so this is part one of what i did one the weekend for week 3 on the tor- black belt cycle. jk if you got that, sorry. moving on. so saturday i went to my competition for that thing i'm not going to tell you about. it was fun. it was cool. we didn't win but whatever. a lot of teams were there from all over nc. and only four went to nationals, so our chances were pretty slim. we worked hard though, and even though we didn't win, we were happy for the teams that did. i met a guy named paul and his rich guy friend (who was wearing versace at the time). they were cool. i had fun with my team at this place where set up these games for you to play. i beat people and lorded it over them. and yes, i am aware that that...

Journal Day 51 Rohan Apte

       I had a good day. In the morning I did my homework. Then I read Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban. Then I did my requirements. I got a new pull up bar for my pull ups. So I can do it more regularly now.        Then we went to go for my brother's hair cut. I read Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban there. Then I had lunch. Then I read Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban for 4 hours and I finished it. It was 435 pages long. Then I went for a walk. Then I watched the SUPER BOWL 53 ! It was so exciting. I had dinner while I watched the super bowl. The Patriots won against Rams ! I am going to bed now.

Monday

Got up early this morning to get myself ready for work and then get Nate/Lexi ready for school. I took Nate to the bus stop and headed to Cary NC for some meetings. It is about 2.5 hour drive, and got in by 9:00am. Good day of meetings. Went to my mother-in-laws in Cary and stayed there (which I usually do), and then did my requirements and exercises. Had dinner and now writing this. I started to do some research on the History of the Kwans. Getting ready to write the next essay. Keep Moving!!!

February 4

So in STEM class today we split up into pairs and I got paired with Maddux. He is a really nice and funny guy, we will be researching a crank and slider gear type. The logistics of it are really cool because basically you turn a wheel which is hooked up to a piece of metal through an axel and the piece move back and forth. Hope everyone has a good day!

I had a pretty good day today, I woke up around 9:30. I got ready early and hung out with my older brother and his girlfriend that came to visit for the weekend. She lives in West Virginia and only gets to visit him every once in a while so it was nice to see her. Around mid-day she left for the airport. The rest of the day I drove my parents around for some errands and then did my requirements and practiced guitar. Just finished my homework and now am getting ready for bed.

Wow, it ha...

Wow, it has been a long week at the Horstmann house. We are all getting over the Flu. I was at work for the last seven days, I know, shouldn't have gone sick, but there is a huge guilt factor when I don't go. Luckily it wasn't a horrible week in that sense. It was a bit of a struggle with the illness. All of the kids have been sick. Charlie went back to school for the first time in a week. Anna went back last Thursday. William is out of school now. Today was also the first day in a week I have done my exercises, hopefully we will still be on track. Can't wait to get back to class. See you soon.

And so, it begins

Big day for Master Knight and I. The grand opening. Let me start with thank you. So many of you came out to support us and make this a success! It was so amazing to see all these people show up who were taught by Master Knight at some point of their lives and how he made such an impact with them. Hopefully the momentum will continue. I'm making this a short one due to the fact that my wife will probably find me drooling on my key board sound asleep if I don't go to bed now. You rock!

Community Service

Today we had our community service in which we helped out with the Loaves and Fishes organization. For those who don't know, the story behind Loaves and Fishes lies within the gospel of Matthew. But that is a story for another time. But the service was really fun, and we packed a lot of food to help out people. I think this was a great service and that honestly, we should continue to help out with this organization.

today was normal. again. sometimes i feel like i'm trapped in the same hamster wheel running the days over and over again. but enough about that. today was so weird for some reason. it's not really about the things that happened during my day, but more like the feeling. it was weird for some reason. i don't know why. some people were randomly sad and happy, and it was strange. and that's it. all I have to say about my day. I can't come to community service tomorrow because I have another thing that goes all day. No, I'm not going to tell you what it is, so don't bother asking. So, in conclusion, goodbye.

Today was a very, uh, interesting day today. First when I was going to school, there was this big accident that literally happened right across the street from us with a car hitting a truck. Then my homeroom/English teacher brought in all these National Geographic magazines from the 70's. Then later in the day this kid in my Astronomy class breaks his Chromebook, oops.

To be learned

It feels I haven't journaled in a while. Been so crazy busy with working my old business, and helping Master Knight with the new school. Our new water cooler came in yesterday, so I installed that. Some signs came in so I hung that. Some kicking bags came in so I kicked that. I have been trying to learn more about social marketing so I won't look like some major idiot when our Marketing guy starts talking about Pixels, seo, tagss. and about thousand other terms I don't know yet. So, I downloaded a book on it and hopefully it can learn me. Wish me luck! Stay groovy cycle dudes and dudettes!

It has been a very good but busy work... more for work than anything. We had three days of management sessions discussion our 2019 plans and strategy at work. Basically it is work hard and more than last year... which is typically the message. However, I think we are being a little smarter on how we are going after the  market this year. We have good plans, but lets see how we execute on them. I am excited. We are basically right in the center of the testing cycle if you count the pre-cycle in terms of days. I am feeling pretty good about most items. Working with Master Marcus on Staff Form 2 and Bolo Form... I am starting to get it down. Minor mistakes and making changes. I will be ready. I continue to listen to Grandmaster Evins video on Facebook. It is inspirational... basically this is hard so...

5 minutes at a time

Hey folks, From watching Grand Master Evins video on Facebook, it seems some folks might be losing heart. If you are reading this and are dreading one more push up, pomsae, or self defense, rest assured you are not alone. Sometimes knowing that we are all struggling and have those moments of "Why am I doing this?" really helps. Let me tell you, once you pull through that tunnel and start seeing the light, and realize it's not a train, then it all becomes worth it. Remember, this isn't something that is a chore on your daily lists of things to do. This is a personal challenge to yourself that if you dig deep enough, there is nothing you can't do. A few lessons I learned during my Air Force days was don't worry about tomorrow, focus on what the next five minutes brings. I have been pushed to what I...

This is the last day of January and I am sort of dreading February for some reason. I don't know why but I've never liked February and it always seems dismal and cold to me. In class today we did this thing where you read an article on something random so I looked up string theory which I though was cool. String theory is a basic physics theory that could explain why atoms stick together. It could, if proven to be true, could explain dark matter and other things in space we really know nothing about. Anyways that was day.

A day of suspense.....

This week my high school is supposed to get searched by some team of 20 people, in which they search our bookbags, and us, taking about 4-6 hours. It hasn't happened all week so it really thought it would happen today, but it still didn't. So that means that were going to have tomorrow on a Friday, so basically I won't be doing anything school related on Friday. However today I was kinda disappointed, expecting to happen.

Injured!

not the best start to the morning.   Went to the gym with some friends. Today was chest day so a lot of pushups and bench pressing. Before ending my workout, I was knocking out 185 on the bench press. One of my friends thought it would be a nice joke to yank off a 45 off of the left end of the bar. Once he did, the right side of the bar came crashing down on my arm. Didn't break or tear anything, but in a lot of pain. Had to wear an arm brace for the entire day, even at TKD. Might be on it for a few more days too. If some of you remember Master Aurbach, he went through years of TKD with only one arm. So I didnt have any excuses to not come to class today. it was interesting to figure out how to change...

Tuesday

It is was good day at work. We had some strategic sessions with the leadership, and it was fairly productive. I find that there are so many people that are just passive about things. It is important to talk thought items and raise issues, and just get it out there for discussion. I think some people do not like conflict or debate, and so with 30+ people in the room, there were about 6 people that continued to ask questions and had information to share. I was one of those. I like to challenge myself and others, even if it means I get actions from the discussion. I came back to my mother-in-laws house and did some exercises and requirements. It was a good way to end a stressful day. Keep moving!!!!

Spar one, spar all

This morning on the way to sparring class, I received a text from Grand Master Evins asking me to teach sparring. Always keeping me on my toes and challenging me. I love that! That is one of my most favorite classes to teach or participate. Hopefully the class had a good workout and got something out of it. As I finally start to grow up, I can safely say that all the things I thought I had figured out, I don't. That is today's lesson to myself. Keep learning, keep growing, aim high and bow low. Humility is the key to knowledge and progression. Had an awesome time in black belt class. Always a great class with Master Chelley Hartle. After class I was hoping to work more on the new Do Jong, but we had a meeting with friends for our schools fund raiser which somehow I got stuck on....

Today I did my empathy training and wrote the essay on my white belt challenge. It was kind of unnerving not hearing your own voice and I messed up a couple times. My essay I wrote in the afternoon then I tried to run but my leg has been tight for some time and it locked up. So I only ran a half a mile because of the muscle knot.

hello and monday i'm not saying happy monday because that would be a lie. it's a well known fact that everyone hates mondays. and sometimes you feel sorry for monday because it can be good sometimes, but most of the time you just wanna whack it with a baseball bat. today was normal. wake up. school. home. requirements. homework. that's basically all i did today. in other notes, i read a story about how someone used their washer as a salad spinner. i mean, it's a good concept, but in terms of sanitization and being clean, it's gross because the washer is where you clean your used clothes. you'd be eating used clothes salad. gross. so that's it. have a monday. not a happy monday. just a monday.

Class

Got a leadership credit for helping out in class today. It gave me a chance to round up my kicking requirements. I came home, did more of my requirements, and tried to refrain from eating icecream (It didn't work). Hope everyone had a good day!

Today is the day after my empathy training and I started my essay on it. I also got into two different big school projects which might be difficult to juggle around with TKD. Hopefully I get it all done. Wishing everyone a good Monday.

Monday

My shrub (Camie) is  doing well and I only have to water her two times per week. I'm usually not the best with plants whether I forget to give them water or I don't give them enough sun light or too much sunlight. Today I helped out with two classes because my mentee wasn't at Tae Kwon Do today and I got a mentor session in at the end of my regular class.

happy sunday i thought today was monday. so that was stupid. moving on! today i just sat around, did my requirements, sat around some more. and it was great. because i finally got some sleep. and i'll try to get even more sleep so i don't come to school everyday looking like a vampire that's half melted from the sun. that's pretty much all i have to say because like i said nothing really happened today. except for one more thing- could the websie please have a few updates so that people can't see people's personal information. like one time i was checking the site when i wasn't logged in and i could see my address. i really don't want random people seeing my address, and i think other people wouldn't like that either. so just a request. goodbye and happy mon- nope, it's sunday.

Got our Tree

Nate and I got our Cyprus trees today. I took some time to think about the significance of the tree. It is something for us to nurture and take of, which takes times and patience. I think that this could be related to our learning of Tae Kwon Do... it takes time and patience, and I also think it take the patience of our keepers (in this case our Masters and Instructors) to take the time to teach us and be patient as we learn. Not trying to read too far into it, but I think this is getting us more ready to be Instructors and teachers to others. Keep Moving!!!

Today Sara...

Today Sara and I were woken up by Anna at 3 am. She had a fever, chills and a headache. By morning she felt a little better but was exhausted from the long night. Charlie also felt under the weather. I left the house at 6 and got home from work at 7pm to hear the days sick events. They both look like they don't feel well. I quickly did my exercises while watching the end of the Lego movie. We are all headed to bed. Hopefully this is a quick illness for them.

January 27th

I have had a really stressful week, so today being pretty calm was a really nice change of pace. I slept in, ate, then went to go get my plant for the cycle. With help from my mom I was able to find a shrub that will hopefully be in bloom around the time we plant them. My mom and I then went out to do some other chores, while we were out we saw an old family friend that we hadn't seen in a while, it was nice catching up. I'm just settling down for bed now, prepared to start school again tomorrow.
