Journal 7

I love the Kingtiger sweatshirt. I went to school with my sweatshirt and it was so comfortable, I’m so glad I wore it. Anyways, it was a normal day once again at school. I didn’t have any homework to do when I came home so I did a lot of my requirements before I went to church class. When I came back from church class I had to study for the two tests that I have tomorrow which I am gonna go back to, when I am done writing this journal. Other than that I had a great day! Hope you had a nice day!

Journal 6

Finally, it wasn't a cold day. At school this morning I saw 2 people I know with a King Tiger sweatshirt on that they got on Monday so I assumed that I would get mine today so I was pretty stoked to go to Tae Kwon Do to get my sweatshirt. I had no test or quizzes today. We didn't do much today at school, it was a pretty normal day. When I came back I had no homework because I finished my weeks homework yesterday. But, I did still have to study for my upcoming test and quizzes I have. That didn't take too long though. I then finished my requirements for the day before I went to Tae Kwon Do. I went to family and black belt class and then I had a mentor session with my mentor and learned Bo Cho specials 1. I was pretty tired when...

Journal 5

I felt like the weekend went by so fast anyways, today was a tiring and stressful day. I had to wake up at 6 in the morning which was very hard for me since I slept in on Saturday and Sunday. I felt like it was a smart idea to get some of my requirements done in the morning  but I was to tired and didn’t budge so I decided I would do it when I came back from school. Today I had one test and a quiz which I was very stressed about and to know that I have 1 more test and 2 more quizzes I was just about done with school. Though, I ended up getting a good grade on my test&quiz that I had today. When I came back from school I had a bunch of homework for the week so I decided it would be smart...

Journal 4

I had to wake up at 10 this morning to go to church but since I slept at like 11 yesterday I was so tired so slept in a extra 30 minutes. I then went to church and came back at 1. When I came back I had a lot of free time so I decided to get some of my requirements done for the day. After I did some of my requirements, I studied for a test that I have tomorrow-unfortunately. Then we went down to a restaurant with my cousins to celebrate my parents anniversary. When we came back I had to write my journal-which I am doing write now, but then after this I have to go to sleep since I have school tomorrow.

Journal 3

I’m so glad it’s Saturday! In the morning I went to Sparring class and then after that I went to my Bo Cho Dan black belt class and we reviewed poomsaes and self defenses. Since my brothers class is after my class I decided to just wait for his class to be done so that I can fit in a mentee session and do some of my requirements at Tae Kwon Do. When I got home I was pretty sore from going to Tae Kwon do, so I rested for a little bit. I then went to my cousins house and hung out there with my family&friends. I came back at around 11:00pm, so I am pretty exhausted and just want to jump in my cozy warm bed.

Journal 2

It was 17 degrees outside! Like what?!?! We still had to go to school though. But it wasn't that bad, today we didn't do anything it was like a "relaxed" day at school. I had no homework since it was a Friday. So when I came home I got to fit in a lot of requirements for the day. I then went to my music class and came back at around 8:00. Then our cousins came over and we had dinner together. But then they eventually had to leave, sadly. But at least  the weekend finally came!

Journal 1

It was my second day back from winter break. It was freezing outside, it was like 20 degrees. I expected a two hour delay from school but nope that didn't happen. I didn't have much homework since it was a 3 day week and we didn't learn much so I got to fit in some of my requirements when I came home. I then went to Tae Kwon Do and took black belt class. One more day and the weekends here!
