then will be working on my requirements. Have a good day all!!!
Today was the pretest and it was of course tough. Since this is my second cycle I knew what to expect so I wasn't terribly nervous. It was of course tough but now I have a benchmark and it will be nice to see how much I can improve by the actual test. I am sure I will be sore tomorrow. Afterward it was time for a nice shower and some lunch. Dinner consisted of pizza and a movie with the family.
Today I had to wake up really early because we had black belt pre-test. It was really tough. After I came home I had some ramen for lunch. I was tired today so I mostly relaxed. My parents got Hawthorne's pizza for dinner and we watched Shazam! It was funny. At the start it was a little confusing but it was a good movie.
Today was the pre-test and l was honestly so scared and nervous. But I think l did pretty well and I felt way more relaxed than I thought I would be. After I came home from the pre-test, I ate and then was on my phone because I was pretty tired. Then I wanted to do something so I thought of painting. I painted a painting for my teacher in school. That's all I did today.
hi guys i took a break from journaling for a while j bc it's been a long week. a really, really long week n sometimes i need to take a lil break from all the rush. today was the pretest and i was tired, i was sore, but it's cool cause i'm not dead yet. i feel muy woozy so imma head to bed see yall tmrw gn

Dear John I see you trained hard today but understand you still need to work on your poomse's so you need to work on it. You need to take that calendar of yours and set some time aside before March and definitely before April trip . I wish you the best and look forward to seeing you train hard and do well. John
What a great training day! It started with junior tigers and many stick/star during that class. Then I worked with Rohan on stick form 2, bolo form and bo cho dan self defense. Black belt class brought poomsae pretest and much work on front kicks. After class, I went home and ate lunch, did some pushups, sit ups, and jump rope, then went back to the dojang to train with Grandmaster Lee with most of the other candidates testing in Korea and the school owners and many other masters. Enjoyed my first visit to a Korean restaurant. Thank you for the ride Master Tucker and Master Cavazos. Now it's time for a few requirements before sleep.
What awesome day, Having the opportunity to spend a few hours with grandmaster Lee,.????????????
I. Am. Exhausted. I trained harder today than I have in a long time. I helped in Junior Tigers class, worked on requirements before black belt class, survived a very strenuous black belt class and then trained with Grandmaster Lee for 2 hours. I made myself breathe and I pushed through, even when I thought I was going to pass out!! I just kept thinking, "This is my black belt cycle. It's supposed to be hard and I'm going to do it!" I didn't log my requirements yesterday so I will add them to today's log. I have to count up everything I did today, but I think it's going to be a pretty high number!! Now I am in bed at 8:15 pm after taking more Advil and I could not be happier about it!
Today was my pretest. It was tiring! The best thing I did was push ups. I was able to do 39 in 1 minute. The written went ok. After the test I got to relax and eat some sushi.
Today I had to wake up at 6 to get ready for the pre-test. It was pretty great, in black belt class we had our poomsae test. And after our poomsae test we practiced front kicks. When I got home I ate some lunch then did my chores and ate dinner.
Today was the pretest! It went really good. I feel like I did good, but I still have more too improve on. I know I got the most obvious answers wrong on the written portion of the pretest- I need to study the study guides more. I also need to work more on my front kicks and stances. Once I came home I took a long nap, I was very tired because I had to wake up early in the morning to get ready for the pretest. Good job to everyone today!
So today was the Black Belt pretest. I did well on most of my physical requirements but I hope to improve especially on my running time. During the Black Belt class we focused especially on both front kicks and talked a lot about back stances. I will be putting more time and effort into my back stances because I know that sometimes when I don’t think about it I slip side ways without noticing.
Really good day! Woke up actually feeling better! Ran fine. Physical test went well. Learned a ton in Sparring and plan to work on those combinations. Learned I need a lot work on front kicks and also how to make better use of working on requirements. Excited for the next few weeks to improve on everything! Now to have some family time. Luci and I are logging and putting Books away for the night.
Good Day everyone. Pre-test is done and I just came back. I ran my 1.5 miles in 14.25 minutes. I have been maintaining a steady pace in my daily run and I am happy with my time. I am sure I will be able to beat this time in my final test. We did a lot of kicks today and I am sore. I will be sleeping very well tonight. Good job everyone on the pre-test. Have a good day.
Good morning I don't you will be seeing this at 7 am but today is the Pretest!. half of my body is excited while the other half is just waiting to die. I'm looking forward to see everyone at the Pretest and hope they do great for it but not to great that you can't beat your last score!!
I have had a few days this week including late nights, which makes getting requirements done daily. Last night after black belt class I went home to work until I got kicked off the system at midnight. Looking forward to training tomorrow with Grandmaster Lee. The end of the first official week of the cycle, and I don't feel that I've accomplished what I should. Days are flying by. Well, more requirements to complete today and then get some sleep. Tomorrow!
Today was an exciting day because it was Friday! I had electives at the end of the school day, it was actually really boring. After I got home from school I went to the gym with my dad to run a mile or two. Then we went to go pick up a treadmill for the cycle so we don’t have to go to the gym everyday. But they said it was already gone, so we had to drive all the back home and we almost ran out of gas. When I got home I ate something then did my requirements. Good luck on the pre-test tomorrow everybody! I hope I do good too.
This morning I went to the office as always and had some coffee. I ended up going to get a spicy lamb salad from the halal food cart for an early lunch at 11:30. When I finished it my wife texted and asked me if I wanted to go out to lunch with her. We then went to Lupie's Cafe and I had a bowl of Texas chili. After work we went to the Lake Norman dojang for a black belt class. I think we are ready for tomorrow. For unknown reasons I wasn't terribly hungry for dinner. :-)
Today I went to school. It was better than the other days this week. After I came home, I checked on the snake but she wasn't very active today because she ate yesterday. We went to the Lake Norman school for a black belt class and then when we came home my mom had a surprise. She got us some cakes from Nothing Bundt Cakes. I am a little nervous about the pretest in the morning.
Wasn’t going to journal today. Exhausted. I don’t feel well and could have gone to bed at 4 after work. Got to class. did a few requirements, took the kids to dinner. Came home prepped for tomorrow. Just had to keep moving because if I didn’t that would have been it for the day. Here’s hoping to feel better for test tomorrow.
Had a great black belt class with Master Chelley at the Lake Norman dojang today! Went over all color belt forms and self defenses. Also got a chance to work with my mentees on the same right after class. I was almost late to class (which never happens)! I didn't realize with traffic it takes me an hour to get there from my house. I will definitely leave earlier next week. Tomorrow---physical test, sparring class, black belt class, and training with Grandmaster Lee. Whew! I am going to get some incredible sleep tomorrow night! Good luck to everyone tomorrow! Hopefully no one needs it.
Today was a great day. In the morning I had vex robotics. After that I had math. Next I had ELA. Then I had lunch. After lunch I had recess. Then after my mom picked me up from school I did my requirements. Finally I had dinner and went to bed.
Was able to get some walking miles in today.????♂️????♂️????♂️ looking forward for tomorrow Session with Grandmaster Lee.
Today was a good day. Came back from school. Had no homework. Started on my requirements. Ahh tomorrow is the pretest!! I’ve practiced my poomsaes and self defense many times. I think I’m ready for this pretest. Let’s hope it goes good! Hope everyone has a great day! Bye!
Tomorrow is the pre-test! Master Dege and I completed our physical pre-test at the beginning of our audit cycle, so tomorrow we will be helping with the morning classes. We will definitely be in black belt class for the poomsae and self defense pre-test, though. I've practiced my poomsae's and self defense so much that they sometimes run together in my mind. Let's hope that doesn't happen tomorrow in front of Master Evins. Good luck tomorrow, fellow candidates!
Last night I went to sparring class and got a great workout. Today I have art at school. It is my favorite subject. Since I’m a little ahead on my running I’m going to take a day off -Yay! I’m ready for the pretest tomorrow.
Good Morning. Yesterday was a really long and tiring day. I had classes right after school and then went to sparring class. Before sparring class I worked with Master Marcus on my rolls and falls. Last year when I started my first BB cycle I was struggling with my rolls and falls and I have come a long way now. Sparring was tiring. I came home and watched Jeopardy. Ken won the Second time. He needs one more win to take the $1 Million dollars. Getting ready to school and then classes in the evening. Have a good day!
Another beautiful day and our solar panels produced well. I worked from home and when Patrick and Erik came home from school we fed the Awakey Snakey a small mouse. After dinner Erik and I went to the dojang for classes and leadership credit. When we came home we fed the Awakey Snakey another mouse and now it should be the Full and Tired Snakey.
Long day. Great poomsae review in black belt class tonight and we did tons of requirements! After class I reviewed 3rd Dan 1-step self defense with Master Dege in our mentor session with Master Cavazos. Just can’t get that one to stick in my brain!
Was supposed to jump ahead today with requirements. Instead I barely did anything, woke up with a throbbing headache, cough and congestion. Got kids to school, made them eggs and toast, then went back to bed. Around noon I made it out of bed. Got something to eat for myself and sat down to write some essays realizing requirements would be too much of a struggle. Made it to sparring and Leadership classes. Now I again have a throbbing headache. Going to bed to hope for the best tomorrow.
Tommorow I got a test. All the subjects are easy except for the confusing one, math. It's not hard but just really gets confusing once you go on to the next level. I can't run my daily miles alot anymore because I got a tight schedule, my dad said he's trying to find a treadmills but he couldn't find one.
Good day at work.???? got home and felt good doing my requirements. ????????????️♂️????️♂️
Today I went to school and it was ok. The best part of today was when I got home. We got finally feed the snake. It was really interesting and it happened really fast. She saw the mouse and then it was gone so fast. We went to TKD classes and then when we got home we fed her a 2nd mouse. It was gross but cool at the same time.
Today was a good day. I was able to get a mentee session, leadership 1 and 2 credits, and go to black belt class. School was alright, it was the usual. I started my requirements in the morning and am currently finishing them up. I have a project due tomorrow that I still have to finish. I should probably start doing that. I hope everyone had a great day!
Today was a regular school day. When I got home I went to piano class and then when I got home I went to King Tiger to get my leadership credit and black belt class. After that I worked on my homework and I will eat dinner after I finish my homework. Hopefully I have a better day tomorrow since it is Friday tomorrow.
Wow, I actually did 10 pullups today! Not at the same time, but that is still great for me! After even 3, I can really start to feel it in my "bad" shoulder. But, just kept going today! We will see how it feels tomorrow. Looking forward to an awesome black belt class over at the Lake Norman dojang tomorrow, and tons of training and classes at North Charlotte on Saturday.
Today was a great day. In the morning I had math benchmarks it was boring. Then I had lunch. After lunch I had recess. Next I had music for specials. When my mom picked me up and we came home I did my requirements. Then my BFF came! We went to the science fair and we won ribbons for winning we are to the regionals. Then I came home had dinner and went to bed.
TODAY I WENT TO KING TIGER AND DID SOME REQUIREMENTS,WORKED WITH MASTER WEEKS,AND HELPED OUT WITH CLASS.THEN I WENT TO MY HOUSE TO GET MY BASKETBALL ???? Put my new Gianas’s on then we hit the road and my team is very good so we will win the championship.well I GOT TO HIT THE ROAD,BYE ????????????????????⛹????????
Today I took my Math Benchmark and l missed 3/35, which is 91%. We are starting a new essay for our book series. I am doing an essay on the Divergent Series. I am coming to taekwondo today.
Yesterday was a tough day for me. I had a really hard time running and it felt like I was dragging a ton of bricks behind me in all my workouts. I even had issues working on my lats to get them to where I can do pull ups better without looking like im about to explode trying to do 1. I was talking to a few of my friends who love to run and we figured out that my problem is probably because I might have been dehydrated (I woke up extremely thirsty), and I haven't been getting enough sleep....let alone quality sleep. I am going to go buy a new pillow today because I woke up even more tired than I went to sleep last night. I am going to take it easy today and spread out the workouts across the day instead of doing it all in the morning. I am still coughing like I smoked a pack of cigarettes from my run yesterday so I am going to chew on a few cough drops throughout the day to see if that helps. Im also going to do the Vics on the feet at night trick tonight to see if that helps. Bring on sparring class tonight! Lesson of this story, drink lots of water and get good sleep! Oh yeah, I finished my white belt challenge last night and I ordered Taylor and myself books for our essays!
Yesterday I met with my mentee. I practiced his hop step kicks and his turning side kick. I also met with my mentor. I am feeling good about my progress so far. I also helped in class and got 2 leadership credits. I really like helping in class. I think it is fun!
Good Morning everyone. Yesterday was another long day. Came back home at 8.15pm and went to watch the Greatest of All Times Jeopardy Tournament Of Champions. Yay!!! James won the Day 2 games and I was very happy. Another long day today with back to back classes and I will be back only around 8pm again. Heading to the bus stop now. I have my Reading benchmark today! Good Day!
