I had a very slow run this morning, I'm not happy about it, it does not make me feel confident going into next week. On a positive note, I'm studying the written and doing okay on my wife testing me. I've done well on my curriculum practice, but only okay on most of my physical stuff. Looking forward to a fun weekend with the family (and some TKD).
This week was very eventful, as the weeks at the start of the school year often are. I am getting more comfortable with my regular schedule, and Tuesday in particular had a lot, despite me not having any classes. My homework is not as much as it was last semester. I have a few more things to do tonight, although it shouldn't be too bad. Taekwondo training with the UMN club is going well. I sent some of my poomsae videos from Hanmadang to the club president, who was interested in seeing them. I am trying to fix my form from those videos. I feel like I don't float enough, so to speak.
Today was a pretty normal day at school. My dad is going on a trip with his friends to when I came home he was packing. I had some food and chilled for a little while and said bye to my dad. After I started my requirements. Usually Thursday is the easiest because I have no other classes but I missed class on Monday and I need leadership credits so I went for a class today. I had a fun time helping today and after I came back I went on my run and I tried a new route and it was odd. I came back and ate and then I joined a meeting for an organization I’m in. I had a shower and now I need to study for my science test tomorrow.
Hello today I woke up and went to school and then I did A helpmate seshon well thats all byyyyyu.
September 18 - Entry # 36 School was good. We got interim reports today. I've got all A's in all of my classes so far, so that's good. After school we came home and hung out with the family for a while. Worked on requirements, played a video game , ate dinner, then showered and got ready for bed. It was odd not having sparring today, because I've always went on Thursdays.. but I like the idea of having 2 off days back to back.
Hunter S. Thompson once said that the intention of the King Tiger Black Belt cycle is that, at the end, you should "skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!" If he is correct, then I am right on schedule to arrive just as he stated.
i went to school came back and rapped up an essay, pretty sure i have one left. went to tkd after that and got my last leadership credit, ive got 20 on both leadership credits now. so far not so bad.

I don’t know what’s going on with me. Last week I had acid reflux and this week I have a sore throat stuffy nose and a fever. Not fun especially with the black belt cycle. It’s so annoying how it happens just when the cycle is ending. I skipped my first 2 blocks of school today because my mom wanted to test me for covid, I don’t have it luckily. I went to my last 2 blocks of school and when I came back I had some food and rested a little before starting my requirements. I did some in the morning so I wouldn’t have to work as hard. I went on a normal run and it was pretty okay. I went to my class today too though I skipped it yesterday because I was feeling a lot worse yesterday. Class was fine today and I got caught up on...
Today i went to school which was boring as always. Then i went to help at taekwondo and then i went to trail life and to run. Then i came home and ate dinner. Goodnight.
Today my dad had a buisness trip. I've learned a new thing about pasta. If you boil milk you can make it curdle & then if you add a cornstarch slurry with more milk you can actually make a pseudo cheese sauce due to the fact that curdled milk is just cheese. This is great for cleariac puree.

Today at school in math we just learned about compound interest or something. In English we did presentations about the way our music taste has changed over time. This was probably the first presentation I actually felt good about presenting. I still felt a bit nervous when I went up there, but it was pretty easy because I knew what to say and it was pretty informal. I also was really excited to share the music i listen to, and seeing other people having their "embarrasing" phases on there made me less nervous. In history we just took notes. After school i just got home and did requirements. I have violin class soon
I had a math test today and a US states test. I did good on the states test and dont know what I got on the math test. Have a good day.

Today I hope me and my dad can get some running in. Sadly I will not be helping out in the lower belt class today.
Today was the start of the week , after a long weekend it was pretty hard to get up for work. I pushed through it and was looking forward to seeking my chargers play on Monday night football tonight. This evening I went to the Harrisburg school for their weekday black belt class, it was very fun. Master Knight mixed things up and we did some review, I enjoyed the pace of the class. It was good training with others, I plan on going back on Friday from black belt class and sparring. I am really trying to finish up theist few requirements I have left.
Not much happened today, some funny things happened at school today but tomorrow we have diagnostic testing which I'm not looking forward to, but hey, at least I'll get to play badminton afterwards.

I have a cracked bone in my foot from sparring last Thursday. We were doing paddle kicks in class tonight and I did fine with front and side kicks although I wasn't kicking hard with my injured foot. I did "air" kicks when it came to roundhouses. On one round, my toe barely hit the pad and a pain shot up through my foot. I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to do for sparring this week. I'm still three classes short. blah

September 15 - Entry # 33 Had to take a test for the county today at school. I made a really good grade on it. After school, I rode my bike for a while.

Now im home and getting ready for bed.

My only test free day this week. I have a math test and a US states test towmorrow. Had a good time at black belt class today. Bye
I had a pretty good day today as far as practicing goes. I woke up early, took my flashcards out to the driveway, and ran through everything. I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but I'm still not there yet with hapkido 4/5, or 3rd Dan Self Defense. I'm stronger on the staff forms and Stick 1-4. I feel good about Anyo Isa and the Bolo form, but I still glitch out on them from time to time. My plan is to get up tomorrow and do 4 miles before work, then do some more requirements during my lunch break.
Today I got up and did some requirements, then worked for awhile. Now I'm heading to downtown Nashville to get some dinner, then see a concert.
The Demon Slayer movie went well! It was subbed, unfortunately (I wanted to watch the dubbed version), and I didn't know where the rest of the people who were supposed to go with me went, but I went anyway because there was no way I got one of the club members at Taekwondo to drive me all the way back just to not watch the movie, which would only be out this weekend. I came prepared, wearing my fancy Giyu crocs to it and everything. And it did not disappoint. No spoilers for those of y'all who are into Demon Slayer, by the way. Anyway, over the weekend, I worked on a lot of the drills from the club, but with extra reps on my non-leading leg, which in my opinion needs a lot of work. I also did a mentee session with the Beckemeyers. Other than that, life has been...
This weekend has been amazing , I was able to spend a lot of family time. On Saturday went to my son's first college home game and saw him and his band preform. It was truly amazing to hear how great they sounded and how committed he truly is to the band. Later that night I was able to catch the greatest display of body , I have ever seen and probably the best fight in the last ten years. Last today I was engulfed in football and my mom came over to visit. I really could not ask for a better weekend and I am looking forward to more.
Today not much happened but I do have school tomorrow which(I can’t believe I’m saying this) I’m kinda looking forward to since I haven’t seen my friends since Friday.
Worked on alot of stick and staff work today, and I finally had enough time to do almost double requirements in a day. I studied and did some other written work before bed.
Today was my sisters birthday party thing and we had food but I had an allergic reaction and I had to take medicine so I fell asleep and then she left to go back home to Colorado. After that I went to confirmation class and youth group which was fun. Then I went to run. Goodnight.
Today I had an SAT class in the morning. After that I did requirements and worked on my essay for school for a bit. Then i ate lunch and went to the first orchestra rehersal of the season. its nice to be back. There are a lot of new people but a lot of our winds and brass section left which was sad. Anyways we just ran through all the new pieces and most of them weren't too hard. Anyways after that I came home and played volleyball and then I came home and showered and ate dinner and did more homework. its late now so im going to sleep.
Today I hung out with friends but after that I did my requirements and worked on a essay.

Today was my rest day. I woke up pretty late and made some food for myself. I was with my dog for some time and then I did some homework. My dad went to Raleigh yesterday to help my sister with something in college. He came back today. I had lunch with him and then was watching TV for some time. My grandma came to visit for the past week while my aunt and uncle were on vacation and needed someone to take care of her. It was also a good time for her to visit too. They came back today so they stopped by and I said hello and then they left. Me and my parents were watching this funny crime movie then I had dinner and showered. Pretty chill day.
Today I went to see my friend at the park after her shift. We went on a nature trail and walked a lot. After visiting her I went to go learn how to change a tire. It was hot outside but still fun.
Today was actually kind of semi-exhausting 😳😳😳 I know, I know it's weird several days in a row not actually being completely exhausted by the end of the day but anyway it's Sunday so I played Minecraft for a while and then an hour or two later I watched the football game and initially the Panthers were completely destroyed but they actually managed to make a comeback and I think it was like a five-point game which is pretty close actually 🏈🏈🏈🏈 and we had pork tenderloin for dinner which was nice and I'm about to catch up on my co-op homework I think it's about it bye
