EVERYBODY IS ILL AND WE NEED TO BURN THE PLAGUED!!!!

So firstly, I have the flu, which means for the past two days I have been sleeping, vomiting, gaming, repeat until the day is over. I am not only extremely upset by the fact I cannot work the job I love and make money, but the fact I missed a huge math test that I didn't study for and still plan not to study for because I hate myself :D.   SO YES ITS ANOTHER SHORT JOURNAL BUT WHAT AM I GONNA WRITE ABOUT?!   Like seriously, besides the fact I am writing a musical right now and the first song is almost done being written, what else is there to say. Oh I guess I did audition for a role in a horror short film two weeks ago and I got a message saying I got the role of the character Milo, who is terrified of the dangerous spirit haunting...

Sick day

I woke up ready to finish this week off, I did my homework first thing. After I finished that I went to school. I was feeling a little bit fatigued for the first couple hours of school,  then when I went to science class I strarted feeling really really horrible, so I asked my dad if he could pick me up early from school. After I got picked up early I rested until I went to black belt class.  Class was definitely a bit rough today  but I made it through. Once I got home I was feeling pretty bad but I had dinner  and played uno with my family. Now I am just going to lay in bed and rest while watching some tv.  Good Sleeps!

Pain

It's interesting how there are days where surreal things do in fact happen out of the blue, but more often than not, they are outlandish in a bad way.  The days where things that are surreal in a good way are much fewer, and much more far between.  Surreal things that we want to see often take a lot of work to achieve.  They don't just happen out of nowhere, and they unfortunately are fewer and farther between.  Things that are outlandishly bad that you don't want to believe happen just happen.  And they're way more frequent.  And the work comes after, to try to make things go back to normal.  Although, normal is a relative term.  The normal that I had here so far has been pretty short, depending on how you define it.  If I am to define it from when I was anticipating Tiger Claw and the demo,...

National Chopstick Day. 02/06/25

Today was pretty boring. I got a bunch of my thing done today and still have a very huge headache and sore throat. Some people are sick at my school or starting to get sick so I hope everyone gets better because most of them are the people who make you happy and make you laugh after a long day of nothing but work. I had a lot of trouble with my leg today and just now pulled my neck so it hurts to tilt my head left. Like most people on cycle right now I'm very tired and I think I might be catching whatever's going around. I just really want some sleep right now or a day off. Each is nice. But other than that I think I had a okay day, I hope everyone is getting better and staying safe!

Today I got a jump start with my physical requirements in the morning.  At school we spent time tuning our instruments in band class.  In 4 days a clinician will come and watch us play and grade us. In science we are studying the ISS and we are learning about ancient Rome in social studies. When I got home, I ran 2 miles and finished up the rest of my physical requirements.

I’m really not sure what to write about this evening. My feet really hurt, being a teacher, I’m on them all day. I only sit down at lunch, when I’m planning with my team, or pulling a small group. I could really use a good foot massage. The good thing is tomorrow is Friday. I’m going to go to Harrisburg for sparring and possibly black belt class too !?!?

So today I went to school. My first subject today was PE. I'm starting indoor soccer. Also. PE was very fun. Then after PE I went to mass. We're learning integers in math. Also, my other subject was English. We're writing our personal narrative. She gave me some things to work on but I was able to make some fixes. Hopefully I'll get it right next time. And then I went to taekwondo when I got home. Went to basketball luckily to make it to the taekwondo. A friend had to take me but he was able to did black belt and then came home. How the little snack went to bed and that's my day

Tough morning

Really stiff and sore after last night's sparring and black belt classes.  I normally do a few rounds of push ups and sit ups as well as poomsae and self defense practice early in the morning.  Today I just stretched for 30 minutes.  Felt great, but will have to spend time tonight on all of the requirements.

World Nutella Day - 2/5/25

What a long day! I went to school and came home with a bit of homework which I did before going to TKD class. I worked on my physical requirements, held a mentee session, helped lead a class and got a few more credits thanks to Master Evins and the work I did at the jr instructor camp last weekend. After class, I came home to more homework and to finish my memoir that needs to be turned in tomorrow. I am exhausted and going to bed. Nighty night. PS - my mom made some pretzel bread today which was delish. I am going to try to make it myself and bring it to class next Monday. Get ready! #Bread4

2/5/25 Long day!!!

Today I woke up later than I wanted to so couldn't get my usual done for the physical requirements.  I usually split them and do some in the morning and some in the evening. We reviewed "A jubilant spirit" in band class.  I successfully hoola-hooped in gym (that's embarrassing).  I ran my fastest mile so far today in my neighborhood, did some of my physical requirements, then went to King Tiger.  I did a mentee session, a sparing class, black belt class, and a mentor session. I am finishing up my physical requirements for the day, eating, showering and getting to bed...it's been a long day!

Today was another normal day. I had a few quizzes in school today and practiced my skit with my friends for tomorrow. Tomorrow I also have a math test, I hope I do well! When we got home, instead going to the gym, we took a 2 mile walk on the greenway by our house. I am loving the beautiful, sunny days we've been having lately. Then I quickly got ready for TKD. Today I had my first mentee meeting and got 2 leadership credits in. Now I'm doing some homework, finishing chores, and getting ready for bed.

BEST DAY OF THE WEEK

So I finally feel better like my sore throat ain't that bad no more and my left eye doesn't hurt and even though I woke up a bit late today I was able to get my homework done and go to school. School wasn't that bad like I didn't do much execpt in gym our pacer test was today and I got a 75 which is 35 higher than what I got last time. I didn't do much in the rest of my classes but I had a sub for history! So I didn't have to take notes today for an hour straight. I came home and then went to King Tiger and then went home and showered so my day was a 7/8 overall. Good night

Journal - Day 10

Good evening, everyone! This week has been good. I've finally been catching up on some work I've been procrastinating on for a while now. It feels so good to finally finish work that you've been needing to do for a long time. I didn't go to Tae Kwon Do today, so I was able to finish off a bunch of my requirements and assignments. I am mainly focusing on getting my creative put together as of now, but I still have some time left. I have two tests tomorrow and a long day ahead, but I hope to make the most out of it. I am very excited because I only have around 3 more days of my diet challenge to be over. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Today I got up and got ready for school.   I had 2 pop tarts as we walked to school. When we got to the cross walk this morning we started to cross and there was an old lady who was still going pretty fast but had waved us across and she still hadn't stopped when we were about to walk in front of her car but she waved again, like we were going to slow.  Mom wasn't very happy and yelled (she said a cuss word) at her as she grabbed my arm and sorta pushed me out of the way.  At school we did blocks, it was a normal day.  Then I rode the bus to KT.  I ran with Carter and Nixon today, then had class and did a mentee session.  I finished off my pull ups for the week and did some requirements.  I also did some of...

I’ve never been a fan of sparring, the only reason I’m going is because it’s required for the cycle. After I get my days in, no more for me. That goes for burpees too. I don’t like them. I’m also short on patience today…. off to feed my kitty. See you in black belt class.

Impact

Today I woke up and went to class.  Couldn't focus on the class much.  Had stuff I was dealing with yesterday.  I realized I needed to change my Chinese lab schedule, but I then promptly had to change it back after realizing that this one wasn't going to work.  Guess things are going back to business as usual.  Well, hopefully without distractions, that is.  I got a lot of homework to keep myself busy.  That and Martial Arts Club.  Didn't exactly make it to Shoreview today.  Had a lot to do.  Yesterday left me a lot to do.

I HAVE RETURNED WITH DA COFFEE

So (sips coffee aggressively), after the unfortunate illness that decided to form throughout my body yesterday, I am back with a RANT GIRLIES!   THE NEW SLANG DON'T MAKE SENSE!   I need this new slang explained (oh my lord I sound so old reading back on this). I feel like I am losing any sense of braincells when I hear some of these kids talk in a "normal" conversation. Not only are some of these new slang terms, words, and phrases extremely annoying to listen to, but every single kid I have asked about the definition of the new slang cannot even define the new slang without using the word in the definition or literally cannot even provide a definition. Now, I don't know about y'all, but slang should just be a quick way to get something common across, or juts is a phrase that inflicts comedic affect CONSISTENTLY! Unfortunately,...

Today I woke and got ready for school.   Mom packed me a lunch, my Mexican leftovers!!!  At school we did blocks, at recess we played soccer and my team won 6-1.  I couldn't wait for lunch today...it was SOOOO GOOD!!!! When I got to KT I did bbc stuff and helped out with class, ran with Carter and did a Mentor session with Master Chelley, that ended up being with Sri because Master Chelley had to do a make up testing that she thought was tomorrow (oops!!).  Then we got Wendy's on the way to scouts.  At scouts we got our pinewood derby cars and got them cut. Hopefully this year my car will be really fast. We only have 2.5 weeks to get it ready!  Now I am headed to bed.

National Stuffed Mushrooms Day - 2/4/25

Stuffed mushrooms? Gross. Do people actually eat those things? Anyway, today was a long day. I had a terrible headache after school and a ton of homework so i wasnt able to go to TKD class. I have to write a 4 page memoir for school and decided to write about my first black belt cycle experience. It's pretty fun to share and a good reminder that hard work pays off. So I'll keep working hard on this cycle too. Remember everyone - all our hard work will pay off! Keep going.

How difficult is it to bring up a trash bin….you literally walk by it to walk the dogs….. school was ok. We still have a teacher out and hopefully she will be back tomorrow. My mentee wasn’t at class tonight, but I did manage to get credit for helping some yellow belts with their self defense. Then I stayed for the 7:15 class.  Time for a shower before I turn into a pumpkin. Glad I have half day planning tomorrow.

Today I had to get up earlier than usual to get to school. At school it was a fairly normal day, I have to put on a short play for my social studies class on Thursday, so we practiced that. It's about the Industrial revolution and traditional, Market economies. After school was the usual routine with going to the gym and running. When I got home, I played iPad because I didn't do double classes today. At class I got a leadership credit in. Tomorrow, I have my first mentee meeting, finally.

Class pet

Today we got a 6 month old guinea pig! She is so cute! Now we have 2 guinea pigs, one fish and over 3 snails as are class pets! They are all so adorable especially the guinea pigs. The one we had first was donated from one of my class mates and her name is Princess, but we have named the 6 month old yet for now we are calling her little one. The fishes name is Buba because his mouth always goes buba buba. We have to many snails to name them all so we call them all Shelly.🐹🐟🐹🐚🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐚

Falling

Today was a drag.  The last part of today was a drag.  I just spent 6 hours dealing with things I wish I didn't have to deal with.  I was going to check out the Creative Writing club, but I couldn't bring myself to go.  I couldn't really bring myself to do much after 6 today.  Some of the stuff from last semester is starting to affect this one.  And now I'm sick of falling down.

#Bread3 Was a total success! A lot of people seemed to like it! I liked making the blueberry cream cheese prosses a lot more and I learned some new techniques like flouring the blueberry's so they don't sink and folding them so they don't smush. Over all today was a rather fine day. I was nice out and I got some running and requirements done and I just had a really peaceful day. I'm super tired from all this work and I am soooooooo ready for a four day weekend. I started on a little gift for master one of my masters so I'm super excited to finish it!

Yay….another day of fun. Had a teacher out which means we had to disperse.  Found time to do my requirements at school during recess by walking the field perimeter with some of my students. Tried calling my dad again today, and left another message….he usually calls me back, but hasn’t yet. Getting a little worried.  Hubby tried to help me do a pull up today, but that won’t look good on an ‘end of cycle physical’…..sooooono pulls ups for me. My cardiologist says..no.

THE PLAUGED MUST BE BURNED ALONG WITH THE ROTTING!!!!

Ok so before I get the cops called on me, I am NOT a serial killer. I have no intentions (currently :D) to commit a vile crime on the life of another. However, to explain this title and to not be arrested before I can even find a tolerable human being I just decide to spend the rest of my life with,   THE CHILDREN ARE SICK WHICH MEANS I AM NEXT?!   So, my sister during Jr. Instructors camp came down with a viral illness that caused her so much pain that it put her and myself into tears. She vomited and was to exhausted and ill to the point where she had to leave Jr. Instructors camp early. So, she got to suffer in a comfortable bed while I spent the overnight stay fighting with my near un-chargeable computer (I think the charger be broken me lads) juts to...

Unfortunately, I am still quite sick so I mostly stayed in bed today. I don’t know if I’m going to go to school tomorrow, it depends on how I feel in the morning. Hopefully I won’t be sick for much longer.

I've had a lot of fun today but had some disappointment when I realized I didn't do my requirements today... Today was pretty chill. I woke up at around 10:05 and had some pineapple for breakfast. (I'm starting the 30 day nutrition challenge) Today was my grandma's birthday! (Love you grandma <3) I also went shopping today, mostly cause my sister wanted some new clothes, I didn't get much just some gum and a drink.

Journal #21--2/2/25

When I woke up this morning I got on the switch and played some Pokemon.  After that we had to get ready to leave Brien's and head to church.  We had Bojangles on the way to church.  I went to Sunday school and then mom had nursery but no kids came so we went over to church.  Today is the 1st Sunday so it was communion day.  At the end of the service me and another kid got to split the left over bread!  Then we headed home and had lunch.  I did my bbc stuff and relaxed an played some more games on my switch.  I had dinner a little while ago and took a shower now I am heading to bed.

I'm glad that this morning I could get up without any alarm. It felt good to get some rest after a long day/night. Today was a pretty relaxed day, I was still super tired, so we didn't do much. My mom made us a delicious breakfast and after that I spent some time playing outside and getting some requirements in. Around 3:00 I had to say bye to my dad; he's going on a business trip until Thursday... I miss him. Then, my sisters and I played with our neighbor for the first time in a few weeks. Then we ate dinner and tonight we're watching the Grammy's.

So as the cycle continues, I have my curriculum sticker, that we never received, that is more like a list of things I need to be able to do. Working one of the other black belts, he came up with a great idea…make a list with 3 check boxes…..1st box, I know it. 2nd box, I can do it. 3rd box,I’m confident. I have a lot of work to do. I’m jealous of anyone that has someone they can work / practice with at home….because I don’t.  ps…I still despise burpees. They are horrible.

Journal - Day 9

Good evening, everyone! I've been slacking on writing my journal every morning, but I am determined to start writing it every day now. This weekend, I helped out with JR Instructors camp, and it went pretty well. I've been getting pretty tired and lazy recently, which is not great at all, so I am persevering through it every day and determined to get my work done. I have a lot of schoolwork to finish and requirements to do for the day. I am very happy because my nutritional diet challenge is coming closer and closer to a conclusion, meaning I can have some room for sweets again. I have a class to attend to in an hour and am planning on finishing up a few more assignments. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

today is Saturday. I did mt tkd & went on a 4-mile run. I had fun & listened to music on the way. I don't understand taxes because why would the government who knows what you own not tell you & companies make you pay for software to tell you how much you owe? that is all.

Bounce place

Today i woke up and went strait to my parents room to hang out in the morning then we watched TV. I went downstairs completely forgetting about my black belt requirements 😩 So I eat breakfast and got dressed to go to a bounce park with one of friends named Michael! It was so much fun we went to "fear less" before heading to a park after that. Then we drove Michael home it is very convenient because we live in the same neighborhood so after I went home to. Then I did my running for the day and played piano! Sofar I still haven't done my other requirements for the day, BUT I will do them later.DONT YOU DOUBT THAT!!!

Saturday/Sunday

I went to the rec center yesterday. I used some of the weight machines, and ran indoors. I'm practicing jump roping more, but still not that good at it. I started looking at online videos of jump ropers, and its pretty amazing what they do. I visited with a friend later in the day. Today, Sunday is my birthday. We don't celebrate birthdays like we did when I was little, so it's a normal day, but it stinks because I went to bed last night with a sore throat and woke up feeling alot worse. The plan for today is bed rest, and Walmart chicken soup. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WTo9lCCxi-1my1mYf79GXliGiFt4zYIt/view?usp=sharing

Skiing

Today I woke up to go skiing with my aunt.  Now that I am closer to where my aunt lives, I can go skiing more often.  I had plans to invite someone else last time I went but it kind of fell through.  Both times I have skied within the school year were fun though.  Skiing takes my mind off all this workload I have.  After that I went to my usual gym session to get in requirements and also because I like torturing myself (Again, takes my mind off things).  I finished the day with some schoolwork and a session of Mario Party with my friends.

Boring=tired?

So today I ran a 5k and just sat around watching stuff and playing video games.  My cousin came over and she and my sister and brother are making a HUGE racket.  And if I don't join them, they will probably trash my room based on experience. So, PEACE OUT.

National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day? 02/01/25

After a LONG night of J.R. Instructors camp I'm finally able to get a good amount of sleep. Everything hurts, I forgot how bad it hurts to stand on concrete for 12 hours and also having screaming kids everywhere. I had a little trouble with some kids and I obviously can't help that fact but It's whatever I guess. I didn't do very many requirements today and I just hopped straight into bed and slept for a good 4 hours. I really don't feel myself right now and everything is really catching up to me and I feel like I'm taking a lot of things rather seriously and not having a good time as a kid anymore so I'm just really sad about that right now. I just need someone that I can trust to talk to. I have a lot of problems but I feel like after my 3 hours...

I can’t believe I’ve spent the first day of February bring sick. I wasn’t able to do much today, given that I am sick, but luckily I am a little ahead in requirements so I don’t have to do any catching up. Hopefully I will be somewhat better tomorrow.

Hello, from after camp time. I enjoyed a great Jr. Instructor camp. This was my second camp, so I knew what to expect. I had a great time getting in the exercise, training and being with great friends. My favorite parts of training were the nunchucks and gymnastics.  I actually got some sleep too! It was quick and I'm tired, but it was a great time.  Thank you to our Masters and Instructors for a fun Jr. Instructors camp.  Tomorrow will be back to normal.  Have a good Sunday tomorrow.

02/01/25 for 01/31

HI, sorry I missed yesterday but I didn't get the chance before going to Jr. Instructors camp.  My Friday started at 6am because I had to be at school earlier than normal for book club. The weather was nice so it was a good day at school.  I got home, finished some requirement and checked my bags and when my brother got home we headed to KT LKN.  I got to see my Mom for a little over an hour before heading off to camp. She was gone to a training class all week too. I will hit camp in the next post.

Today was day two of Jr. Instructor's camp. I woke up at 6:00, I only got 6 hours of sleep.... so, I am really tired. However, it was a good experience, and I had fun helping out for my first time, even though I was shy and nervous. As soon as I got home, I cleaned myself up and just relaxed all evening. I will have to work double tomorrow to catch up on my requirements because I was too tired to come home and do them. Night night!
