Candidate Journals

Good Evening King Tiger Family. Today was a normal day, went to school and received some things I should have gotten yesterday inside of my Thursday folder. They also revealed that we are having an award ceremony soon. I had to make up my math MAP testing and I think I did well. I cut my finger open in art class. It was a small cut and as long as I'm not rough with it and let it heal it will be okay. We were cutting out things for our art project for black history month. After school I went to taekwondo class. We practiced high yellow and green belt poomsae and self defense. We also worked on kicks and rolls. I didn't stay for pizza and came home and relaxed and then finished my exercises. I'm about to shower and get ready for bed. I have sparring in the morning...

Happy Friday! Can't believe I forgot to post last night. Yesterday, worked, got all my bb requirements done, and survived a sparring class. Today I worked, got my bb requirements done, and went to black belt class this evening. Between yesterday and today I got in 3.5 miles. I'm looking forward to Super Bowl weekend. Hope everyone had a great day!

Today I had a 1/2 day at school and I had a normal day. We just did everything shorter because we left at 12 and because valentine is next week. We made a heart valentines basket and after school I got to chill out for a couple hours and rest and then I didn't work out for my taekwondo requirements and then I went to early Ssparing and I did my black belt class. We had pizza for dinner at taekwondo and set up for the junior tiger class on Saturday morning.

Today was day two of my sore toe. I tried to do my black belt requirements. I got the requirements done but my toe hurt the whole time and I had to lift up my leg to do push ups, burpees, and planks because I couldn't put any amount of pressure on my toe. I went to TKD early for the advanced sparring class and I could only kick with my right foot and that made me upset.

Today I had a good day at school because it is Friday. After school my grandpa came for the weekend because it is my moms birthday tomorrow and it's my dads birthday on Sunday. My grandma will come tomorrow afternoon.

 i was so happy because i could go to school today we did fun stuff then i did some reqiirments then i wewnt to block 3 after i went to kt then i got icecream  then i play vr bye                                           (new gorilla tag update)

First thing I did this morning was wake up! Then I got ready for school.  Then we walked to school and I ate a poptart.  When I got to school I did blocks and recess.  Finally I went to King Tiger and ran a mile and did my black belt stuff.  Then I did black belt class.  Then we finally went home and had dinner and then I went to bed.

Hello King Tiger Family. It has been a pretty good day. Had a bunch of productive meetings at work and starting to see some progress on some things. Had some situation that we should be able to resolve but it is silly and we should have taken care of this already. All good. Got our dogs home from doggy cay care and grabbed Nate from school. Got some food for Nate and I, and then we head to Black Belt Class. Looking forward to class. See you all soon. Take care.

Today was a regular day at school again. My teachers were feeling nice I guess and didn't give much homework. When I got home I did my requirements and am getting ready for black belt class.

today I woke up super early to do some homework. Then I got my miles done in PE. Social studies is very boring because we just studied for our test. In ELA we had to go to the media center because of something happening to the ceiling. The rest of the day was very slow until I got home. I did basketball and ate tons of food. Now I am getting ready for class bye.

Hello King Tiger! You might be wondering, how is Praneeth typing a journal at about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, when he should be at school? The answer to that question is, drumroll please, I have no school today!!! I am just about to finish my requirements for today when I got hungry and ate breakfast now. Guess what, today is national pizza day! Hope everyone has a great day today and I 'll see during Black Belt Class.    Hey quick joke: Why is Friday a happy day? Because the next day is a sadder day

I went running before sparring class, it was a guided interval speed training run. So had to run different paces for 80 secs with 80 sec rest.  The guided run voice on my app said to fully take the rest, don't try to keep running in-between rounds. You have to fully rest before you can give it your all. Especially this week with on the orientation modules for work, I feel like I keep running, and moving, and doing something. There always something to do.  But I can keep moving and moving and moving, trying to give my all all the time. I really have to almost force myself to stop and slow down, recover. There so much I want to do, but if I don't stop to recover, I can't give it my all.  

The morning weather was perfect for running, and run I did.  

today i went to jail then i went to sparring class and did a mentor session with master weeks. im running on 4 hours of sleep so i was so tired today but i still powered through. please be summer already.

Interesting day today! When I woke up, I was pretty excited because we had double p.e and we were going to launch rockets in the science club. Basically the rocket was made of cardboard, bottles, and tape, and we had to use air pressure to launch it without water so me and my fellow classmates were using all our strength on the bicycle pump. It was pretty hard but we managed to launch it up high in the sky. After school I assisted class for 6:00 and then took sparring class. It was pretty fun but for some reason I felt pretty tired. Back home, I ate and was able to watch Halo. Good night to all!!

Today i had a math test and i got a 11/12 which is one of the best scores in the entire class. In science we “graduated” from the unit so my teacher did this whole thing and gave us diplomas and cookies and juice which was yummy and for the rest of the class we played games. I don’t really remember what we did in spanish cause is kept zoning out. In social studies we finished our poster and we just have to color it. In Ela we had a sub who was my former science teacher so i really liked her. We went to the media center for the entire class period and did an assignment. Me and my friend Rachael were laughing so hard because of what anderson was doing so i had fun. After school i had a snack then went to my mentee session. Then i headed...

Hi King Tiger Family. Thursday night. All is well. Went to sparring and helped with classes before. Got a mentee session in as well. Need more Leadership, so need to ask more often. Did some requirements and ate a yummy dinner my wife cooked. Getting ready for bed and then resting for the next day. Have a great night and weekend. Take care.

Today my history teacher dropped my grade for some reason. I did the test in the back and the lessons except for one but she said "You can just do that one for homework because you have been good for the past two weeks just turn it in on Monday." We also had five more minutes of class left and I don't know why she said I've been good for two weeks, I've been good for three weeks so I was mad about that. After school I went too TKD at the North Charlotte location for sparring. After the match I felt something dripping. It was blood, I look down and it was my bruised toe and I don't know how.

Hello King Tiger! I couldn't type yesterday's journal because I was busy doing a project and I went to sleep at about 11 o'clock. Today started off great. I went to school and got a 100 on a test. I turned in the project today during that class. I did the requirements and went to sparring class. Sparring was fun, I guess. I really need to get more leaderships credits. I just watched Percy Jackson and I am typing my journal now. See y'all tomorrow!

Today I had a good day at school and for every holiday we make cards and stuff for old age homes so for Valentine’s Day we made paper roses. The funny thing was that me and one other person were the only people who figured out how to make them so we did all the work but still needed to make 48 more. Knowing this I did the roses at home and then did my requirements. After that I had dinner and I’m about to go to bed.

Hello guys. Today will be a short journal because i have to work on my essays. So let me tell you about sparring class. I was sparring a smaller kid and I didn't know whether to kick her because I didn't want to overwhelm her but master marcus said to kick her so I was feeling confused. But when I spar someone my own size I throw all sorts of kicks. I can feel myself improving and that's what it's all about. Anyway, hope you guys had a great day and i hope that your black belt cycle is going well. See you tomorrow at black belt class. Hugs and kicks, Matthew.

I woke up and got ready for school.  Then we walked to school.  At school we did blocks.  After school I got to King Tiger and did most of my black belt stuff.  I did sparring and I sparred the same kid twice.  Also Brien came to watch me spar! Finally we went home had dinner, showered and I finished my self defense and wrote this journal!

I woke up today and did my normal thing, except no requirements. I then went to school, which was pretty fun. I had JROTC today and it was uniform day. I then went home and hung out with my girlfriend. I did some studying while she was over. I then went to Tae Kwon Do. I helped out with class and took sparring. My dad got a little injury at sparring so I spent some of the class making sure he was "ok." I then went home ate and did some requirements. I then showered and now I am here. 

Today I woke up early and put posters in then went to school. I've already raised $206 and I would like to raise more for my band so please support me if you can! After school I went straight to class then did all of my requirements. I went home and did homework then I started crying because I'm so tired. I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe!

Today I went to school and we had to do book clubs in reading. When I got home I went to TKD and helped with the 3 classes. I did a mentee session and then a mentor session with Master Foster. I got frustrated before TKD because I am tired and need a break. 

 today i did some requirments then i watched some tv bye

Today I had another normal day at school with no tests.   After school I read some of a book for school and did my requirements.  I helped in 515 class, took 6 o'clock class and then did sparring. Its Chick fil A time and then bed.  

Hello! Today I went to school and had art today and then I had a decently hard math test, and I wasn't that confident with it :(.  After school I did my homework then did my requirements, after that I had Burger King.  I couldn't get to Sparring Class today, because I was on a tight schedule.  So my dad just cut my hair for our trip to Baltimore tomorrow!       Good night!

Today I went to school and didn't really do much. When I got home I did my requirements and some homework. Then I went to sparring.

today was very slow so there’s not much that happened in school. But I did get picked up early for a dentist appointment. It was super quick and they said I have zero cavities and I’m brushing and flossing well. Then I went over whom sings and self-defense for a while when I got home. then I went to sparring class, it was great. Now I am at home, showering and eating before I go to bed. Good night!

Today, after coming from school, and I went to Tae Kwon Do where I had sparring. I sparred three times, and someone unfortunately got injured while I was there. I am going to take a shower now and do homework.

Hello King Tiger Family. Today I went to school and had a normal day, we got  Thursday folders and report cards. I got all  A's so here come my blue pants! Well I got an A average last quarter too though. After school I went home and did requirements and now I am relaxing. Tomorrow is Friday so yay!

School so far is going well. We just had a meeting for CPCC (college) courses if we want to take any in the future. I'm not sure if I will next year, I might wait so that I can do summer courses. Overall another uneventful day. Though I did once again forget to journal yesterday. Another habit I really need to break: forgetting.......

I fell asleep sometime inbetween read my book for school, Night by Elie Wiesel, and doing requirements. I’ll have to do some math when I get home today to find out how much I did, oops!  Today, we have a socratic seminar, and while usually I tend to watch more than speak, I want to be more involved in the conversation today.  I’m going mute tomorrow, as it is a Friday which means my classes are shorter and we do a lot of team based activities during the second half of the school day. Because it is team based, I’m going to have to find out creative ways to communicate with my group, as we’re normally not allowed to use our phones. It is going to be interesting, and good for my essay!!!

Today I woke up the. Did my black belt requirements except my run but I hope it will go by fast because I’m exhausted of school since all school is, is just go to it and try not to fall asleep

today i went to jail and then went to taekwondo and did a leadership and attended black belt class. now i have to do homeworrk.

Today I worked on more kicks than usual along with my other requirements.  A shipmate of mine called to see if I was still running in the Hot Chocolate 5k, but was worried that we were supposed to train close to a year earlier, as she was confused with training for a marathon.  I assured her that we could run the 5k.  We will run three miles in the morning using the Galloway method.  I'm really excited about the run.  

Today was another one of those autopilot days. I did the same things as usual. Worked, went home and ate dinner. Played with my dog, and am chillin.

Today was a long day. I woke up, did my thing, and went to school. Today I met with one of my counselors to talk about my classes for next year. I then came home and hung out with my girlfriend for a little bit. I then went and worked out. I came home afterwards and went to youth group at our church. Afterwards I came home and read for a while since I have reading due tomorrow. Now I am here. 

Good Evening King Tiger Family! Today was a great day. I went to school and had a normal day. I was able to do some requirements at school in p.e and during recess. After school I went to taekwondo class. I was excited to learn about all of the credits I received because I attended jr instructor's camp. After high belt class we had black belt curriculum class and worked on sticks and staff forms. I learned that I need to practice my sticks more and I did pretty well with staff form. I came home and finished up my requirements and took a shower. I'm about to watch a little tv before heading to bed. 

Lots of desk work today. I did end the evening with a workout and taekwondo. Probably will go to bed now so I can wake up early and finish some more work. 

Today wasn’t the best day for me. I woke up and went to school at school we play soccer and I got slide tackled and then kicked in the stomach. The only good thing was that I scored the game winning goal. After school I had a bad headache but I still did some requirements. After that I slept for a while. At TKD I met with my mentee and had a session.

Today I woke up and did my black belt requirements. Then, got ready for school and got some donuts on the way to school. I went to school and immediately had math map testing. That test went really good, I got a 253 on it. Then the rest of my classes were shortened. I came home, I ran 1.75 miles and did some extra pull ups after that. Then I did extra planks. Then I played some video games, ate dinner, and took a shower. I did 5 minutes of extra planks and then Poomsaes. 

Today was busy. First of all i woke up with a really stuffy nose so that’s fun. At school i didn’t have a break in any of my classes . In math we did a worksheet. In science we did another assignment but it was a group thing so it was pretty fun. In spanish we went over how to say time. In social studies rachael joined our group so we got to the middle of the project and are near the end. in Ela we did a short assignment and then read and my teacher kept having me go back and first to and from the printer room but I didnt mind it because i like printing stuff for her. After school i didn’t have much time so i quickly did some of my requirements and headed to my TKD i helped out with a few classes then had my...

PS - thank you to Grand Master Evins and all the other great masters for the Jr instructor's camp experience all the lessons learned. The credits are a bonus but I would have done it for free! One of your favorite Matthews on 123 Ooga Booga Street.

Hi Guys. How's your day been going? If it's been good, good! If it's been bad, look forward to tomorrow. Sometimes it's just one of those days. I would like to say congratulations to Instructor Logan who will be a high school graduate in the next 24 hours. Master Chelly made an announcement after adult class when we were getting ready to go home. My dad told me that Instructor Cortney is a nurse now so congratulations to her also. It's great to see everyone making all of these accomplishments and how far we've come, from learning to walk to getting your first degree black belt or second, or third or master. Also, it's amazing how much we've grown as the Tae Kwon Do family. We're a team and that's what we'll continue to grow as. My spidey senses are tingling - i think my mortal care givers want me to go to...

Today I woke up and straightened my hair because I showered last night. Then I went to school and I was suppose to have math superstars but the teacher never came. When I got home my sister was sick so I was the only person who went to TKD and I had tacos for dinner. In class we practiced our self defenses and worked with sticks and staffs during the high belt class.

Today I got out of bed with this pain in my leg. At first I thought we had to cut it off but it just lasted for the morning. At school there was nothing in the Bags of hope box. After school I went to TKD and practiced forms and self-defense. 

Happy Wednesday! It was a busy day! Got in 2 1/2 miles. Did my bb requirements. Worked. Took Jovi to get a recorder for his 4th grade music class and then to his piano lesson. Then he and I went to taekwondo where I got a mentee session in and a class assistance credit. Late dinner after that. Hope everyone had a great day!

Happy Wednesday! I Today at school, I had music and we practice with the recorder, then I went to the school library for the book fair.  there were a lot of cool stuff. After school, I did my requirements.I drank some delicious chocolate milk and got ready to class to assist the 5:15 class and then I participated in the 6pm class. When I got home I did some band exercises and had dinner. Now I am working on my homework due tomorrow. Night night!

Today was like normal. I did my mile this morning and went to school. Then at school I popped my neck or something because I did not feel good after that. My head hurt, my arm hurt, I had a shortage of breath and everything. I took medicine when I got home and went to class for a mentee credit and leadership and assistant credit. When I went home I grabbed my posters for my school fundraiser and went and put some in mailboxes before going home and doing everything else. I got more posters to put out in neighbor's mailboxes tomorrow! I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe!

I woke up and got ready for school.  We walked to school.  At school I did blocks like normal, today we started learning to play the recorder in music class.  Then I went to KT and had class (as a white belt....and my mom was teasing me and then a few other girls joined in).  Then I did my black belt stuff and a session with my mentee Jensen.  He also helped me with my stuff by timing me.  Finally we went home and had dinner and now I am writing this and finishing up my hw for school and then getting a shower and going to bed.  Thank you Grand Master Evins for the credits from Jr. Instructor camp!!

Today I had another normal day of school with no test. After school I went to TKD and did class assist and  got mentored. I also went over the test questions with my mentor so I can begin to study. I had shake shack for dinner. It was so good! 

Today, after coming back from school, I went to Tae Kwon Do. I did a class assistance and a mentee session. At my mentee session, I went over Chil Chang and Pal Chang with him. I planned for us to also do some self-defense as well but we ran out of time. I am headed home to do homework and Poomsaes.

today went very slow. In health we learned about the human anatomy and in PE I got my miles done. And social studies we continue to go over notes and study for our test. And ELA we started a big project which seems very exciting. Now I am preparing for basketball practice and I’m super excited. Good night!

Good Morning King Tiger Family, I missed yesterday so to quickly catch up. I am in Plano TX for work. We have an office here and visiting some of my teammates who are out here. Weather has been good and gotten some runs in. I also be working on requirements since I am traveling, so taking advantage of that. Work is work, but it has been great to visit people in person that I have only met or interacted remotely with. Heading back tonight to Charlotte. Looking forward to coming home. When traveling, I do like to get to know the area, but really did not get a chance to do that much this time. I will be back and will need to make it a longer trip. I hope you all have a great day. Take care.

Today started off great. As in I had chicken for breakfast gotta love chicken. The rest of the day was pretty normal. Got asked a lot of weird questions and ended the day eith meatloaf.

A very active day. I told myself to go to CrossFit today because it was alot of jump rope, running, handstand pushups, burpees, and sit ups. I came home and did some training modules. Then I went to King Tiger and ran. I ran a 5K because I've been following a training app, but man, the running time and distance has been increasing. During some down town at KT, I had a rolling race and a cartwheel with some of the kids. Later this in the evening I went roller skating, I've been working on a couple moves, I fell a couple times, I adding it to my fall times.

I spent a lot of time on my self-defense today, a lot of time like two to three hours, but that included a lot of pausing, rewinding and water.  I was very pleased with the outcome, but when I returned from class my brain bubble was empty.  : )  Class was great.  Aurora was a great partner to work with.  She remembers everything, she's very patient and respectful and a great coach!

Hi! Today in science class I learned the Gulf Stream and its circulation and why it is so important to global climate. The gulf supplies warm water to Northen Europe. Pretty cool. When I got home, my sister and I went for a walk/jog/run. After that,I did my requirements. I played video games and relaxed for the rest of the evening. Good night!

Hell King Tiger! I am going to type a short journal because I am so tired now. School was okay. I am going to start my registration process for next year tomorrow and I did a enzyme lab today. I finished my requirements and I am going to sleep now. Bye!!!!

Hello guys. Today was a cool day like most days. Although today I didn't go to class so that's a couple points off. I did get some good miles in though. At school, because it's black history month, they put up posters and exhibits so that you can read and study. We had to put facts that we found on an index card. That's all i have to write tonight. I'm really tired and it's past ten so I'm gonna go to bed, hit the hay, catch some z's, etc. 

Happy Tuesday! It was a busy day! Had a meeting at 7am so Joe had to get Jovi off to school today. I got some work done and went for a run. Made some flyers for the black belt community service project and dropped them off at King Tiger Lake Norman. Got bb requirements in. Got Jovi to his various activities this evening. Jovi and I finished his lego guitar and amp tonight. It is very detailed and cool. Hope everyone had a great day. 

Today was pretty fun. In math we did a 100 grid and i got candy. son science we just finished up our rotations and did something else. In spanish we didn’t really do anything because we were waiting for the people who had test corrections to finish. In social studies we started a new project. Rachael left halfway through because she was sick so i ended up partnering with bennett. In Ela i mostly read because rachael wasn’t there to keep me company and i ended finishing the book even though the rest of the class was only halfway through. After school I had a snack at home did my requirements then went to Tkd. I didn’t have any classes so i helped out with some and got leader ship credit and class assistance. After those I mentored hudson and went home. I just ate dinner and showered and completed some...

Hello! Today I woke up went to school, and had a history test and I think I did pretty well on it.  After that at recess I ran a mile and a half on the field.  When I got home from school I did some of my homework then I went to class, during the 5:15 class I assisted and did leadership 1.  After that class I did a mentee session with my mentee then took the 6:00 class, and worked on Keumgang and First Dan self defense.  When class was done I got everything signed and left for home, when I got home I did the rest of my math homework and did my requirements.         have a nice day!     BYEEEEE!!

2/6: today was a really hard day for me. I had a really difficult economy test and ended my relationship with my girlfriend. today was a reminder that nothing lasts forever unless you nurture it. no matter how much effort you put into something, if both sides don't put forth effort, then it is bound to fail. like taekwondo, if the master or instructor is putting in all the effort but the student is doing nothing then the educational relationship is bound to fail. the question is how do we care for something or someone who doesn't want help. you can't. no matter how hard you try, if the other party doesn't want to advance then it won't and vice versa. im going to end off my night with some homework and a late-night workout.

Good Evening King Tiger Family! Today I woke up feeling better. I woke up a little later than normal and I did not do any requirements before school. School was normal except when I got there I found out someone took my headphones out my cubby. No one admitted to having them and I had to borrow some from school. I was not happy because I just got them for Christmas. They are going to look into it tomorrow. I have another pair at home that mom my said I could take and bring back home for now. Other than that my day was good except now we can't play with other classes during recess because some kids don't listen. I spent most of recess running laps. We picked up chikfila for dinner when my mom picked me up and I did my requirements after that. I'm about to play video...

Today was a normal day at school I had study hall today so I could work on a project. After school I did some requirements and then did some homework. B6 the time I finished all my homework it was 6:30 so my mom made me dinner and then I organized my room and now I’m about to sleep.

I have no missing assignments at all now and my grades are a 90 average and i’m very proud of that. Today when i was walking to the bathroom at school a girl i’ve never met before she’s new walked out and stopped me to tell me I looked very pretty and it made my day. 

HI :) Today I went to TKD at around 6:40, and came home around 8:50. I worked on rolls and falls, pull ups, and planks for the time from 6:40 to 7:35. Then I took an adult class, where we worked on our self defenses, and I got to work with Mrs. Palmer!! After that, I worked with Jill, my mentee. We worked on her kicks for yellow belt and her self defenses. I mixed up high yellow and yellow belt, but I did fix that. She also got to use Matthew as her target. I'm not sure what his relation is to her, except that he makes an excellent punching bag. I have a math test tomorrow, which I'll pretend to be excited about. I know that stuff, its just the pressure that comes in the form of a test. yaaayyy mathh I also tried to explain velocity to my friend in...

Today I accidentally woke up late and then I had school. When I got home from school I played Fortnite and then I was on the phone with one of my friends. After that I headed to TKD and got Chick Fil A for dinner. After TKD my sisree wanted chick fil a too and so my mom said that I could get ice cream. Then I went home took a shower and went to bed

I woke up, got ready for school.  And like normal mom and I walked to school.  I got to school and did my normal school stuff.  I went to KT after and played with my friends and did my blackbelt stuff and ran a mile with Instructor Courtney!  After that we had Bojangles for dinner in the car on the way to scouts!  Then I came home took a shower, wrote this journal and read a little  more of the Grit workbook, now I am heading to bed!

Today I woke up and had the exact same morning routine as yesterday, except there was another curve ball. My nose started bleeding this morning. I am pretty sure it is because my room gets so dry at night; I plan to take some precautions now with a re-humidifier in my room. I dealt with the issue, was almost late for school, but still made it on time. I had a pretty normal day at school. After school I had a meeting about CPCC classes next year, which I plan to take; now I just have to work them into my schedule. After that I hung out with my girlfriend for about 30 minutes then went to run club. We had a pretty good workout and I got to hang out with some of my close friends. I then came home and finished up some requirements. Afterwards, I ate, did some...

Today was good. i started off with a mile run before school and had breakfast then didnt miss my bus today (unlike yesterday). My mom made 100 copies of my Popcorn Fundraiser poster so I can hand out in the neighborhood. After school, I did homework, practiced my oboe, ate dinner and ran another mile before doing all my other requirements. I even did 30 minutes of poomsae... I'm exhausted. I took a little break to write this journal and now back to finish a little bit more before bed.  I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe.  S5:E4 - Michael Jackson, Smooth Criminal.  4 out of 5. ("Annie, are you ok? Are you ok, Annie?")  That's all i have to say about this one.

Another light day. School was a little boring, but we did learn more of our spanish song in chorus today which is nice. Instructing today went well and now I'm back at home doing homework and talking with friends. This week seems like it will be pretty uneventful until the weekend.....

Today Bailey middle school chorus, band and orchastra came to our school and played some songs and music for the 5th graders. I liked the band instruments and it made me want to try out the trombone. I then went to TKD class tonight and did some more class assistance and a mentee session. Ate a hamburger for dinner and now getting ready for bed. Have a great night everyone!

Today I woke up to see my fish shoes have been cleaned thanks to my dad so I wore them to school today. While I was in science class a 5 year old got into a fight with another kid. He was sad and then I asked him "did you win?" And then he started giggling so I guess he did.

Today I got my miles done in PE. In social studies, we just studied for a test that we have next week. In ELA we worked on a project and my group finished it. Lunch and recess was pretty boring because they shortened it down. The rest of the day was pretty monotonous. Then I came home did some homework and studying after that I did requirements and now I am preparing for class.

I woke up and did my black belt things and now getting ready for school but I hope today will not be as bad as yesterday and I hope the test that I have tomorrow will go great so my teachers are not unhappy with me and I hope that today will just go by fast so I can just get home and finish my mile run.

This was another day that I felt like I didn't get much done, but realized I studied, swept, mopped, cleaned, washed dishes, washed clothes & dog beds, moved plants, walked the dog, rotated dogs every hour for free-ranging, completed TKD requirements, read a chapter of my book, filled in my calendar, attended a zoom meeting and ate...all without sugar today!  

today i woke up at 5 and knocked out my requirements in the morning before school. i went to jail and i had a pretty normal day. after school i was so tired and wanted to take a nap but i had to go to taekwondo to do a mentee session and help out with class. when i got home from school i found out that the power went out so i was practicing my forms and doing homework in the dark. i helped my dad hold the garage up while he took the car out because there was no power. i helped out with the class and had a good time seeing the kids. i've learned most of their names by now. i then did a mentee session with isa and came back home. it's currently 11:35 and i have more homework please save me

Today was like living on autopilot. I've had the same day many times before. But hey at the end of the day I'm still here being me. Had some chic fil a for dinner too.

Today was quite boring in school. We recieved a science project that lasts a whole 2 weeks that will probably bore me. I finally got back to instructing after being out for a week due to my knee. It felt so good to be back (though I forgot how exhausting it can be sometimes). I'm just finishing some homework now and will probably grab a snack. Tomorrow is going to be exciting, especially because my friend apparently has a suprise for me.....

Today I woke up and wore a new soccer jersey for Liverpool FC but they lost their match today. At school I finished all my work and my teacher just told me to sit down and do nothing for 20 mins and it was a boring 20 mins. After school I came home and did my requirements. At TKD I hyperextended my knee and was limping on the way out. 

2/5: today I woke up early and had a paper in English class today. we had to compare and contrast the lord of the flies book and movie. then I went to chipotle. then I ate, showered, and left for tkd. at kt Harrisburg we practiced our forms and our stick forms. then after class me, parker, and molly went for a night run together. I came home and did some math homework and now I'm going to study for an economy test that I have tomorrow.

Hello guys! Before you start reading make sure you like and subscribe and hit the notification bell so you know when I release a new journal entry. Thank you! Please enjoy! Today I did the usual including helping out out with classes after school. At night I came back for Master Chelley’s really cool self taught adult class. We couldn’t get through warmup without everyone laughing. One minute you’re counting like a whisper, you see Caleb make a sour face and then you’re counting like you’re cheering on your favorite sports team. We had fun but we worked really hard too. Well I’m sorry but that’s all the time I have tonight. It’s getting pretty late. I will leave you with a random fact. Did you know that your name spelled with the letters of your name is your name? (Boom) good night all

Happy Monday! Busier day than usual with work. Got a run in and bb requirements done for the day. Took Jovi to his guitar lesson. Went to King Tiger and had a session with my mentees and assisted with a class. Hope everyone had a great Monday. 

Today was a normal day i woke up went to school and got busy . in math we played a game and my team tied for first so we got candy.In science we had a sub so obviously i barely got any work done. In spanish we got our test scores back and I got a 100 which Im really happy about. In social studies me and rachael finished our project. I Ela I just read the entire class because I finished all the work. Once I got home I did my requirements then went to my Tkd. I first helped out with the Junior tiger class then went to my own Weekday black belt class. after I got a mentor session. Once i got home I ate dinner did a chore and now I need to go to sleep

And today started with me running one mile right after I woke up. Then missed the bus and had to ran another mile to school! I guess that's one way to get my running done! Other than that, today was really normal. My back is killing me. I did the rest of my requirements after the 6:45 class and I'm so ready for bed. Before bed though, my mom helped me make my poster for my school band fundraiser. I'm giving it to all my neighbors and putting it up at King Tiger to hopefully get some more people to support me. You wanna help? Click the link below between 2/8 - 2/12!  Thanks and stay safe.  Graceyn's Popcorn Fundraiser!

Hello King Tiger! Hey, quick joke: What do you call a person who likes Mondays? Unemployed. For some reason my computer is so cold and I am about to fall asleep while typing this journal. Today, I started reading Atomic Habits, and so far, so good. I am not wearing my glasses right now which is making me fall asleep, I guess. Today was fun. I finished a project early and I have to study for quiz tomorrow and a test on Thursday. For us, there is no school on Friday, which turned Friday into FriYay(Get it?) and it is also some time to finish some essays. Going to fall asleep. Bye y'all!!!!

Another normal day, except my dad is on a work trip. I woke up and did requirements; it was weird not doing them with my dad. I then went to school, which was pretty productive. I then came home did some homework then went to the gym and had a nice workout. It has been a month or so since I have been to the gym; I haven't been in a while mainly because I have been racing so much. Afterwards I headed straight to Tae Kwon Do. I helped out with a class and got to work with some yellow belts on proper blocking preps and IL Chang. Afterwards I came home and finished up my requirements for the day. I then finished homework, stretched, and now I am here. 

Good 9:09 PM! I finally got to take some classes today, a high belt class and then a black belt class. I then got to take a mentorship with Master Foster and Deetya. Although I am a little tired, I have many things to work on, and that in itself is motivating! I'm utilizing my laptop's timer again, so I can have focus periods for schoolwork and then take breaks to work on requirements :D Overall, a good day!!

Today I went to school and I got all of my history, math, and science work done and I placed a Bags of hope box. There was only one box of craft mac-n-cheese in the box. After school I went to TKD and danced instead of working out and I didn't like that because I'm not good at dancing. After TKD me and my friends went for a run in crocs. I couldn't keep up with them so I was alone in the dark.

Today I had school and I ran 2 miles on the playground. When I got home I tried playing Fortnight with my friend but it didn't work so I just hanged out until I went to TKD. Before I went I had 2 corndogs for dinner and after TKD we ran a mile outside at this park. It freezing cold. 

Today I went to school and had a bible and science test I think I did pretty decent on them, then I had PE with was boring for once :0.  After school I did my homework and then went to class.  During the 5:15 class I assisted and did leadership 1, after that class I did a mentor session with Master Marcus, and worked on knife self defense.  Then I took the 6:00 class and we did poomsae and self defense in the back, when I got home I ate and did my requirements.     Have a nice day or night!

I woke up this morning got ready for school.  Mom and I walked to school.  I had a math test today at school, we did blocks like normal.  Then I got to KT and took class, this week I am doing my white belt challenge! After class I did some black belt stuff, did a session with my mentee and played with my friends.  Finally we went home and had TACOS for dinner.  Now I am going to bed.

Monday, monday... back to school. It was kind of a relax day since we had a sub. After school, I went home and I worked out for 25 minutes with my sister. Then I got ready for taekwondo at 5:15 class and I did some assistance. Then I took the 6:00 pm class. We practiced a lot the geumgang poomsae and I practiced the mountain stance and did high kicking defense as well. That basically sums up my day so it is time to go to bed!
