It's Thursday, and I've been neglecting my journals. This week has been super busy at work, and Dylan and I are getting used to his new school schedule. Hopefully next week will be smoother. Goint to sparring tonight and then finishing up a few requirements. Looking forward to the weekend.
This morning, I was able to complete a majority of my requirements. Whew!! My emotions during this cycle are like a yo-yo. I have a love-hate relationship with Taekwondo right now. I will keep it moving though. On another note....I do not usually talk about it, but I am a sponsor with PlanUSA. It is a great organization that supports children in need, especially helping them to attend school and improve their living conditions. I did sponsor a girl from Mozambique for 10 years, but she turned 18 earlier this year and aged out. Now, I sponsor 4 children from Benin, Haiti, Cambodia and Sudan. My goal is to correspond with them once a month. I like to send coloring pages and stickers. Afterwards, I will watch a few videos for school and then head out to the dojang. Have a good day/night!!
Im about to go to school and i've been thinking about ways to earn money and I thought about selling gum at school and on the bus. I helped my friend sell snacks in elementary but he shut it down because there werent many sales. but im gonna give it a shot. school has been going good though and i havent had much homework except delta math and a vocabulary sheet for Social studies. My sister is coming home from college tomorrow for labor day weekend. My mom is cat sitting and the cat is shy but cute.
Wednesday- a third good day at the beach, headed back tomorrow. Spent the morning on the beach, and most of the afternoon in the pool and relaxing on our balcony. I ended up doing 2 miles once the sun went down. It was much more pleasant. I’ve also decided sam Chong is boring and that’s why I always try to mix another poomsae with it. See everyone at sparring!
Good morning and goodnight. Going to bed to prepare for work tonight. I got my requirements done, so that a nice relief off my chest when I wake up. Decided to journal before bed too because I will forget to when I wake up. After finishing my requirements, I worked on continuing education material that was available from work. Evening thou I am done with school for the moment I still want to work on building my knowledge and skill up.
Late getting this out. Today was kind of a wash. Had a lot of obligations to take care of this evening that prevented me from jogging or doing any requirements. Its 1:42am and will still be doing my hour of Poomsae later while i'm working though so i guess its not all a loss.
Today was the 3rd day of school and it wasn't even that bad. I like most of my classes except for math because my teacher doesn't seem to like me. Then I got home and went to master Evins black belt class. Then I went home and now I'm going to sleep.
Went to Lake Norman to get some leadership credits, and then I went to North Charlotte to do black belt class. Always has creative ways to challenge kicks. I’m really happy with my tornado. Then a few of my friends wanted to go rollerskating tonight. We just finished that up so now I’m home, and then I’ll probably head to the gym to work on some requirements for Thursday. It’s kind of a tricky thing about Having a night schedule, I’m very limited when I can go running, unless I go do the treadmill (I’m not a big fan of). So sometimes I’ve been running at midnight, but I’ve been told I’m not allowed to do that anymore for my safety. Which is fair.
Today I spent 3.5 hours at the DMV to get my license renewed. 😭😭😭 Then we went to chat tonight and assisted.
It was extremely hot today, the sun really didn't let up. I attempted to nap when I got home from school, but it didn't go too well. So I just went to the dojang to help out with class, take class, and do some mentor/mentee sessions. We did lots of self defense today.
Today was a good day, which is surprising given that we mostly spent the day spinning our wheels at work. Fortunately, the issue was tracked down and resolved, freeing us up to move on to the things we're supposed to be doing. Ironically, it wasn't even anything our team had done - it was a third party issue. On the Cycle side of things, I got almost everything done before I left for the dojang - only kicks left to do and I got those done before coming home. With 18 minutes to cover with both forms and self-defenses, we're just about to the point where I can practice everything I know without going too far over the 'limit'. It does make me glad that I'm "only" testing for 3rd Dan; it seems like there's a lot of new forms to learn between 3rd and 4th. Fortunately, I don't need to...
In black belt class we ended up in groups of three doing self defenses. If you were in the middle you were defending. Your partners were attacking two different self defenses, although not at the same time. It was a good mental exercise and made you really think about what to do next. I wish we had gotten to do weapons tonight, but not every night is a weapon class (unfortunately). I have the next few moves of my creative form down, but I really need to practice outside because I keep hitting the ceiling fan twirling the staff. I'm going to accidentally break a light bulb and it's hard practicing in the dark when you are trying to make up a new form.
So I forgot to set an alarm and my mom woke me at 7:20. It only took me 20 min to get ready so I had a little less than an hour of free time before I had to go to school. Tomorrow I am going to get up earlier so I have more time before I have to catch the bus. After school I took class I could only stay for 1 class today because I had baseball practice. I think I might be one of the better outfielders on the team. 😉. And when I was done I went to circle k to get some some snacks. We are all caught up today. I will see ya tomorrow. ✌️
Today I woke up and I went to school. At school I did a packet in my first block and we worked on it all class. I went to the assembly where they talked about punishments about not following the rules. After that I went to second block were I learned to use excel. I watched some videos to get closer to taking the skill challenge. Then I went to third block. We had a sub and had a packet to do which was easy. In Ela we worked in our text books. Then I went to work where I helped with some classes and got a leadership credit. I am tired and going to bed early tonight.
Today I woke up and did my requirements for taekwondo! Then I went to the beach! Then I went to the pool! Then I did some more of my requirements and did some cleaning. Then I packed up a bit because I am going back home tomorrow. Then i went to the pool and watched a movie now I am done for the day! GOOD NIGHT!!!!
Helped out with the wang-ho class today. In black belt class we worked on some bocho+ self defense and master Evans snuck in some color belt work as well.
Today is the 47th journal. Also I had a test and got that done and got my homework done too which is due Friday. And I have to wake up at 6:30 in the morning to get some requirements done. Waking up earlier seems to help with the evening rush.
Today, I woke up, did my requirements, and went to school. After school, I finished my homework, assisted a junior class, attended a black belt class, and got a mentor session done. After the classes, I went home and got other requirements done. Have a good night.
I woke up and I still got COVID so I did not go to school. I did my exercise then stayed in bed played some games, and watched tv and some YouTube then I played some guitar. Good night everyone 😴💤.
Had a good day today. School went well, I'm really enjoying my kiddos and my team. I need to take pictures of my room. Went to blackbelt class tonight. Volunteered to show a 1st Dan self-defense. I never volunteer in class, but thought I would try. It took a couple tries, but I got it correct. Yay for me. I hope I didn't embarrass my mentor because I messed up.
Today i woke up, ate some eggs, and went to school.During P.E. I played king of the castle and lost miserably. (i was playing with 9th graders leave me alone :c) I went to after school and and took regular class. Then I helped out with the senior tigers class and got a Leadership credit and Class assistance. i black belt class and worked on self defense I got complimented on my spin fall. I came home, showered, and ate dinner. Okay i'm done now.
Today I woke up this morning and went to school. At school we learned about the digestive system which was pretty cool and in math we learned about change overtime data which was fun. Then I had a baseball practice with my team. Last I went home and I did my exercises and my running 🏃♂️ after that I went to bed. Overall today was a great day.
Good night everyone. I just got back from midweek at my church, we learn about our reason for being alive, I saw a fellow belt belt candidate, Abraham. I had a "quiz e poo as my teacher Mr. Timmerson calls it in history. Hope everyone had a good day. Night
Today I woke up and went to school after school we came home and dad said we could have a one day break from taekwondo so he made hotdogs and hamburgers after we ate we put it on the TV show then we got ice cream then we went on our mile run we did some Burpee’s and planks Then we did everything else and that’s all for my day peace ✌️
Today I woke up and got ready for school. After school I didn’t show up to taekwondo today I don’t know why but my dad said we can we’re gonna stay home. After I got home from school I came for dinner we ate and then we did our mile run and we got home we did our planks At school I did some of my requirements. That was my day today see you next journal.
Today I went to school then went home after that I went to soccer and I had chikfila.
Today, I woke up bright and early and took a shower. I then had breakfast and headed to school. At school, I had a basketball lesson in gym, did some notes on irregular verbs in Spanish, did a paper in Bio, had some lunch and played a little handball, went to civics and took a ton of notes, headed to English where we continued reading Lord of the Flies, and then to math where we played games reviewing for tomorrow and I got a doughnut :). After school, I didn't have work today so I spent the afternoon cleaning. I then had dinner and now I am here. Tonight, I will do chores, homework, and more stuff for the cycle. Goodnight everyone.
Hello everyone, today I got up and went to school and I think that I am doing pretty good in Social Studies because I have been getting everything memorized. Then after school I went and did my exercises then only I went to TKD and got a mentee session, then I went home. I hope everyone had a good day, bye.
So today I got up and had some breakfast and then I did some school work and then we did morning time and then I finished my school work and worked on the grit workbook and then I worked on one of my essays and then my mom went to the DMV to get our car license plate registered at least I think that's what it was something like that but anyway we finished watching onward and we watched Luca and then my mom went to the store and got broccoli for the teriyaki chicken tonight and now I'm here journaling
I think I got close to the peak then fell back down a few flights. If resting is prohibited that is, because I totally took today off and hope to recover soon. I must have caught a flu, or food poisoning. It’s been a series of stomach pains, combined with holistic body soreness.
Practiced at the park today with the team. Staff forms, in depth bocho and bocho special self defenses, and the second special. It was a day filled with soreness of some sort. I keep bumping into things and cutting pieces of myself away! Wonder if thats a sign of overflowing chi! Need to find that Ying yang!
I went to Dollar Tree this morning with my Mom. It is difficult for me to buy items at a regular store when I know I can get them cheaper here….just cannot do it. I found some Absorbine Jr. back patches that have menthol. You think I bought one? Heck, yeah!!!! I bought six! I am trying one now and it feels great. The Tylenol and ibuprofen was not taking care of my low back pain alone. I have been doing more back stretching to try and alleviate the back pain, but I think I was making it worse…so hold off on the stretching for now in that area. I feel much better since yesterday. Definitely not trying to miss another day since I have too much to add to tracking today….black belt class, class assistance, mentor session, mentee session and possibly warmup. Until next time….peace out!
Tuesday- Great day today, ran 2 miles this morning. The humidity here really makes that hard. Then we spent all on the beach. I’m a little more crispy than I would like, keeping up with everything is hard!
Pretty good day was able to help with the kids class in the afternoon and get that credit for class assistance. Had a good class and mentor session with Mr. Woods and we worked on Hapkido 1. Wasn't able to run as it got late and had other obligations. Plan on upping my jog to 5 miles per to help catch up esp on Saturday and Sunday.
Hi King Tiger Family. It was a pretty good day. Got a good run in. I will be running a 10K In a few weeks. My first one. I have done a bunch of 5K, so we shall see. Running with my daughter (Lexi), so I am not alone. She will push me! I am excited. Got some requirements done and now writing this. Have a great night. Take care
My first full day of what the rest of the cycle is going to look like. School, TKD, Requirements, and sleep. Even though its stressful I think the more I get used to this schedule the easier it will become.
Today I woke up and my friend drove me and one of my other friends to school. We got there at about 7 and started the day in first block it was boring. After 90 min I went to study hall. I had nothing to do so I just talked to my friend. Then I went to 2nd block. I have the same teacher for 2nd block all year. That room is really really cold. I went fro 3rd block for 20 mins and then went to lunch. At lunch I saw more friends as well as the people I rode to school with. We finished up 3rd block after lunch. Then I went to 4th block which is ELA. We didn’t do much. I came home and took a nap. Then I went to baseball practice.
I wish I knew what I did to my knee, but apparently I angered it in class sometimes yesterday. I got up in the middle of the night and realized that a) my knee felt stiff and wouldn't bend and b) I couldn't put weight on it. I had to do some weird one legged limp shuffle to the bathroom, rub some voltaran gel on it, fall back into bed, and pray that the morning found it more cooperative. It was a bit better in the morning but still stiff. Between Voltaran and ibuprofen I was able to get three miles in walking, but not at top speed. I also saw a very friendly black cat along the way who insisted I stop and pet it. I made it to guitar (yea!) but was late because I had to swing by and give Samuel ibuprofen because he fell and sprained his...
Got up this morning and picked up where I left off yesterday with work. Things were pretty busy and I didn't get my physical requirements finished until almost 5pm. I misplaced my book in the kitchen so I didn't get a chance to get to the dojang to help with class; instead I got there in time to get ready for the adult color belt class. We spent a lot of time on Hwarang, Yi Jang, Sa Jang, Yuk Jang, and Pal Jang. It was a good refresher and a reminder that I should practice all the color belt forms regularly. As we get deeper into the Cycle, I know I'll probably wind up covering every poomsae I know at least once a day but even now, it wouldn't hurt to revisit all these forms more regularly than I have been. After class we had PMAA and worked on Knife C. ...
Hey all, today as I got to color belt class, I did class assistance and had a mentorship for staff forms 1&2 with master marcus which is important to understand for staff form 3. When I came back home I practiced those some more with my sticks, did requirements, some homework, reading and just relaxed for midnight.
Today is going to be short but sweet. I have to go bed soon. Today I went to school. My new normal. Then after I got ready and went to scouts. We got pizza after scouts. I got home did some requirements and now it is bed time.
Another week of classes and I've finally caught up. Need to keep this pace and maybe stretch ahead of material if possible.
Today was another long day. Woke up for school, which was good. I then came home and did my online classes. I followed that by doing a few requirements before going to my run club. I had an easy day today and was just preparing my legs for Thursday's workout. I then came home, ate, did a few more requirements, and now I am here.
Today, I had to wake up earlier than usual to go to robotics. I normally get my requirements done in the morning, but I woke up to late today. After school, I did homework, did my requirements, and ran for 2 miles. Have a good night.
Today I woke up to go to school which was a good day we learned a lot. One of my favorite classes is humanities and Biology, we always do some fun stuff in those classes even though I do get a lot of home work which usually takes a while to finish. After that I went home to do home work then I went to class and helped out and did some requirements and now I'm just chilling with my family.
As I have mentioned before, I am still getting use to getting out later for middle school. I have felt rushed and there was so little time. This morning I woke up at 6:20 with the goal of getting most of my requirements done. My body was not used to exercising so early. It was tiffed than I thought. But this evening I had more time for homework and time to relax before trail life. I may try getting up earlier the rest of the week to see if it makes a difference.
School was a little bit overwhelming today but I got through it. I am getting tired of doing everything, however, I can't do anything about it since I've already started. Ended the day by catching up on tracking and some homework.
Today I woke up and did my Requirements for taekwondo. Then went On a run then went to the beach! Then to The pool then Came back to! Then I. Went to a dinner which was like a pirate show and a dinner while you’re watching it was really good! I had a lot of fun I’m done for the day. GOOD NIGHT!!
Today I have COVID and it SUCKS!! 😩I basically just stayed home and did my exercise then stayed in bed and watched TV and YouTube almost all day. Good night 😴💤
Today I woke up and then I packed up and went to school after school I went to taekwondo I helped out with the class I took a class and got a leadership credit for doing punches and kicks then I came home ate my mama’s yummy pastellios then we started watching a movie called into the woods on Disney+ then I got to make ice cream now I’m doing my journal Peace ✌️.
I was simply exhausted today. I wanted to go to the dojang today, but my body said NO 😵…and I have to listen. I will be able to start fresh tomorrow 😅. Nighty-night!!
Today was my first history test. I studied so much last night. I cooked it - I knew every single answer by heart. I know I will get a good grade. Tonight at taekwondo I worked with Asa on Poomsae's and Instructor Courtney on staff form 2. When I got home I had rice, salmon, avocado and spinach. For my monthly challenge I'm eating a vegetable each day. Have a great day. I hope you do good on your history test, too!

Today was my second day of school. After school I went to TKD. then came home and did some requirements.
Today, I accidentally slept in so I had to hurry to get ready. At school, I started a movie with questions in health, did a quiz in Spanish, did some notes and a small assignment in biology, had lunch, did a small paper in civics, worked on some assignments in ELA, and then had a mini quiz in Math. I went to work after school and got a class assistance credit, leadership credit, and a mentee session. I also had some refreshers on bolo and staff form two, and learned staff form three. I went home for a night of dinner, chores, and homework. Goodnight everyone.
Today i woke up and went to school. I played dodge ball during P.E. I went to after school and got my requirements done after class. I got a session in with my mentee and then went home. I went to the gym today to triple my requirements, my arms feel like noodles. Getting better at the boxers skip, jump roping is very fun. Okay i'm done now.
My mentee meet up / session was a success! I have a new mentee due to losing my other due to camp ending. We worked on her form, reviewed self-defense number 1-3, and learned number 4. More exciting news, she will also be coming to sparring on Fridays!! Junior belts are fun to work with. They want to soak up all the knowledge and enjoy practicing their form more than twice.
Hello everyone, today I went to school, went to the gym, and then went to TKD then went home, goodbye.
I hope everyone had a terrific Tuesday and his desire for a wonderful Wednesday!!! Today I got up and got ready to go to school knowing that I had my musical auditions evening. When I got to auditions, I was very very nervous but me and my friends were her enough times so when it came to my audition time slot, I was ready to go. After the singing portion of auditions, we all got assigned a few lines to say with a few other people. Then my mom came and picked me up and we drove home. When I got home and then went around in the backyard with Fred!!! I hope it was a terrific Tuesday for all good night!!! P.S. Today is National Peach day!!! ~Magnolia~
Today I woke up and I and got ready for school. School was good because we were talking about how the digestive system works and that was really cool. Then after school I went to Belmont for my high belt class. We worked on rolls and falls and bocho special self defense. Then after that I worked on my exercises when I got home. Overall today was a good day.
Hey guys, today I went to early morning seminary again and it was actually pretty fun for it being so early. After, I went to school and had band first like always and in band we played a song called Rhapsody in Blue and it's a five minute song and it sounds really cool on a recording but not in the band. Anyway, I didn't go to TKD today because of my legs, they've been in constant pain all week and I haven't gone the Chiropractor because we haven't scheduled an appointment. Anyway, I did more drivers ed and Legos, and we're having tacos with carnitas for dinner so I'm excited for that, See you guys tomorrow!
Good afternoon, I just got all my weekday black belt done so no more BBC classes. I got a mentor session done with Master Knight. Had the iReady test today. Hope you have a good night.
Ending the the morning with washed hair, sort of clean apartment, and a bit closer finishing my creative form. My goal for today is to work on my essays, and get down belt specials. I also need to go get more leadership one credits. This evening hopefully I’ll be able to go rollerskating downtown. Tonight the group I go with is gonna be going on a really long skate around NODA and uptown. Distance skating has definitely gotten easier with the running, but there are times where I feel my glutes, especially going uphill.
I am still hanging in there and doing my thing. Breathe in….breathe out 😌😌.
This morning I got up and took our eldest to an appointment and just barely missed getting back in time for a meeting. I had already let the team know I wasn't going to be able to make it so it was OK. And then every time I thought I was done with a task, something else showed up. I did get a lot done and we're getting our checklists for quarterly releases into much better shape. Our new QA has turned out to be quite a good find. I also got my allergy shots and they realized that they're out of my serum so no more shots until they get more in. No idea how long that'll take but, ironically, this is when I'm just a couple of increases away from maintenance dosage so this should be interesting, especially if they have to drop me down to repeat a shot. Tonight...
And what even is a normal day? Pretty sure normal is just a setting on the dryer. Anyhow, my oldest started the day going to the podiatrist and ended up with shoes inserts. We keep trying to get him into the dojang as he shows n aptitude for martial arts, but he's still a bit nervous to come. The exterminator came after we got home, and we ended up talking about different dog breeds as he sprayed the interior of the house. He went out to his truck and I hear him call our "hey, did you kill this snake?" Short answer is no as I don't kill snakes (copperheads aren't friendly snakes so they don't count) because snakes are beneficial,but I apparently had a dead black snake with white rings on it in the driveway. He asked if he could keep it-sure, what am I going to do with it...
Monday morning always sucks, I never wanna wake up and the fact that my alarm was set too early didn’t make it any better. I thought it would be less hot today but I was very wrong. I stopped by the dojang to help out with class in the evening and finished up whatever I had left for the day.
Got home and took a huge nap before practicing double stick forms. Currently reading 50 pages worth of material for a discussion later on this week.
Was able to do three more miles tonight. Had my last required weekday black belt class tonight now that i can cut back a little on taking every black belt class i can work on requirements and weapons forms on those days.
Today was a late night. I first woke up and had to listen to my sister saying that she doesn’t want to go to school, but she went anyways. So when I got to school everybody was confused about if it was “A” day or “B” day, but it was a b day. After school I got home went to taekwondo and then went to do my run. Then I got home did some homework till 10:20. It was a group effort in helping me with my homework.
WAs able to go to 2nd dan and up black belt class. I really like being able to focus on higher belt curriculum in class setting. Often in black belt class we focus on bocho, first dan, or color belt curriculum. I also review the curriculum sheet for the cycle. There are only a few things left I need to review and get down. Plus I need to work on my creative form. Today, I made potatoes pancakes, because I've been seeing them online, so yummy.
Today was my first hockey try-outs for this season. When we got there we did line drills and puck handling. Then we did a scrimmage. I had two shots om goal - one missed and the other the goalie caught. When I got home I took a shower and now I'm ready for bed. See you tomorrow.
Today, I woke up, did my requirements, and went to school. After school, I wore my white belt and assisted a junior tiger class and attended a weekday black belt class. Have a good night.
Today, I woke up and went to school. I played kickball in P.E., did an assignment in Spanish, I took notes and aced a quiz in bio, had lunch and played football, took a lot of notes in civics, worked on assignments in English, and took more notes in math. I went to work and got a class assistance credit, leadership credit, mentee session, and a mentor session, we worked on 1st Dan self defense and stick forms. I then took a 2nds and higher only class for a weekday black belt class where I learned hapkido 4 and the rest of my specials. I went home for dinner and chores. Goodnight everyone.
Hi King Tiger Family, great classes tonight. Got a chance to help instruct. I got a chance to work with two yellow belts were just fantastic to work with. They both were eager to learn and just get better. They listened very well and picked on some minor tweaks quickly. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them. Got a mentee session in and got some requirements done. Still a little behind but will catch up.Good day. Take care
Today I woke 2 hours before school. I got ready and then went to the bus stop. Once I was at the stop the bus came. I went to Bailey my new middle school. I went to Homeroom and had class and then I went to ELA teacher. After that I went to see my crazy science teacher. She is funny and cray cray. I went to lunch and PA. I walked the track during PA. I had the rest of my classes and then was done for the day. I took the bus home. I got a sandwich and then went up to king tiger. Going to do my requirements and then go to bed.
Today I went to school and then chilled at home before going to taekwondo. My friend thinks he left his key at my house so we tried looking for it but no luck :( Then we went to run 2 miles. Then I talked to my parents about trying airsoft and building a pc. They said it's fine if I pay for the stuff so I asked if I could try petsitting for some money so i'll try to get someone to let me do it. But I could also do a console setup with a ps5 or xbox to save money. Its gonna be fun if I do it. but thats all for today. Goodbye.
Today was my first day of school and it was rough. This being my junior year, I have my hardest classes this year. After school I had a grueling practice. We were on the track and doing longer intervals. I then came home, ate, and got ready for class. I then headed to the Dojang and helped with a class, which was followed by the 2nd Dan and up class. Afterwards I came home, did some requirements, ate, and now I am here.

Today I started seminary which is a morning gospel study for my youth group in my church, so I woke up at 5:00 in the morning to do that that then hitched a ride with one of the kids there that goes to my school too. After school, I went to the gym and did requirements and I did 17 reps or a 50 pound easy bar and did 15 reps with 100 pounds on the lat pull down then did 110 on the lat pull down 5 times. After, I came home and did some drivers ed stuff, I have to read through 103 pages of that stuff to even go and get my learners permit and they call it a "scavenger hunt". After, I went to TKD and did a class and got a menti session and when I got home, I ate dinner and figured out my grandpa...

Last I went to the black belt class I we worked on how to get up if you are on the ground. IOverall today was a good day.
Today i woke up a little late due to me sleeping through my alarm, but i made it to school on time. I think i'm the favorite of all the teachers. We did a shuttle run during P.E. and i got 7.10 seconds. I went to after school and did some requirements and had class. I went to PMAA class today and then went home and ate.

Then at school I had to take a diagnostic and it took a long time for everyone to finish but then afterwards we went home. Then we went to the gym and did all of our things and got it all marked off. then after we went to TKD and I got a Mentee session and a class assistance and had a good time then we went home, I hope everyone had a good day, bye.
Its to bad I can't count all my walking I do at school towards my miles. So much fun coming home to walk almost 2 more miles and complete my requirements. I have a feeling ill be crashed out early tonight. I may need to knock out some of them before school, I just don't want to be sweaty. I wonder if all our essays are due by Sept 28th if you are not testing until Spring?! Burpies and I will never be friends, no matter how hard I work at them. I am concerned that m6 heart rate continues to be high with the exercises. I hope that if I need to take a break during g testing that I will be permitted. (,A Masters status is not worth my health. I know that may sound rude, however, my heart works harder due to having 3 chambers instead of 4....
The dreaded homework, the dreaded iReady, the hated Delta Math, the terrible pacer test, and the horrible requirement biting my back that i have to do at 8 at night. UHHHHHHHHHH. I wish the cycle could be all over the summer so its easier. Oh well, I guess I will be fine in the end. Have a good rest of your day.
Sunday- 1st full day our our beach trip, kids were up early, Got some requirements done, and we were at the beach by 8am… We spent the morning there and after lunch went to the Myrtle waves water park, pretty good. We all went back to the beach after dinner, Abigail and I thought it would be fun to do our poomsaes and self defenses on the beach, but we just ended up kicking sand at eachother and I don’t recommend it!
Today was busy for everything besides the black belt cycle for me. I got out the bed about 7:am and we drove untill 1 to get home. After that I did most of my physical requirements for the day and did some shopping, and when we got back from that, I had to unpack my bags and then pack for school right after. Towards the end of the day I finished my requirements and did my German lessons for the day, as well as finishing packing for school.
Not much today except in an effort to try and catch up on the running i did a late night loop around my neighborhood which just to happens to be 3 miles basically on the dot.
It was the longest of days, it was the shortest of days....up and to the park in the morning to go over forms and self defenses with other black belt friends. When we got home, I decided to make some food including some turkey sausage and steel cut oats. I went to sit down for a second, and heard a strange noise coming from the kitchen. I glanced up and saw our dog Matilda up on her hind legs, front paws firmly planted in my counter, and muzzle down in the sausage plate eating as fast and noisily as she could go. Needless to say, Matilda ended up in time out in her kennel contemplating her relationship with the turkey sausage for a while. Considering she's a dog (and a stubborn one at that with all the herding breeds she's comprised of) I doubt seriously that she cared much beyond a) the human was upset, b) she's in the kennel, and c) there is no more sausage today. Matilda is an incorrigible repeat offender by the way, and would have long since been doing hard time under Bill Clinton's "three strikes and you're out" policy. Turkey sausage, bacon, even the occasional blueberry muffin isn't safe from that four legged furry sneak. Good thing she's cute. She was able to stay away from Mark's birthday cake, which I was able to finally make for him (hooray!), and we called Mark's mom to check on family in California. I got off the phone not long ago, hence the late journal. So much for getting to bed early.
Sunday morning means practice at the park. It's nice to be able to get outside without it being terribly hot and we managed to get a lot of work done with both forms and self-defenses. Afterwards we came home and had lunch but the dog stole the turkey sausage (cooked) off a plate on the counter. She's a dirty sneak thief and doesn't seem to care about house rules. After lunch Gabe and Rachael went to the gym but I stayed home because someone at FedEx tagged the treadmill to arrive today. We didn't really believe it would happen but I stayed home just in case. It's a good thing I did because Joshua had some technical problems with his Minecraft account which I was able to get sorted out. The treadmill, however, is now supposed to arrive tomorrow which makes far more sense. Gabe made a couple of different cakes...
The first part of my day was dedicated taekwondo. I went to Brookdale and did some requirements in the shade. I worked with my mentees. Then I went to go work on poomsaes.
The day was spent shopping for shoes. Just being on the lookout for new ones. I took my cat for a walk. She was Eager to get out the house,
Busy busy day today, got home late and immediately started working on schoolwork until 8:30pm. Luckily there was only two assignments left to finish giving me plenty of time to fulfill the need of the requirements that haunt me.
Today I woke up and did my driving for drivers ed. When I was down we went to Greensboro to see a friend for his birthday. We went to a water park. Then we ate dinner at a Japanese restaurant.
Last night was fun and we played hide and seek in the dark. We played lots of games. I also played my first tournament in one of my video games. Of course I lost, but I still got to play. Then today I went to my grandparents new house for lunch, which was good. then I went to run 2 miles. Now I am finishing requirements. Goodnight
So I woke up for about 2 hours and then fell back asleep. Then we had to go to the water park. I rode some rides. Then after we went and ate Japanese. I am very stuffed and it is late. I have school tomorrow.
I woke up ate breakfast then went to poomsae and we did a lot of kicks then I got on the fantasy football 🏈. I ate lunch then I did my exercise which I think is getting easier played some guitar then ate dinner then went on a run. Good night 😴💤.
Rest day for me. I doubled up on my requirement Saturday so I could spend time with my friend for my birthday. After my friends left Sunday, I did have to do some cleaning. I had to get my lunch packed for school and charge my school Chromebook. Did some studying. Overall, this was my rest day. I used the day to rest my muscles, brain, and my knee. Hoping to start fresh tomorrow.
