#24

I was able to attend 2 classes again tonight (Senior Tigers and Teen/Adults), which is a good way to rack up some leadership and leadership 2 credits.  Assisting the lower ranks learn their poomsaes and self-defenses really helps me learn what I need to know for the test.  Before I the cycle started, I was so focused on Koryo, Bocho 1-step and Special Self Defense, Staff #1 and my board breaking kicks that I'd kind of forgotten the poomsaes below Chil Jung.  These last 4 weeks assisting in the classes have helped me remember them.
