Not liking push-ups at all today. Would rather do sit-ups all day long. Hoping my knee starts feeling better soon. Geumgang under the noodle last Saturday made my knee very angry. Very, very angry.

Today I had to take the math EOG it was easy but took long to do I hated the last three days of being silent today and the other days. Today at tae kwon do I got a sweaty workout like doing push ups punches and doing squat thrust.

2 field trips in one week. I was up so early. UGH!!!!

Wow, what a beautiful day! Had a great workout at CrossFit this morning. These requirements are eroding away...slowly but surely.... I'm glad to have some days off on this long weekend. Even though we are closed Friday, still planning on getting in a good class at the gym in the morning. Hopefully, the weather will be nice and I can get outside for awhile this weekend!

Headed to CLT to get some real TKD training over three days. So looking forward to training with other students and seeing old friends.

Yesterday was a good tuesday. Did my requirements and assignments in the day. Master Randle and I spent some time together again in the evening going through all my stuff. We had a good Black Belt class as well. It is getting real. Just 8 more days after today.

Had a nice day at work and then a terrific evening at King Tiger North Charlotte. Had a nice 4 mile run in 36 minutes, lots of kicks in BB class and good PMAA class. Looking forward to my drive to Raleigh tomorrow to visit my folks. My father will be 87 on Thursday. The icing on the venture is that Jack will be meeting me there and then coming home with me on Thursday. Have a great week everyone!

Yesterday was a relaxing day. Nothing much. Did my requirements and then took my regular class and Hyper Pro. We did sword training at Hyper. Its really cool. 9 more days until testing!!

Still pushing out requirements, only a few more days left !!

Monday's are still awesome. Unfortunately my schedule change for Spring Quarter has me working 1230 to 2245 on Monday & Tuesday for the next 11 weeks. Today was fun at the LKN Dojang due to it being Fitness Day. Had a lot of fun with my two classes. Thanks to Masters Conrad & Chelley for allowing me to teach these classes during this cycle. It has been awesome.

Today had a breakfast it was bad. I had to do a test and I took another test. When it was time to play I met with friends and played tag it was fun then I went inside and took another test and then went to lunch it was good and then went to specials it was art we did leaf rubbing and did clay with we made birds and it looks awesome. Then we did math it was fractions how to compare fractions and which one is bigger and which one is smaller. Today at tae kwon do we did sword training for Hyper pro it is a program that does different weapon training and then helped my brother in his regalar class it was super fun.

My day was good. I study for my ss test to tomorrow. I think that I will go good on my test tomorrow.

Exhausting day for me today. I have a bunch of homework and drove home. Then I went to 2 and 1/2 Tae Kwon Do classes. I felt like falling asleep in the third, because i was so tired

Spent the past 3 days in Athens GA for work. Was able to get in one session of training at my old training room when I was in school there. It felt good. I also just found the King Tiger You Tube channel with all the self defenses. Not sure where my brain was at but I am glad I finally found them.

I'm jumping back into my training and the push-ups are killing me, even when I use my nifty "push up pump" that helps me keep my body in the correct form. I have been very preoccupied with work. I have to give two lectures at the Heart Rhythm Society's annual International convention this May and I'm scared out of my mind. I am extremely nervous. You would think after 20 years as an Electrophysiology nurse I would be a little more confident.

I am so tired because I have been up for a while and was on a field trip since 7:00 even though I had to wake up at 5:45.

Its spring break this week for us. Been working on my Kumon assignments and getting my poomsae and self defense done in the morning. Just came back from library - Monday's we have "paws for reading". Been going every week with my sister. We both love to read books and we do a lot of reading in the summer too in the library and at home. I have my Tae Kwon Do class at 5.25pm and then Hyper Pro. Just 10 more days before our final test.....

Had a good weekend camping, I reviewed a little bit then, had fun camping. Then that my 2 year old niece came over.We had fun today

Today I did more requirements. I spent the whole day inside doing school work. I'm planning to get everything 0 by end of this week and just review the last week.

My bay is good. I study for my ss test. And I had to do index cards. But so far to day was good.

2 weeks until the BB test and I am so excited! I can not wait until the test! YEAH!!!!

Had a relaxing Saturday yesterday. Working on my details now and taking time in my poomsae and self defense. I have also been working on my pull up bar as well. I played wii games yesterday with my dad and had fun.

We had a really good Saturday at King Tiger. We had our community service project, black belt class & sparring. Un fortunately I had to leave sparring early. It was for a good reason though.

Going camping tonight. Then gonna do requirements as well

I had a pretty decent day because my computer kept bugging out when I was on the black belt web page. And the good part is that I finished all my black belt requirements.

Today was fun I did hyper pro and black belt it was super fun beacuse we went over stuff that we need to know for testing. Today for lunch I ate chil dog and whopper jr it was good today I felt good going to tae kwon do to do my community project today.

Today I finished my physical requirements. Did you finish? 

I had a good day yesterday at school. Yay!!! Its spring break next week. I get to take rest and make sure i work on the finer details on my poomsaes and self defense. Two more weeks before the final test. We did our community service project today and I felt really bad for the kids. They really need support and I will do my best to give my share. Going to be a lazy saturday afternoon

My day is going good so far. I woke up recently. I hope that every one is having a good day today.

This was supposed to be for last night but I forgot haha, everything has been finished as my requirements go and even though I am finished that doesn't mean I will quit working out. BLACK BELT STRONG !!!

My dad is making me write a very long paper........... yay.

Hi I really hope this is not too late. Tomorrow I'm going to spend all morning with Master Chelly because my mom hates me (just kidding, she'll just be busy) but I'm sure it's going to be fun and extremely productive. I can expect most requirements to be done by tomorrow.

My day was good. I Really didn't do much today. We had in door pa to da because it was raining .

14 MORE DAYS TILL TESTING. PRACTICING REALLY HARD AND I AM REALLLY NERVOUS. I had a good day and I cannot wait till tomorrow for BBC. See you guys tomorrow.

I had a great day at king tiger and school. I also had fun at recess.

Today I am trying to finish my cycle by doing everything now while I still have the time.

Spent most of last week and the weekend in Washington, DC visiting some family (wife's side). Honestly didn't get too many requirements done on this trip. The hotel did have a gym, which I used twice to do some things. We stayed in downtown DC, so the miles were very easy to get in. It was fun, and a great change of scenery for a bit. I need to make sure I am journaling more frequently...it is very hard to get caught back up if I get behind on those!

Had a very productive two days. Finding got my old truck fixed , yes it may have cost me around 150.00. But it save me in the long run. Now if I can get another 27 years out it ,OK may be 7 I will be happy. The most enjoyable day was yesterday , went from ONE password at work to 5 passwords. How I remember the days when we never had any. The good old days.

Yesterday in my swim class my master asked if i was ready for a challenge. The competition was to do the racing dive and then streamline across the 25 mts and reach the wall the other side without coming up. I did the challenge twice and won... I took the day off from requirements yesterday; however back to schedule from today onwards. I have collected few stuff for the community service project and excited to be part of this project.

I am so sore! I can hardly move my legs. It doesn't matter though, I'll live. :)

I have quite the busy weekend ahead, but it is a very good thing. Every morning I thank the Lord that I am able to rise and accomplish whatever the day presents. My morning prayer is that I glorify the Lord as I do them. I look forward to seeing everyone for our community service effort tomorrow. Let's share our gifts.

Assisted in testing tonight. Need to do this more often. So much fun to watch these kids earn their next belt!

Good night at class tonight, going through some hard times in my life right now trying to figure out what to do... but still working hard to get my black belt

my day was good. I did my reading map testing today and it was good.

my day was good. I did my reading map testing today and it was good.

I had a great day at Tae Kwon Do and school. I also ran 4 and a half miles.

Today was ok. I have to remember to go out and buy a cup this weekend though. I feel like i'm doing fine on my requirements.

This has been an awesome cycle. I cannot thank everyone enough for every part they have played. I would like to give a shout out to Masters Chelley for all their efforts in keeping us all on track. I would also like to give a shout out to Masters Hartle & Cavazos for working with me on Hapkido and PMAA. 16 days until testing!

I have got some stuff left to do. I will finish and become a BLACK BELT!

My day was good. Just did my regular class and leadership. I did the short sticks with Instructor Weeks. He went very fast and i matched him pretty well. I really liked doing it.

Good class tonight, had a "sparring" like class it was Good really tired right now good night

My day was good. I had no homework today. It felt great that i didn't have to do work when I came homework.

Today is a new day to do something new so go do it.

I did it! I finished the physical and written exams! I am really happy! ;)

Yesterday was a normal day at school. Finished all my home work while coming in the bus so that i can watch TV for a little. Went for BB class. Master Randle and i reviewed my stuff again and then I came home after the BB class. I was tired and went straight to bed...

We are rounding third and heading for home. Hopefully we will trot across the plate and not have to slide in headfirst. I had a very busy 48 hours yesterday through today. I still got in 2 miles yesterday and 2 today along with a BB Class, a PMAA Class and requirements. The bummer was missing classes on Monday.

What a beautiful day , was able to get my tax's done. How much I love that. Then a TKD class at lunch. Then was able to mow my lawn ,my neighbors lawn and a common area. Then TKD and PMAA tonight. Now tomorrow this all about truck time and save myself from buying a new / used truck.

Sorry for the delay of putting stuff in. Yesterday and today were pretty busy days. We walked a TON during our trips and ran across roads. I went to the hotel's gym every night while was meh. Well I'm back so it's much better.

My day was good. Had map testing today and it was not fun. Have fun what every you are doing.

Gave blood today. Then later tonight at Belmont we had a good Black Belt class tonight, reviewed material for the black belt test. All went good :)

Today I had to help my sister get yuk chang down. She got it maybe

I had fun at school and had science at the end of the day. I also went to subway.

After a few days of hitting the gym again I think I am back on track. I've hit each of the physical test requirements (but not immediately after one another) except the kicks. I need to find a bag to kick.

I sent a note to my class teacher last week on the community service project and my friends and teacher told that we will collectively come up with few items by tomorrow. I am really thankful to have such good classmates and friends. I had a good day yesterday. Came from school and then went straight to the library where my sister and I read books. There is a program called "Paws for Reading" and a lot of kids come and do that. We do this every monday. Then i went to Tae Kwon Do and Master Evins made us do a lot of rolls in Hyper..

My day was good. I got a 79% on my test for tkd. I almost forgot to do my journal .

Today Master Chelley needed a lot of help. A lot of instructors were not here. She e mailed everyone and a ton of people showed up to help. It was a fun class. I took the family class after and I worked on pow gue. I did not have a lot of home work so I could have stayed longer. See you guys tomorrow.
