So close to the end. So many things to wrap up and finished.

Updated the website and matched it with my booklet. Now I know what I need to focus on finishing. I have learned all the forms required for my belt, and I feel pretty good with most things. Weapon forms are probably the one thing I can work more on.

Essays are typed and made a cheat sheet of what I need to review on the study guide.

So I still working on my creative form. I have something that complete and prepare, but there's more I want to add.

Today I made matcha tea for the first time. I'm excited to keep working on it and trying different recipes. I really want to work on enhancing my drink making skills (coffee, tea, etc.). While I was drinking it, I find a few videos on YouTube on how improve the flavor and different add-ons.

I worked on poomsaes using the Kukkiwon Youtube. I only review Il, Eh, and Sam.

Ms. Suzanne and I worked on hopkido 4 last Saturday with guidance from the Grandmaster Lees demo video and in person guidance from Instructor Jen. I didn't think I could learn hopkido from reviewing videos, but after watching hopkido 5 today, multiple times, I feel comfortable with the steps. I'll still need to practice it in person and with an instructor for technique, but at least I'm more familiar about it. Hopikdo it not my favorite thing to practice, so learning it can be a bit overwhelming.
