Today was kind of boring at school. I didn't get much work to do, but that's fine. Taekwondo on the other hand, was a lot more interesting for me. I was able to get a free standing handstand push-up, I can consistently get a one hand cartwheel, and I almost got a 540 kick. I know I don't need to do it, but it looks super fun to do. I worked on some Anyo Isa, Bolo, and double stick form. I was able to get about 17 pull-ups, so I need to amp it up a little more with my pull-ups if I want to do better than my pre-test. I'm really tired, so I'm going to bed, goodnight!

I'm back today to journal about some of my experiences so far in black belt cycle. So far I'm proud of what I've done in cycle. for the first week I had to do double to the stuff because we had been away at California. after that week we got into the process of going to the Northern Regional Rec Center and did all of our stuff there. yesterday I went to a birthday party and had a lot fun but I had to go home to all the stuff that I still had to do. I did all my stuff before this journaling session and I was tired and sore from yesterday.
