Did you understand this title? That’s why I made an intro! Aren’t vowels important? Some would say the vital part of a word. I like to think of them as the last piece of the puzzle you hid in your dresser because you wanted to put in the last piece and “win”!  Now think about your class assistance credits. Maybe you’ve finished them or maybe not, but they are an important part of the cycle. As sun bae nims, we need to learn how to help a colored belt in class, or maybe you get randomly called on to do warmups, while everyone stares at you and you pass out. Not a good scenario, right? That’s why the physical requirements aren’t the only things you should keep practicing after the cycle. If we want to be good instructors and helpful to our Sa Bum Nims, we have to know our stuff and keep assisting even after the cycle is over. Anyway, that’s my journal!  I hp y hv grt nght! (I hope you have a great night!)
