For some reason, I slept in really late today. When I finally got out of bed at 10:00, I did some of my requirements. Halfway through, I took a break and worked on my creative form. Soon after, I got back to the daily requirements. Later in the day, I went over to the weekday back belt class. After class, I was able to get a mentor session. I was really able to focus on bolo and anyo isa. I really need to start working more on my weapon forms because I tend to exclude those in my daily practice. After class, I came home and relaxed for the rest of the night. It's just me at the house tonight because both of my parents are in South Carolina visiting family but I had to stay back home because I couldn't afford to miss tomorrow morning's class. Can't wait for week 2 to begin tomorrow!
