Today has been a good break day. After school, I ate a snack and finished my new skill essay. I did some push and sit-ups. During school, I had a Spanish and US history test. We have our Chromebooks now and things are improving in my school.
Today I missed cross country practice because I accidentally left my clothes for practice at home. I made up the time by staying after school for a while in the art studio and got some work done.
Hey blog, have not posted in a while for reasons but one of the main reasons is because I have been sick. It started on Wednesday and carried over into today which is Friday but I’m feeling way better than I did yesterday. Yesterday which was the 29th I had multiple fevers, felt lightheaded, had multiple headaches, felt cold when it was hot outside then got hot after that. Just a whole bunch of up and downs but next I should be back in business and hitting the ground running.
Me and my friend were chatting the other night and she had to write a essay about the life events that shaped her life. And she felt kind bad that 3/4 life events were negative. We kept talking, and I told her that we change and grow from experiences. When we get comfortable for too long, it can led us to stagnated growth. So life is going to throw us things and make us uncomfortable, but a positive spin of it is is you're going to growth and change. I'm not happy that I was diagnosed with Grave's disease, but I appreciate the person I change to because I dealt with Graves. I think I could have been this motivated, independent, hard-working person years ago, but I think because I was so use to being comfortable and not pushing myself more, I wasn't........This journal is very jumbled and a bit confusing,...
Today is Friday and I'm at home doing my school work. Hope Academy is a Christian school that has a university model that does 3 days at the school and two days at home. It is a great school and I really like it. We did two hours of math today which was a bit hard because we had to do a lot of work with big numbers of population differences of different countries. My requirements are going ok. Still have a lot of work to do and a lot of improvement. My dad is helping a little bit. I am very excited about the seminars coming up. Can't do some sticks!!
yesterday I got to Atlanta and we went to a lot of places it is very fun i won’t be doing as much requirements though????
One more day of work before a long weekend. The intent is to get caught up on some things. I hoped pushups would have been less of a struggle by now, but not the case. Plenty of catching up to do on pushups.
This is my Monday at work, And what a Monday, Went to Jack the nose of an airplane, Went through 3 jacks that did not work, On the last Jack the did not work we had to jacket it by hand. The air pump on a Jack was broken ,myself and another mechanic had a good workout jacking it by hand.????️♂️????️♂️????️♂️
Went to sparring class today. I am trying to balance school and the cycle. I want to do 108 push and sit-ups per day. I wrote a paragraph of my New Skill Essay. I will be doing community service this week or next week.
Went to 9Rounds today and did worked out, did all my pushups and situps in 30 mins. Had a mentor session with Master Natasya, worked on kicks. Now Im just working on some homework with a friend.
Hello everybody. We have currently gotten into the full swing of school and I've made lots of new friends. Taekwondo is challenging but fun as always. Hope you all have a great week.
Things are finally starting to settle into routine of going to school and then practice and then class, but this morning the routine was broken by a doctor visit. It was just a visit that I have to go to every 3-4 months to keep an eye on my breathing issues; in some aspects it was better, but in others it was worse. There are too many variables to accurately determine what is worsening some things, and in order to prevent other aspects from worsening as well, my dose for my daily inhaler was brought back up.
Worked on a biology assignments where I had to classified 50 different organism, which was really nice. Taught class today at King Tiger, was super nervous/excited about it. The class was bigger than what I'm use too.
My work days are long. I go to bed early because I wake up early and there just doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day. I did well with requirements today but I didn’t have much time for anything else after I got home from work. Pushups are challenging, but I feel myself getting stronger.
Had a awesome morning with school owners and masters. G M Evins gave us a awesome workout. Thank you sir.
Today was great, I woke up at 5;30 as usual and went to school at 6. Then I went to math, French and band which were all not boring then had lunch and went to science . After that I went home at 2:15 and found out that my favorite game terraria had been updated I know that sounds nerdish but I assure you it is noteworthy I haven been waiting for that for five years. I also studied French on the bus and when I got home I did the rest of my homework and went to tae kwon do. All in all a wonderful day.
Today I decided to pick the kids up earlier at carpool so they would have more time to chill out at home this afternoon. This being said I would knew I would have time to practice my self-defense while I waited. I am learning to embrace discomfort. I need to not be so hard on myself when I make a mistake and just roll with it. I need to be compassionate with myself and my mistakes in order for me to get better. I need to take a deep breathe and not panic. I need to learn to enjoy myself when I’m doing TKD.
Today, I did some pushups before I left the house for work. It sure makes a difference on my shoulders and wrists having less to do after class. Worked with Master Tucker on self-defense color belt all the way up to 2nd Dan one steps before class and with Master Cavazos and Master Tucker after class on 3rd Dan one steps and belt self-defense. We also did quite a few kicks in class.
Today was the second day of school and it was great. I got my schedule fixed so now I can graduate early and go to community college for free. This year is going to be challenging but not as challenging as my other years of Highschool.
Today I had my first cross country meet of the season, and it went pretty decently. It was on a course we’ve never run before, and the humidity made it difficult to breath. Almost directly after I went to black belt class; I was struggling in class because I couldn’t shake the lightheadedness.
I’m way behind on my requirements. It’s going to be difficult to catch up, but I’m going to have to do it.
Today I got to school and I saw all of my friends which I am still happy about and I got to see my orchestra teacher which is nice my social studies teacher which is nice and my science teacher which is also very nice. When I was heading home I realized the backpack I wanted was here which was good and todays sparing is also good because I went up against Nate and I did not get hurt as much as I usually would.
Got up this morning and saw it was going to rain. O will Start knocking out some requirements, Do some laundry and do some shopping. Then on rain . Ok do the Yard work. A good day.
Today my school got lockers and chrome books. The hallways are getting very crowded. The chromebooks are good however. I went to the Huntersville school for sparring class today. Their facility is very nice. I love the mirrors near the class to see what you're doing. Master Chelley and Conrad Harte did a great job. Sparring class was kind of tough. Lots of kicks.
Hi everyone. I have had a more calm week this past week. I have worked hard on my cycle and have found free time after homework sometimes. I am not looking forward to all the homework I have to come this up coming year but I am looking forward to all my adventures to come.
up early, knocked out physical requirements. Flying to NYC today for work...going to be meetings all day and then later dinner and then meetings again all day tomorrow. Will need to do as much as I can in the hotel gym.
Monday and full work day today...calls and meetings all day. up early, knocked out some requirements, 9Round in the afternoon and than back to work for follow-up and emails to end the day. Tired today...
Had a really early flight home this morning and then a full day at work. Trying to at least get my tracking caught up. I have less catching up to do as a result of this trip than most previous trips this year. It looks like I have been working on self-defense disproportionately to poomsaes, but at least now I can remember most of the newer I ones. I still have plenty more to work on. Tomorrow will come soon enough.
Tomorrow is the first cross country meet of the season for my school, and I’m fairly nervous about it as the season just started. We got our uniforms today which makes the meet and season feel a bit more real to me. Hopefully it goes well.
Today was a great last first day of high school I will ever have. Im going to be honest I really liked all my classes: not to mention this is by far this was the best first day of school I have had. When I got home I ate Alfredo that I cooked up and then headed to go work out. I had a pretty good workout it was fun and long, after that I headed to work. I was helping out in class I had a pretty fun time teaching students how to do hop step kicks. Well know I have to study a little bit then hit the hay. Duces.
Had a easy day at work. But the clock on the wall Seem like it wasn't moving at all.
Long and busy day. It was first day of after school at King Tiger. Classes were huge, I just played games and kicks with a little review. A lot of kids were new, or were gone over the summer. Also, it nice to have a fun game-like class every once in awhile.
Today was the first day of school with the scholars attending. It was a hectic morning, but we all made it through okay. I then was able to work in a workout, which I definately needed. Then I picked up my little man and had dinner with my family before heading back out for TKD class tonight.
Did not do any requirements today. But i cleaned and decluttered my room. I sold/donated most of my clothes today and I cleaned under my bed. I also meal prep today. My mom gone the whole week, usually I make breakfast and lunch, but she handles dinner since I always come home late. Made homemade pizza! Finish up some homework. I don't like how one of my assignments is coming out, so ill tackle it tomorrow with a more cleared head.
Today was overall pretty relaxed. After I got home from church I went on my run, did my other requirements, and then started going through old clothes to donate them. This took a couple hours but it’s something I’ve been meaning to do for quite a while now. Also, I was able to finish my oil painting.
Good day ,nice and cool. Good day to get in some miles. Had to go a little slower on the last mile.
Yesterday I went to sparring and BBC. During sparring, we did some sparring rounds and lots of kicks. During BBC we did kicks, nun-chucks, and stick techniques (which I'm not sure what the name is). During the hour between sparring and BBC, I went on a mile run with some other Bo Cho Dans and others. Thank you, Mrs. Badia, for motivating me to run!
I woke up at 6 am to start getting ready for the new school year. Then went to sparring and it was really fun. After sparring went a run in the rain and it was kind of chilly but it felt really nice. After that had black belt class and it was very fun and exhilarating.
Today was an emotional day. Saw a lot of family and friends that I don't see often, or haven't seen for years. It was also a little disappointing since some we were expecting, were unable to make it. I have had a few different people volunteering to help me with self defense, so have been able to practice that some with a person, rather than just in the air. Had the opportunity to get a rowing lesson from my rowing coach cousin on the Schuylkill River in front of Boathouse Row in Philadelphia. This cousin is like my sister, so it was great to spend some quality time with her and learn a bit about one of her passions for the first time.
today was interesting. I started by spending the morning at tae kwon do. After that I was brought to lunch by Mathew and his Father (it was delicious) the place we went to was called the tin tin something and is located across the street from Grand Master Evans. after lunch I was brought home and went to my friends house for the afternoon. I returned back to my house at around five and had dinner at around seven with my family.
What a big difference from yesterday weather, One day I'm sweating the next day I'm looking for a sweatshirt to put on. Felt good about doing my requirements today.
Today I have been working on Coding a lot for my new skill I am making a game by JavaScript and HTML. it has been very tiring. I feel like all I am doing is catching bugs now but here's the link file:///C:/Users/home/Desktop/Nintendo%20Universe%20-%20Hunt%20for%20the%20Dream%20Stone.html not the best but I like to go for my all Please comment your response to my game I need all the help I can get ( if anyone knows how to code please tell me)(this game is still in beta)if the link does not work tell me or try to copy and paste it.
Today was a day of learning for me. My takeaways from today's classes were: to videotape myself to see my progress and areas of neednever question a senior belt...duhnever ask about credits during cycleeven when I think I'm extending my, I'm not enoughchill out (which I already new, but is a big work in progress) This black belt journey is tougher then I thought in certain ways. Prior to this experiences I knew that: I didn't like making mistakes; I'm too hard on myself; and I psych myself out and get 'into my head' too often and too fast. Even though I knew theses things about myself they are blaring loudly now and can't be avoided. I'm on this journey to face them head on and hopefully conquer them. I'm not even close to being there 'yet', but I have plans in place to help myself along the way. I need...
Today didn't exactly go as planned. I had to stay home from school today because I wasn't feeling well, which also meant that I had to miss cross country practice and multiple classes that you usually can't afford to miss because of the workload. Despite that, I got what work and requirements I could done, and got some painting done.
Last day of summer camp, kids were crazy, but I just rolled with it. We played tons of games, ate pizza and ice cream, and had our last award ceremony. Kids award me the "nicest counselor" award. I going to miss some of the summer campers only, but I'm excited to start the school year. I didn't get a a lot of requirements done this week, but that okay. This is was the first week of school and I have a pretty good idea of how to build my schedule. I love building and managing my time. Finishing my night call my dad, who off in another state, to talk about careers, school, and just tell him I miss him. I don't think he'll be back til October. He travels alot more now for his job, which is amazing and so cool, but I miss him. I remember when he came...
Today was an amazing day. It was the first full week of school. I felt a weight lift of of my shoulders literally and physically. I feel like I have learned most of the things that I had forgotten over the summer. But today will be very fun because I an going to a party at a friends place.
Lots of fitness and poomsaes today. Lots of TKD and tonight will be a family movie night.
DAY OF REST. Had a Very wet day at work today. Water was coming out of the hole body. From head to toe. Got home cooked dinner for Chris and I, then sat down and a Hour later Still have my dinner in my hand.????????????????????☺️
Had to travel to Ohio for work on Wednesday...quick day trip - about 30 hours total...managed to get some requirements in but not a full day's worth. Getting harder to travel for work and stay on top of requirements...starting to feel the stress.
It's Friday...heading into the weekend with goals of tons of requirements. Been traveling for work again this week and starting to feel very behind. Last night Black Belt Class was great, thank you Master Cavasos for double stick review...and thank you Master Connor for being my partner. Also, good kicking line...good job everyone.
Thursday sucked! I mean it was probably the worst day I've personally had in about seven months. basically how it went down was I woke up went to open house for the morning were my wonderful mother decided to pressure me into ALL the clubs. then in the afternoon Mom, Will and I went to Wills open house which went ok but Mom got into a drawn out conversation with another Mom and we ended up getting to tae kwon do five minuets late which wouldn't have been that bad if the pants I packed didn't happen to belong to my nine year old brother. I literally couldn't bring my knee up to my chest, that's how small the pants were so Will and I had to get picked up by mom before we could even take sparring class. But Thats not all because then we went to the grocery store...
As I suspect future days will be, today was quite the full day with school, then cross country practice, then leaving for class half an hour after getting home, and then homework once I got home from class, but today was good. I found it funny that in practice we did a 30min run at an easy pace in 95 degree heat and then as soon as practice is over it starts to rain and cool everything off.
Today was open house. I went to all my classes and met all my teachers, and I like them a lot. Since I’m a senior I have some le-way and also other perks but I’m ready for the school year. I saw a lot of my old teachers and it was nice seeing them.
I've been helping teach more classes. I've been working at King Tiger for so long now and I really want to help out more, plus I need to step out of my comfort zone every once and while. Me and and another instructor go back and forth teaching on class. It been nice, I was really worried, but I've been managing. Today I made the class work on basic blacks and stances, as well as teach them study guide questions. Then at the end of class, we played a study guide game. Worked with Master Natasya on kicks, hopefully when I;m less sore and tired I can work on them more. Then I took sparring, we did some awesome stretches, I felt great.
This may be Thursday for most but it's my Monday at work. Didn't get as many miles as I wanted to, But still got some in. When I got home today started on my requirements The body was a little slow on doing things but got through it.????♂️????️♂️
It's been hard lately. Trying to balance all my stuff with Taekwondo is difficult. I also figured out I was not doing enough for the cycle so now I have to do extra. But that part is my fault. I got a lot of work to do so I better get going.
When in doubt....lift heavy!!!Yesterday was a super crazy, stressful day. Today was my day to figure things out before I had to go to work, mom so hard, and go to taekwondo tonight. I am super thankful today, because I have so many amazing people in my life. If I didn’t have my husband, Dave ,who is the greatest partner, and always there to help me I don’t know what I would do. I also have such amazing friends, Chelley and Jennifer, who help me and love my kiddos when I can’t physically be there for them. I decided to carve out some time for myself and I got a workout in before going to work. What a great decision that was! When in doubt lift heavy ????????????????
Today was my first day of school, and it went pretty well actually, though I’m still getting used to so many things being moved around. It was also the first official day of the cross country season; we have a small team, but I like how that brings us together as a team. Also, because I have the most experience, and the Athletic Director is trying to fill a coaching position while trying to find a cross country coach with more distance running experience, he asked me to help coach the team for lack of better words due to this being my 7th season.
Yesterday, I uploaded a YouTube video onto my account, Adventures of Yoshi, using plush Nintendo characters that I collect. Today was a very tiring day, as I spent all day playing golf in hot and humid weather. I was kind of glad when the clouds came to block out the sun. Today was the 3rd day of my white belt challenge, and class seemed shorter than usual today. I haven't been able to post anything because the internet was out at my house, so I was glad the internet was on when I uploaded my video yesterday. Right now I am using my dad's portable Wi-fi hotspot, so I don't have to worry about the internet going down.
Today has been an average day. However, I am very disappointed and disgusted by the people I am surrounded by at school. They say bad words and are incredibly disrespectful. Whenever a teacher leaves the room, the students talk negatively about said teacher. One day I hope to take this into my own hands. Alright, I’m done with the rant. I got a leadership 1 today. Red Stripe means tons of exercise. Great Job to everyone in the 6:45 PM class. One thing I’m happy about is my textbook. My history textbook is online, so I don’t have to bring a heavy textbook home. Also, there is a vocabulary and summary section. Last year, I disliked my social studies teacher because he made us take lots of notes and we never really learned anything. My history teacher this year is pretty nice. Anddd that’s all for today!
Today was a good day. It was my 5 day of school and we got to use our new cromebooks a lot. Instead of having a physical planner we have online planners. My dad had to go out to my school for parent teacher meetings and I couldn
Yesterday was a crazy hectic day. Work, carpool, TKD, and sparring class. I was tired and today my body is sore. Today I’m in a work conference all day and taking the night off from heading to KT tonight to dial in and be a mom.
Life is funny. When I was younger, my mother would have to drag me out the house to go running, or promise we would eat after. I remember she was better at running and would have to push me to keep up with her. I would sometimes sprint farther ahead then walk the rest of the way or hid in the bushes and say I finish early. Now I actually go running. I was excited to do the King Tiger 5K a couple months ago. My mother and I went running earlier this year, but she been traveling so much that I haven't seen her much. Hopefully once things settle down we can go running/walking more. Life is funny. There are things that I do now, that my past self would have never thought I could or would do.
Today was a very casual day. Went to work then came and home and worked out then ate dinner. Nothing really special happened today but after eating dinner took a shower and now getting ready for bed.
Today was my last day of summer break, and overall it was pretty good. I got a decent amount of artwork and schoolwork done before going to summer camp and in between that and black belt class. Hopefully the school year goes well.
Great black belt class tonight! We did seven rounds of sparring in class and prior to class I was able to do tons of self-defense. A few Burpee’s at work, a few push-ups in the morning, slowly ticking off requirements.
Rain, rain, On your day off brings requirements, 2hr doing Jump rope and sparring and to ice packs on the knee. Next 2 hours ding sit UPS push UPS and some burpees, then outside doing Lawn work.????????????
Today was a pretty average day. I went to school as usual. Went to BBC. Did some sparring rounds and self-defenses. At my school I've been noticing students saying profanity. Honestly, some kids today are so disrespectful. They need to focus on class, not their gossip.
When downtown for my first ASL class. The instructor is deaf. So today we had an interpreter, but after today, she won’t be there. There will be little to no English speaking in the class, only signing and gestures. The instructor said “I live everyday in the hearing world and manage, so you guys can handle 1hr” So this is going to be an interesting class!
Today I got some work done on my very first oil painting, which I’m having a lot of fun with. In the evening, I had orientation for school, which overall went pretty well, though I just found out my schedule has me going from one side of the campus to the other after pretty much every class, but I’ll get used to it after a week or two. Also, I got to see the art room (the setup for art classes has moved around a lot in the past couple years, but now it’s back in the room it used to be), and I couldn’t imagine the setup being better; there are only 2 of us in the school (it’s a very small school), and the art teacher set it up so that we still have access to the rest of the room while still being in our little painting areas/corners...
This is second attempt at journal for Monday's journal. Where does a saved as draft post go? Got some great news today that my sailor is back on dry ground! He's back and I'm heading out to visit other family. It would be nice if he could come too. I may get a chance for my first rowing lesson with my rowing coach cousin. This will be the second visit this year, of the several times I have been this year, that she and I will be there at the same time. At least I'll have a workout buddy.
Today was good I went to work but before I worked it was really cool! Didn’t do much tho but when I got home I studied for the ACT!
This week is the last week of summer camp. I’m ready to be a senior in high school and I got my schedule today and I’m so excited but the summer was pretty cool because we had a small group of kids compared to the second week of summer camp lol. Today was very chill and collective. When I got home, I worked out and now gonna chill and have a great night.
Yes still HOT. But had a good day. Didn't get my 3th mile in today but that is ok, got some Extra sit UPS and push UPS in today. Will work on jump rope and sparing tomorrow. ????️♂️????️♂️????️♂️????️♂️
I just went back to school on the 15th. Life is hard trying to balance school, homework, Taekwondo, and the cycle. I am running behind on some of my stuff for the cycle. it's going to start getting a lot harder when I start getting loads of homework. I am having my first test in school on Friday and my favorite teacher is my advance math teacher. Have a good week everyone!
Today was a loud day just with three people in summer camp and we are starting class right now. The cycle is going well its a lot of work but I am getting a lot done, I think it is even louder than having a bunch of kids,the thing I'am still having a little bit of trouble with is running. I hope you enjoyed it have a super nice day by.
Today was the last day my aunt is in town; she flies back to Louisiana early tomorrow morning, but I had a good time hanging out with her and the rest of my family. Also, as a really early birthday gift, my parents allowed me to get some oil paint, and I’ve already started a painting with it; so far I’m really enjoying it and I’m very grateful my parents allowed me to try this new medium of art.
Hot hot hot, water water water, It was one of those days again today. I would like to thank the men that put the new air conditioning units in our office last year. Thank you ,thank you.????????????????
today I just got Minecraft which I wanted for a very long time and I also got to play with my friends on Minecraft which are across the us. I also found out how to download a special mod for Minecraft which I also wanted for a very long time. also I practiced a lot of requirements and I did my poomsaes like master loyd asked
So the good news is I finished and did not get hurt. I also did really well on the physical portion and I think my kicks are pretty good. My self-defense is okay, but I totally bombed the pomsae section and got in my head. I also didn’t do well on the written test which is another known weakness for me. Overall what surfaced during testing were my weaknesses. I disappointed myself and felt like I embarrassed my Do jang and Sae Bum Nim. I need to work on poomsaes, Korean, and self-defense. This black belt journey for me is more about personal growth and less about TKD. Besides my ego being bruised, I’m taking this as a learning experience and the reason why I’m on my cycle. Here I grow again.
The pretest always humbles me. We've been doing the new self defenses long enough now that I should remember them and not be confused. I got a score of 3 on high yellow belt self defense. That's a failing grade. I'm glad I have this audit cycle AND my next cycle to practice. I need as much time and practice as I can get.
Today was the pretest, and overall I think it went pretty well, though I felt the best about the run than the rest of the physical test. This afternoon though, I was sitting on the floor painting when my dog, who weighs between 45 and 50 pounds, sprints by, tries to jump over me/my work, and runs straight into my head, so now I have a nice little knot/bruise right above my left temple. I used a bag of frozen corn to minimize swelling.
Welp today was an amazing day once I got back to work I fell asleep I just woke up like 20 minutes ago ! I’m about to be up all night I might just work out no cap. I had a great day at work too so far it’s all good!
I had a very good day today. Today was the pre test which kicked my butt, but I think I did pretty good being a first timer. Then after that took black belt class and that was exhilarating and fun and definitely SWEATY. After that I had a great mentor session with instructor Catherine. Then came home and went to a friends house and that was a adventure and a half. Last part of the day, I came back home from my friends then worked out for 2 hours for with a good friend of mine and now I’m sore so tomorrow is my chill day.
I am super happy with the pretest today. I remember during my first testing as a bo cho, I could only do 12 pushups at the pretest and 25 at the physical test. And when I did the mile, I ran it in 12 mins. But now I did 31 pushups this time and ran a mile and a half in 13 mins. I never though I would get this far physically. I'm so pumped!!
Another hot day at work but had it lot easier today. Was able to get my requirements in And added a few more set ups and some pushups.
August 17, 2019, the day of the pre-test for the fall cycle. I have been doing most of my self-defenses two or three times each day for at least the past two weeks and I feel more confident about the newer ones, except of course when I get completely mixed up, or when my focus is less than it should be. Now I need to work on them more intentionally. Time to work on catching up on some things I've been slacking on.
Wow! Here it is, already two weeks into the cycle. I need to find a mentee still. Work was a long day today. After work my friend was very encouraging when we were doing some miles. And yes, it was hot. Finished with that and then went back for some more work. My lower back is bothering me some today. I need to take self standing moray work. Just not enough hours in the day. I have some catching up to do this weekend.
So tomorrow is the pretext for the cycle and my wrist is hurting again (the same wrist that I problems with before, that I had to get physical therapy for). It’s kind of worrying me because I might have to wear my brace in the morning and I won’t be able to do my push ups, burpees, and half pull ups. The more I push through it, it hurts more so I don’t want to do anything to it tonight but I’m going to keep putting ice on it and hopefully will see what it feels like in the morning.
Today I had to do my requirements in the afternoon as my morning was completely booked. I had a doctors appointment at 8:00am to get my physical and to get my shoulders looked at; the doctor still doesn’t want me doing pushups for while, and Im starting to feel bad about it while also understanding that it’s to prevent further injury so I’ll make do. After that I had to go to the post office with my dad to apply for a passport and then ran some various other errands.
Had all intentions of coming home today AND doing my requirements. But ended up staying at work for an extra 3 hours to finish a job. By the time I got home the body said NO , NO , NO. The heat and the job got to ti. Big REST DAY.????
This has been a very long week. My patients have been really sick- lots of abnormal heart rhythms and issues with their implanted devices. My father is supposed to go home from the hospital Tuesday. He will have been in the hospital for exactly 2 months. He’s definitely a tough old ex-Marine. Just finished some requirements and now heading to bed. Big day tomorrow - pretest!!
I've been working with Master Natasya on color belt poomsaes fo the last couple of days. She has helped me alot with technique and how kukkiwon does poomsaes vs how we do poomsaes. It has been really good mentor session, but so many little changes. I worry about more changing my forms later. I cannot change too much right before the Pre-test. Super pump for tomorrow!!! Let's go you guys!!
I’ve been going to school for the past couple days. The campus is not the best, but I’ve learned to cope with that. Also the pre-test is tomorrow. I’m kind of stressed but excited. I really hope I do good. I wrote down some important information from the study guides. We’ll see how it goes.
I only have 1 essay done and I do not have the written test memorized yet and I also forgot most of the poomsaes =<
Today was overall pretty quiet. I worked on my summer reading and some artwork after requirements, and then went to King Tiger for summer camp and helping with testing, which went pretty well. I also spent a bit of time with my aunt, which was nice.
Had a productive day at work today, but still so much to do. Got home a little earlier than usual, so got something to eat and worked on pushups and kicks until it was time to pick up Master Randle so we could meet up with Master Tucker and be supportive to our friend. There really are no words. When I got home, after making arrangements to meet up with a friend after work tomorrow for some miles, I worked on some poomsaes and self defense. Thankfully they weren't muddled as they were the other day. I really need to study study guides.
Today was another day of testing. All of the students did amazing and the parents thought that as well. So proud of all the new Bo cho dans, they worked hard to get it.
One of my co-workers left for college. Really sad, and I'm going to miss him, but I'm happy for him. I started classes today and I am super excited to start the school year.
