Candidate Journals

Getting myself mentally prepared for the test on Saturday. Tomorrow and Friday are my only other review sessions. I also need to practice my scissor kick.

Today I finished all of my requirements! I also went to train with Grandmaster Lee! It was really fun because we did some self- defense that involved throwing, and I dropped my partner more than once. oops. overall, today had been good.

today I went to school and almost solved a rubix cube and then I went to TKD and grand master Lee was there and I did my mentor, mentee and black belt class.

Grand Master Lee came to the North Charlotte location to teach a class. It was really fun, because he tells stories and conditions us in fun ways. It is very educational when he explains how we do something and why we do it. I can't wait for next time when Grand Master Lee comes to school.

Today we had a very fun black belt class. We had Grandmaster Lee teaching. It was awesome. We learned some new blocking techniques, and he told us to respect whatever we do and to be sincere about it.

Yikes I have the energy of a pin head. Got to dojang and got some requirements in, not as many as I would have liked, helped in senior wong ho, worked with mentee then had nothing left for adult class so headed home. Dinner, stretching, which is my memitation time, then off to bed. Doc called in another prescription so lets hope that knocks this out of me. Tomorrow is another day.

Today I have to go to swimming. I havnt gone to swimming for like months because of Tae Kwon do and I'm probably REALLY slow.

I cant believe that their are only 4 more days. I cant wait until it is over. we are so close.

Today was just one of those, life is good, next second, life is terrible days. It started off with, my sister and I realizing that we had another math homework assighnment. We had a whole essay about a mathmetician. We quikly did that during our first period, which thankfully we had together, and we got that done. Not so much of the home part of the homework.

today Im going to the eary class to work on all of my 2nd dan things hope ill be ready

I did schoolwork today. Now I am getting ready to go to TKD. Tonight is no contact sparring. Its my favorite class. I look forward to it every week.

I have gone to one class today which is homeschool class. Someone is coming to cook dinner for us tonight and my younger siblings have swim class.

Today was the day I go to show off my somewhat new hair! I had attempted to dye it Sunday but it didn't fully change to the color I wanted since i have black hair! But today was a good day in m ap calc class, since we had won a race against the other classes, we got a movie day and Doughnuts! Class today was fun though! We were all so shocked the testing was this saturday, its been so quick to come!

There practiced a lot of my forms. I'm feeling pretty good about them. Tomorrow I just have to go over hapkido.

Busy day at work, but that's the norm, then off to South Charlotte for focus on requirements. Still not feeling the greatest so pretty much stayed in small room and did not venture out to the big mat to help in class. Stayed for BB class which was great. Worked on Hapkido form 1, now lets see if the brain can remember it. I am still struggling to refresh 14 thru 20, for some reason they do not want to process. Hope for another productive day tomorrow.

Yesterday I got a penny board for my birthday. My birthday happens to be the same day Grand Master Lee comes to our school. It's going to be so much fun.

Today was just a normal day, in tkd class today we just reviewed.

school was pretty cool today. we had a popcorn lab and we got to eat popcorn the entire time while we watched this cheezy bill nye video. we were supposed to be learning about connduction, convection, and radiation. all we learned about is how big or small peoples handfuls can be.

Just came back from school. School was fun today. We switched seets in math class today. In sceince we popped popcorn in different ways. We got to eat them after we were done to. It was fun. Then we watched a movie.

Today, my sister and I helped our older sister Heloise dye all her hair in henna. The Henna was a orangeish, copper, but since she had dark hair you could only see it in the sunlight. With all the extra, I put henna on a long strand near the front. A few hours later, right now, I washed the henna out. The strand was like, carrot orange, since my hair was pretty light, It really showed up. Sadly, later, Hloise had to leave to go back to college. It's all pretty sad.

today I had a lazy day which means I didn't do any requirements. I went to a pizza place and had pizza and I also went to pick out my Halloween costume. I am going to be a jester this year. It is red and black with a mask, gloves, a hat and a shirt with pants. It looks really cool. I cant wait until Halloween. Tonight I am going to watch scary movies with my mom. It is going to be really fun.

today is probably going to be a bad day. my big sister is going to leave for UNC Chapell hill and i guess thats sorta bad. Im exited for tomorrow though. I m going to wear my new AM jeans.

Chilling at ho!me today. Going to go meet my dads awesome high school teachers.

Yesterday I had to take the PSAT and it ran pretty late! I was supposed to take black belt class because they told us it would end at 11 but it finshed at 12 so I couldn't make it to if! :( But after I went to my volunteer at normal time-2pm- and then got to visit my friend at her job!!

HAd some really good review of hapkido forms 2 and 3. Tomorrow i should be getting a lot of miles in.

Today at black belt class we went over EVERYTHING. It was really helpful, I really needed help on my palguay forms. Besides that, I am 99.99% shure that I have everything down. Really happy rn. Goodnight

Today was a very tiring day. After Sparring Class I had to go to my this big program at our Church. It is basically every country sells the specialty food. It was amazing. We had an Indian food stall. We raised more than $700. All profits go to build a new thing at our Church. It was amazing though. It has amazing food. We just came back very tired. Need to get a good sleep.

had a tutoring session with Master Burkart today. It was very helpful. And then helped out the demo team at their performance at St. Lukes

Today we got a huge win in baseball in which I think the final score was 20-4 and I also got a pair of hits

Today we got our pictures taken and my grandma left to go home back to Seattle, Washington. I had a lot of fun getting our pictures taken and i am sad my grandma had to leave. After the pictures i went to black belt class at Master Evans. Then i came back home and played all afternoon.

Please - - -please - - -please let there be some light at the end of the tunnel. Over two weeks with this crud and I am so done with being sick. No class today which really ticked me off but would not have lasted more than 5 minutes and it would not have been fair to all the candidates, last thing they need is to get sick before next weekend. Tried to run a few errands today and that did not work very well. Came home and pretty much was a couch potato with the most strenuous duty of the day being laundry - -yippy what fun. Kept looking at the treadmill and that was about the extent of that - -good intentions but need to be smart. Positive thoughts I am going to wake up tomorrow morning feeling better and get back on track- - if not back to...

Today after black belt class, which was just review, I went and help out wit a taekwondo booth at barnette.

Today I made dinner for my family. It was fun, but I don't know if it is delicious yet. Mostly because I haven't eaten it yet and nobody has tried it yet. I made chicken noodle soup with carrots, celery, onion, broth, chicken, fresh thyme and noodles. I also going to bake cresants to go with it.

today I went to tae kwon do an Yesterday I went to my friends house

right now its breakfast time. i slept in pretty late.

Had a good sleep today. But I badly hurt my toe and hurts when I walk so it might be questionable if I can train today.

Today was Friday, yay tomorrow I get to relax and do fun thing. I had an ok day at school today also.

It was pretty relaxed friday! I went to school, then straight to TKD black belt class. We did stick, staff and regular forms! After TKD I hung out with my friend. I have to sleep relativity early because i have to take the PSAT in the morning tom before black belt class at Master Evins' School!

Today was really fun. I went shopping in the mall and we went to American Eagle, Pacsun, Anthropology, Forever 21 and (hold your horses) Auntie Anne's. It was fun, (I said that twice) I went with my mommy, big sis, twin sis, me, myself, and I. We all had fun. I bought black jeans from AM and then we went to Forever 21 and bought some stuff over they're, (it was all for my big sis because come on! 12 year olds are not supposed to go to that store we still need to get our own sense of style!). Well I hope everyone who read my journal entry had a great day and tell me if you read my journal entry. I just want to know who are the stalkers in my TDK group. I know that I am, I read other people's journal entry ALL the time! :) Well...

Today I went to the mall with my older sister, twin and my mom. We went to Forever 21, American Eagle, and Anthropology. And Antie Anne's ofcourse. I bought, or my mom payed and I got, a new pair of dark skinny jeans fromAmerican Eagel, and OMG! They are so cozy! Then I went to forever 21, just because, I didn't buy anything their,or at Aeries. Hehe. I had an awsome time. And people keep emailing me which is really annoying......then I went to the niehborhood hood party, not for the Penninsula, but for Cabin Creek,our new niehborhood hood that we haven't moved in yet. That was pretty nice too. I was going to go to the homecoming game for Hough, because my bro was playing at halftime, but I was to lazy.............

Today I helped with testing, and it was fun!! Thankfully, I did not have to hold any boards for anyone. It was awesone to cheer people on and see them happy

Today I helped out with testing as well as filled in all my extra credits so that's why there is high number on class on Friday 10/17/2014 :-)

Tomorrow is Saturday and only week from the test I think I am ready for the test!

Another day of requirements with the twins and Marcus. Kiddos are wearing me out :) In a good way! ready for testing to be here! so proud of all the candidates!

Today I went to Master Bercart's school (excuse my spelling) and had my first class there which was a sparing class, that I enjoyed because I met someone name Charley who was really good at sparing. :-)

today I went to school and did a lot of fall things. after school I dropped my sister off at gymnastics and went back to school for curriculum night and then I cam home and ate. 

Today in sparring I got hurt, I got kicked in the jewels, and it's all my fault for not wearing a cup

Today, was a great day... We had no school. Got a bunch of poomsaes done. It was great. Can't wait for tomorrow. Tomorrow I have a day off too.....

Sparring class was pretty fun today since I got a lot of sparring rounds in so yeah

today I went to bercarts school and I loved it for how much stuff was in there and personally I loved it

Today I went to home school TKD. After TKD we picked my dad up and went to IKEA to look at a bed for my sister. We had hot dogs for lunch while we were there. They were pretty good but not as good as Costco's hot dogs.

Today I had a long recess because of highschool was doing an important test.

My sister, Marcus(?), and I were at LKN TKD, and we have finished alot of requirments. I feel really great. I dont know if I am taking sparring class, I'm finished with them. My older sista is coming home from college today, until Saturday, and i'm exited to see her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A bad day of fishing is always a good day of joy. Had the biggest fish in the river on my line today , but felt bad for the poor fish so I let it spit the lure out and swim a way.

Last night my grandma got here from Seattle, WA. I'm probably not going to any classes because we should visit with her.

I'm still at tkd or I am doing another marathon. Wish me luck!

Today I had to pack my TKD uniform before going to school.  I found my belt and pants pretty easily, but the top was the hardest.  I circled the living room about 18 times, the rec room a couple of times, and then I found it in my bedroom

today this is my journal because it is really late and i am really tired. sorry =)

ate whey to much carbs today need to slow down a bit on the rice trained legs today and can barely walk

Did so many requirments with Master Chelley today. Im feeling a little sore and then tomorrow should be the same drill.

Today is my brothers birthday. He's 28 so I was able to give home 29 birthday punches. It was very funny. Worried about my punches a week from today.

Had a great day with the Hedlund sisters and Marcus! Picked them up from school, and did requirements for about 7 hours.....seriously! Marcus also ran 4 miles and worked on his creative form. We did a kick boxing class for our sparring rounds, did push ups and sit ups in sets of 20. Did an hour straight of poom saes, did jump ropes and rolls and falls! While classes were going on, they did more requirements, and since it was green stripe, they got to do alot of kicks with all the little kids! They did a great job, and even agreed to come back tomorrow to do some more!
