A little late, but first day of long journey

Finally got access to the website! Which means this is my official first day of the cycle. Going for my 4th dan will be hectic and long but I guess thats an obstacle that I have to overcome.

Today was a somewhat decent day at TKD charlotte school. Not many after school students so I was able to focus on doubling up on my requirements. Surprisingly, there were a lot of junior tigers in class today! Helped out with the white belts as usual so did a lot of fun workouts and kicking with them, which also helped me knock of some of my kicking requirements for the cycle. 

Been back at TKD for 6 months now after taking a 4 year break for college and research, but it feels like nothing has changed. Same atmosphere as it's always been. 

Looking forward to this long cycle with all of you!
