birthday party

today i woke up at 7 which was a great load of help to me, i am no longer exhausted now that i got 9 hours of sleep. i ate my breakfast and did my laundry, then just sat around and watched tv until it was about 10:00, then we left to go to the blackbelt class at master Evans. i stretched during the time we were waiting for class to start. once class started we did a normal warm up then we did some requirements and wang ho forms, then master Knight took the bo cho dans to the back and we worked on the forms again but more closely this time, focusing on every detail, we also worked on hurricane kicks. we went back to the normal do jang and worked on hapkido. after class was over, i went over to my neighbors house to mow her lawn. i went home and did my forms and self defense (i chose random ones to see if i knew them after 2 full sets and im confident with myself in self defense and poom saes). then i did my push ups, kicks, pull ups, sit ups, and burpees. i went out for a run which was difficult, my legs hurt and i have been using them for 6 days like this non stop. i went home and took a shower and had pizza for lunch, which probably wasnt the best idea because im going to a birthday party which probably will have pizza there. im all packed up and am about to leave for his party, its going to be fun :).
