Arvaan's Diary - Day 7 Of Black Belt Journey

Today was the day of the pre test! I woke up super early at 5:00 and ate some eggs. I felt good because I get to run laps, and its also Saturday! As soon as I arrived at the track, I started running but was told that its not my turn yet! I was so exited that I forgot how hard the pre test would be. I had to do four laps around the track but I did some extra! When I came to the taekwondo pre test, We instantly started and I introduced myself to my partner. His name was Jacob! We all started off with the physical test. I did pretty good on it. Next was poomsaes because we did not have time for self defense. I was sweating buckets-a LOT! We also had a written test which I did. Once our test was finished, we got some donuts and went home with a happy face! :D
