Candidate Journals

today marks the first week of the black belt cycle. today i woke up, went back to sleep for an hour, finally got out of bed and made breakfast. after eating i did my requirements for the day. we got krispy kreme today, which was strange because my family usually goes dunkin over krispy (idk why, we've always done it that way). my favorite is boston cream/chocolate glazed w cream bUt mY sIsTeR tOoK iT aLrEaDy (i need to stop w the capitalization thing) so i just ate a glazed one. we also played a new board game today, which is another tradition we have. our board game collection is piling up. today it was this game called "Takenoko" and it was so confusing at first we spent half an hour trying to figure out how to play the thing. eventually we got it though. today was a good day but i...

First week is in the book, got to say it was a nice day today, for December.  But looks like rain on my days off. O will all we can do is smile and do  More requirements.

Today was a chill day.  I got some time to relax and work on my requirements.  I spent a lot of time with our foster kittens and also played some basketball!  I’m ready to start the weekend.

Hey everyone! Today was a good day. I started my requirements in the morning, I then watched some tv. I went out to go eat for lunch. Afterwards, I did some more of my requirements. I’m planning to finish it up before I go to the movies with my friends. Hope you had a great day so far! Bye! 

John I hope you are doing well but we need to break up, all this exercise is making me tired and sore, you need to slow down and get onto other things like cookie eating and sleeping and watching TV. Enough of this getting better and stronger and what is this about an Ultra Race this summer, are you crazy. We need to talk and straighten you out.    The Best    Your Body and Mind    John 

Today is just another regular day on the pre-cycle. Wake up, eat breakfast, do requirements, and sleep. Nothing exciting is going to happen today so this is all I can write for now.

I know this cycle is going to be hard, but I will power through it and as the days go on, I hope it will be easier. How I know it's going to get easier, if I practice on the precycle and do my stuff with no skipping. I have found out by day 3 and 4, it is not as hard as the first day and I am not as sore. I had a fun Christmas! Me and my family went to Asheville, NC and we took our dogs. We went to see the Biltmore House during Christmas and went to a really fancy hotel across the street from Biltmore that was pet friendly. The dogs got to enjoy it too. We ate a lot of really nice dinners and one breakfast Santa and his wife were there and I got to tell them what I wanted for Christmas. I was really worried he wouldn't know I was at the hotel, but Santa came!

Day # 7! I wasn't able to blog when the cycle started but here I am. The family had a great Christmas, we were able to work out while on vacation so that was a plus! My diet went through the window, I'm pretty sure I ran it over for this week. Thankfully diets are easy to restart (well for me anyway). The down side to Christmas is I ended up getting what I think is a head cold, AGAIN! I am drowning myself in water to keep it from moving to my chest. At least it isn't like the 1 I got over Thanksgiving, I am still able to do things and be active. I am surprisingly sore from riding a horse for an hour, not sure how that happened. Hope everybody had a great Christmas!

Today I worked on my self defenses a lot.  I ran and took a big walk with my family and then we went to Carowinds and walked another mile.  Carowinds was fun especially the new parade.

The end of this decade is fast approaching. There are many distractions, look, a squirrel, and my boys are home, but they are reclusive and elusive. We are thinking about getting another dog. It has been several years since we last had one, but this time we are looking for a shelter dog which requires quite a bit of research up front, in addition to the time forever after.

Today we went to the store and got some new Lego sets with my Christmas money from my grandparents. My grandmother Nonny took us to the Lego store and then to Target. I got a Hogwarts Express Lego set and a Fortnite Nerf Gun. I went on a run again today, and learned not to go as fast at the start because it tires me out too fast. 

If I had still been in Denmark today would have been spent with all of my dad's side of the family. It used to be my grandmother who brought us all together and I totally expected it to fall apart without her, however the tradition continues. It is one of the few days a year that I miss being in Denmark, but not enough to go back. It was still a good day.and we went shopping for the Danish Christmas style lunch we planning for Saturday with friends.

Staying positive doesn't mean you have to be happy all the time.  It means that even on hard days you know that there are better ones coming.

Dear John Thought I would have a hangover after the holidays, not working out for one day seemed like it would kill me. I definitely had a workout hangover, but it was from being ideal and not doing anything and just sitting around with everybody. I did cook all day but that is different than burpees and pushup and well you know. So today we worked on double up on everything and made some progress. Hope you continue it tomorrow as I need to make sure you are stronger the next time I see you.    Take care for now   John 

today was chill in contrast to yesterday. after i journalled yesterday my dad wanted me to rake the leaves on our front lawn and i worked on that until sundown. there were so. many. leaves. if i see one more leaf anytime this week/month/year, i think i might scream. i ended up not doing my requirements, but i made up for that today. see you tomorrow, everyone.

Hey everyone! Today we are heading to the mall and going to do some shopping. We might watch a movie, if we have time. Afterwards, we are planning to eat out for lunch. In the evening, I’m planning on doing my requirements for the day. I’m so glad we don’t have school, it feels good not to wake up early! Well that’s about it! Have a great day! 

Today I woke up at 9 and ate breakfast. Somewhere at noon time I am probably going to start doing my requirements for today. Then, I might go to the gym with my dad to run my mile and  do my jump rope rounds. Unfortunately, I'm not going to go ice skating today but we are going Sunday!

Good morning ed returning to my normal routines. We're not doing anything special yet so I'm about to go through 4 days of repeating and might end up getting really bored. I don't have a lot to say right now but i'll try to get something out of me.

Yesterday was a great day. I finished my requirements during the day. In the evening i wanted to run but i had cold. My dad said that it is ok not to run with the cold. I am feeling better today but would definitely like to run. We are planning to go to Barnes and Nobles this evening to pick up some books and i also need to get my free birthday cookie as well. Have a good day everyone!

This morning it was Christmas and I woke up and got lots of presents from Santa and my parents. I got several Lego sets and my favorite is the Night Bus from Harry Potter. My Far and I went on a run today and it was hard but we got through it. I felt good afterwards. One of my presents is a keyboard, and I spent a lot of time playing silly music on it. We had a video chat with my grandparents in Denmark. My parents made pizza for dinner. It was a very good day.

Today was a really good day with the family. The kids loved their presents and we enjoyed some good food. Erik and I got another run in and we brought the younger dog with us, unfortunately the old dog is not up to running with us anymore. We also did a video chat with my parents back in Denmark and they got to see the kids open the present they sent. I am glad I don't have to go back to work tomorrow.

Merry Christmas  to all,  if you are like me I took the day off from the cycle .enjoy the day. But I did feel bad. 

12/25/19 Dear John  It has come to my attention that a young girl named Virginia asked about Santa Claus, well it ended with Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus. It was also proven by the US Postal Service on Miracle on 34th Street. S o you see by past experiences and case law there is  Santa Claus. So believe in the magic John is warm and forgiving, just as it should be this time of year. There is a great story about how in World War I the opposing sides for one day but down their arms and had Christmas Dinner together, it was truly a silent night.  Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night    John 

Today is Christmas ????!  I got a late start on my requirements because I was opening gifts!  I still did everything I needed to and more.  We also went to my Nana’s house.  I showed her some of my self defense forms.

Merryyy Christmas!! In the morning, I opened my presents. I got many things that I’m grateful for. We went over to our cousins to eat lunch, and we are still here just hanging out. I’m planning on starting my requirements soon. Have a great day!!:))

merry christmas everyone! my family woke me up around 7 to open presents early. i got a bunch of stuff, and after that i went back to sleep because it was 7. i rewoke up at 9 or 10. it's a really pretty day today and i'll probably do my requirements at the end of the day. for now, i'm just enjoying the sun. i am anticipating new year's because it's the start of the new decade and on the 31st we're going up to ohio to meet up with my cousins. 

Merry Christmas everybody! Today I`m taking a break off the cycle just for uno day. We are planning to go to some of our relitive's houses sense they invited us over and we might come back home very late. But I'm still excited because we kinda abit never get to see them alot. ;-;

Today I woke up at 9 and ate breakfast. Today my dad said that I don't have to do any requirements today because it is Christmas. I opened my presents at midnight. At 2 I am going to go to a Christmas party and I don't think I'm going to get home until 11 tonight. Merry Christmas everybody! I hope you have a nice day.

Spending Christmas with some relatives in Baltimore, MD.  Luckily there is a gym and that helps with requirements a lot!  I'm sure we will be eating some great food this evening, so of course trying to stay active.  Pretty easy to do when you have a 2 year old.  Since I have my cycle book with me all the time, my son loves to try to grab it randomly.  It will be interesting to see what it looks like by the end of the cycle.   Merry Christmas and Happy holidays everyone!

Today is Christmas!!!! Merry Christmas everyone. I woke up early and working on my requirements. My dad said that it is going to be warm this afternoon and my brother and i will go for a run outside again today. 

Today is Christmas Eve!  The weather was very nice so I was able to get in a long run/walk.  I worked on a lot of self defenses today and used the new pull up bar.  It really helped with my pull ups.  I’m excited for Christmas ???? 

The day before Christmas,  still doing  Requirements, Trying to knock off all the cookies I ate do day.  Wishing everybody a merry Christmas.

I have been working on my assignment since morning. My brother and I went out for a run. The weather was really great. I am just finishing my requirements. Merry Christmas everyone!

hello and merry christmas eve. today was a good day. i woke up and ate breakfast, and after breakfast my mom gave me a talk on how Santa is... well, you know. i mean, i had already knew that years prior but she didn't know that i knew. i guess i faked it well? i don't want to type it because there are some people on the site that still.. well, you know. after that i wrapped presents with her and set an alarm to 3 am  (when everyone else will be asleep) so i could... well, you know. that's enough on that. after that i did my requirements and ate some lunch. i went for a walk with my family today and the weather was really nice. we drove this remote control car around and then i got my ripstik out and did a couple rounds on that. then we went...

Dear John,    I understand Virginia that yes there is a Santa Claus and it is a joy to make merry the holiday season. Always remember your family and friends  they are a big part of the holiday. Remember the best gift we can have with the birth of Jesus. He is your best bet in having a wonderful holiday. So remember where you are the past present and future Christmas as they make up how you are and enjoy making new ones with your children no matter what age.    Until next time   John 

It’s Christmas Eve!!!! I can’t wait for Christmas Day. Today I didn’t really do anything. I wrapped some presents and went shopping. I’m currently finishing up my requirements for the day. In about 2 hours, I’m going to Christmas Eve mass. Have a good rest of your day! Bye!! 

happy chirstmas eve! I don`t know what I am doing for Chirstmas and might just stay home with Familyl. Today is like any usaual Cycle day, wake up, eat, do work, other stuff, sleep, and repeat. I soon might get tired of this way of doing it and change the schudule a bit, but for now I got to stick with it. >:V

Today I woke up at 9 and read 4 chapters of my book, "The Hurricane Child". After that I played cards with my brother. I'm about to eat breakfast, then did my requirements and work on my essays a little bit. Then I am probably going to the gym to run my mile and do my jump rope rounds. Merry early Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today my family and I will be flying up to Boston for Christmas. I’m very excited to see all of my cousins! I hope to practice falls up there as there is a lot of snow to fall into. I’m also very excited because after Christmas I will be going skiing with some old friends.

Excited going to Boston to celebrate Christmas with my family.  Also going snowboarding with my sister and best friend from home and their families. Luci and I hope to do some self defense in the snow. 

Today it was raining, but I still got a mile in.  The rain kept me indoors and I got a lot of my requirements done.  I went to class, and was able to earn a leadership credit.

hey !! today was day four of our road trip and not going to lie it was kind of boring. we sat in a car ALL day. that wasn’t the original plan though. the original plan was to go to lake tahoe. however, the road that we had to travel to take us there required us to have a chain. so, that’s what we did. we bought a $200 chain and continued our journey (we thought to put the chain on once we get further down the road). once we tried to put it on, it was the wrong size. by the time we got back to the store there was no point in going back to the lake because our hotel is three hours away. i did manage to get some requirements in once i got to the hotel, i’ve been trying to do them whenever i can, because most...

Work is pretty busy at this time of year. It would be nice to have a slow time once in a while, but it really has been several years since that has happened. It will be too easy to get behind this time around. Just need to buckle down and do it. It has been really nice to have my two boys at home. It will surely not happen often anymore. Oh we, I'll take what I can get! 

hi guys today I went to king tiger for teacher work day camp,then I went to go get a haircut and it looks good,and also I got my new bunk bed delivered to my house,and the top bunk is so high that I can touch my ceiling.i also did lots and lots of reQuirements.and at 9:15-9:49  I was playing basketball in my garage,and watching football.green bay packers vs minosota Vikings,and the Vikings are winning at halftime 10-9.well bye guys write agin tomorrow on Christmas EVE????????‍♂️ 

and we are back, everyone, to Monday. today was an okay day. i woke up around 11 because i had stayed (staid? staiyd? or maybe staiiyed...) up late last night. after that i sat in bed for some time and then rolled out of bed because i had stuff to do. after i ate breakfast, i was cleaning my room and as I was cleaning it proceeded become a really deep clean. after i was done with that, i did my laundry and my requirements. i tried to do more today bc i didn’t do any requirements yesterday. then i tried to get on the site and chrome said something about an unsafe connection that it had been saying alllllllll day. i figured it would fix itself by the end of the day but NoOoOoOoO it had to pull this stuff. i tried troubleshooting by checking if the certificate for the...

Day off , rainy day ,do requirements. Enjoy the warmth of the inside of the house. 

Hey everybody! I didn’t really do anything today. In the morning, I had to go grocery shopping with my dad. Afterwards, we went to go get some Starbucks. After, I started working on my requirements. Right now I’m at my cousins house. Once I go back home, I plan on finishing my requirements for the day. Have a good rest of your day! Bye! 

Good Afternoon, These are letters to myself. I hope you are well, I hope this journey is exciting and new to you. I am pround of you for where you are going and am excited to see the outcome on the others side. Remember the journey is not easy, and remeber to keep your head up and do not give in to tempations to make it any easi

Today has been a good day so far. I finished all my requirements in the morning as I am getting ready to pick up my grand uncle from the airport shortly. Yesterday my brother and I ran a mile and I am hoping to run today.

Today I woke up late at 10 am. I`m probably going to the gym again to run my two miles later after I finished my requirements. On Thursday me and my siblings are ice skating on. Unfortunately I`m not driving but my big brother Matthew is.

Today is just a regular day on the cycle. I woke up at 7:30 and read a book for a few minutes then fell asleep again. I'm going to do my requirements sometime at noon. Two days until Christmas, I'm very excited! I wonder what I'm gonna get this year. I hope everyday has a good day.

hey !! today was day three of our road trip and was definitely the coldest one (so far). we went to mount whitney, where we stopped at many different built in locations that were made for stopping and taking pictures and such. the wind was sharp, and it stung our faces more and more with every minute that passed. we then went to mammoth lake, and it was breathtaking. the mountains were snowed upon and were somehow placed perfectly in proportion to the massive and gorgeous lake. i consider myself lucky that i get to see this sights. have a nice night !! - katyayani

Try to get everything going with the cycle. Get some physical requirements in while reviewing my color belt stuff trying to get ready for the pretest.

Yesterday during black belt class I felt unsure of a few forms.  Today I watched the videos of those forms and practiced them a lot.  I feel a lot more confident of my forms.  I am trying to get a little ahead on my physical fitness so I’m feeling a little bit sore tonight.

Good evening! Today morning I went to church and came back at around 12. I then at some lunch once I arrived home. Right after, I started working on my requirements for the day. We are now ordering some dinner, pizza! Afterwards, I’m planning on just finishing up my requirements for today and then ending the day by watching some tv! Have a good rest of your day! 

Today has been a good day. I have been working on my assignments and will be doing my requirements as well. Hopefully I am done earlier so that i can watch TV. My grand uncle is coming from Canada tomorrow and will be with us for a couple of weeks. He visits us every summer and winter. He lives in Montreal. Earlier this month i competed in my first spelling bee. I won my class bee and came in the top 6 in school. It was good for a first time and i hope i can go all the way next year.

Today is just a normal day. I woke up at 9 to do some of my requirements then ate breakfast. After that I got ready to go to church. After church I'm planning to finish the rest of my requirements that I didn't do in the morning. And my brother will take me and my other brothers ice skating on Thursday! I'm so excited, and also happy birthday Ritika!!!

good morning people of the pre-cylcle. Today is like other regular Sunday expect I`m going to the Ymca to run 2 miles again like yesterday! I`m planning to do some of my poomsaes and self-defense when i come back and rest because I woke up early today and finish some of my stuff. 

gooooooooooood morning everyone. i'm journalling early today because (last time i'll mention it, i promise. maybe.) iT's mY bIrThDaY. i am pretty excited for this upcoming day and am looking forward to spending a quiet, calm (emphasis on quiet and calm, coughcoughmYsIbLiNgScoughcough) day with my family. no homework, no stress, no nothing. and another thing, and this is totally off topic, but you know how people say pets tend to resemble their owners or that over time owners start to resemble their pets? well, i never believed it until i was hanging out with my pet and i suddenly realized that we look really similar. so that was interesting. i'm gonna go eat breakfast, so adios muchachos y see you tomorrow. 

hey! i’m back again and ready for the upcoming cycle. i’m currently in california, taking a road trip with my family to go see several attractions around california and nevada. today’s stop was death valley, at a point, we were around 282 miles below sea level ! my cousins and i thoroughly enjoyed (they specifically enjoyed laughing at me making tiktoks????) i’m extremely tired after the long day but i’m looking forward to tomorrow !! have a nice night - katyayani :)

Today is the first day of the black belt precycle!  I have planned out my training and I’m ready to go.  Being an older student makes it a little harder to recover from injury, so I’ll need to be really careful with my right shoulder and my right ankle.  Now I just need to find a mentee.

Today was the first day of my black belt cycle.  I was happy and excited to start.  I went to both sparring and black belt class.  It was tiring, but I pushed through.  I learned a new form (koryo).  I’m ready to start again tomorrow.

Today I woke up a little late but I still made it to sparring class just in time though. After sparring class I had a mentor session with Master Dege before Black Belt Class started, we worked on Bolo form 1 and Keumgang. In Black Belt Class, we worked on poomsaes, staff, and sticks. When I got home I ate lunch and worked on my essays. At 4'o'clock I went to the YMCA to run and do some of my requirements. When I got home I did my basic kicks then worked a little bit more on my essays then showered. That's pretty much how my day was today! 

I am super excited for my next cycle. I have been working very hard for the past year and learning new stuff. Today marks the official start of this BB cycle. I am going to work harder this cycle. Good luck everybody!

Are you ready for this black belt cycle? Cause I am! Today was a simple day, I went to black belt and sparring class in the morning. I came back at around 12:30, and ate some lunch. After, I went on a run. When I came back, I was exhausted so I decided to watch some tv. Since I was able to knock out a lot of my requirements in tkd, I’m currently finishing it up for the day. At around 6, I am going to a Christmas event. So that will be fun! Well that’s about it! Have a great day! 

hello, everyone. it has been six months since i've been on the cycle and i am a first dan, and you know what that means. i am on the cycle again. today was a pretty good day. i woke up and got ready for tkd. tkd was fun and all but i am relieved to be home. after this, i have a friend coming over and (like i haven't said this 10000 times already) it is my birthday tomorrow. i like my birthday because everyone's in a good mood because it's christmas time, but my birthday is far enough from christmas that people will remember it and have time to come to birthday parties and stuff. well, i gotta go. peace out pine lake.

Today was the first day of the pre cycle. I already got a mentor session done and most of my requirements. After I`m done with this, I`ll finish up those requirements!

Wow! A lot going on and time slipping away quickly. So much to do and learn. Matthew left for boot camp last week and imagining what he'll have to deal with, I have no excuses, just need to buckle down and get it done. 

Today was a good day. I had a day off and slept till 10:30 because of halloween. And as my mom says you go to a private school why do you get a day off like every week but the only reason we had no school today was because of parent teacher conferences.

Today was a good day. I went to TKD and got to help the color belts with there poomsaes especially the red belts because I got to work with them on Yuk chang. I can't wait till Halloween and get to go trick or treating in my neighborhood with my friends. 

Today was a good day. I got promoted in my Spanish class. I'm now doing intermediate Spanish. In social studies, I presented my building project. We had to build a fortified trading post. I'm going to BBC at 7:30 today.

Today was a good day. I had soccer practice and we did a lot of drills and not much playing. School was kind of boring in Math we took a CML which is a math test that has six questions and it is ranked in best in the state the country and the reigon.

Today was a decent day. I had school while every other school didn't. Although the day was good at school we presented our math project to the class and we got to have a story time in english. 

Today was a good day. I have been having party's back to back for the past several days. Today I am going to My friend Katyanys house for a party. 

Today was a good day. I went to sparing class at the Lake Norman dojang and scored lots of head shots and I got to meet new people. When I got home dinner was just like any other but I read for a while before going to bed. 

Today was a good day. I had to go back to school after our long weekend Friday to Monday. I had fun in school and played well in soccer. My Defense was good and so was my offense.

Today was a good day. I had to go to robotics so I sadly missed sparing class and weekend class. When I finished the Mega bloks set my teacher gave me and brought it in him and his son were very surprised that I built it only using 3-4 pictures and no instructions. 

It's honestly unbelievable. I never thought I could get through the cycle successfully. Tae Kwon Do has honestly changed me for the better. I began as a tiny child who would probably cry at the slightest insult, but now I feel as if I could fend for myself! I give a deep thank you to Master Evins, Master Chelley, all the Masters, instructors, and my fellow candidates. I am so grateful to you all and think we can all do great things if we put our mind to it!

The black belt test is over, but I am going to continue my audit cycle until my official cycle starts in January. I have written out a training plan that I will do in addition to requirements. I will continue to build up my strength and improve my physical form. .I have a lot of work still to do.

OMG! Watching the Black Belt testing last night and this afternoon made me realize how much work I need to put in and I probably really have no clue. I certainly don't want to embarrass myself, Grandmaster Evins, Grandmaster Lee, or others testing with me. Time to step up my game and come up with a workable plan. But first, it's time to get some sleep.

I am kind of excited and nervous for this test, but I know this will most likely push me to do my best today and tomorrow.

Its the final count down. the black belt test is in 5 hours and I can't stress how pumped I am. I hope it doesn't drag on for hours on end till 6 in the morning just remember strong rechambers good stances and confident ki hop.

Testing today, I am super pump! its getting colder so my tree should be growing better

Today when logging I realized I might not become a black belt...

This will be my final journal because I have testing tomorrow. I am very nervous but I know I'm ready. Thank you all for being on the cycle with me. Good luck to everybody! See you tomorrow!

Today was a teacher workday, so I had a free schedule.  I didn't have to go to school in the morning, and I am grateful for a break like that.  I played some golf in the afternoon, the first time I played since the end of summer vacation.  Since my dad had to drop my sisters off at soccer, I had to bike to Tae Kwon Do, but it was worth it because I got to work on some of the final things before testing, including my breaking routine.  I anticipated that to be the hardest part of testing, but I actually did pretty good after that extra time practicing it.

Today was a good day. I did not have school today because we had a Jewish holiday that my school does. I went to Tae Kwon Do to have a mentee session then left to go to music class. Afterward me my sister and my mom went to Tacos 4 Life.

This has been a crazy week. Haven’t journaled for the past two days and haven’t been able to get many requirements done. My audit cycle is almost over and I still have so much work to do. I’m looking forward to watching the private test Friday night.

Today was a teacher work day and i relaxed a lot and i got a bunch of requirements done

Today, I did my last sparring class for the cycle, even though I already had the required sparring classes.  It was fun even though I didn't get to spar Nate.  I was sore from the weightlifting I did yesterday, but that didn't stop me from doing good in my sparring rounds!  Tomorrow is a teacher workday, and I am off school, so I will be able to relax then.

It has been FOREVER since I have been to boy scouts and I have been taking a break so I am very excited

The cooler weather is nice to get some miles in after work. I am glad I have another cycle to prepare for testing. I don't feel very strong these days, especially my wrists. I need to figure that out somehow.

Today after school I learned that Cross Country would be working with Indoor Track at my school for the rest of the Cross Country season.  We didn't do any running, as we were weightlifting instead today.  Later, I went to Tae Kwon Do and got my last Leadership 2 credit, and I worked on a lot of poomsaes there too.  I also got a lot of my homework done.  Today was a pretty productive day.

i really overdid it yesterday.  I have been so sore today and Advil hasn’t even touched it.  I’ll be working on sit-ups, SD, Poomsaes, jump rope and sparring rounds tonight.  No pushups for me.  

Today I went to work a lot on my homework that is due tomorrow!

Today was a good day. In robotics today I finished making our teams robot with all the specifications that our team wanted. At Tae Kwon Do helping the color belts was very fun and they all worked very well together.

I was so exhausted after working on requirements yesterday that I forgot to journal.   My shoulder is hurting so much now that I can’t do push-ups on the floor. My form is terrible. I will just have to keep modifying the way I do them.   I will probably give myself a break from push-ups after the black belt test on Saturday.   This is my audit cycle, so I will have to continue doing requirements until my test in April. 

Right now I am testing a theory please ignore this post  

Today I got a lot of work down so it made me really exhausted  

Today was a normal Sunday, somewhat boring as usual.  I started filming my next YouTube video, but I got stuck as I didn't have any good voice actor for Toad.  This week will be a 3 day school week, as I have Wednesday as a teacher workday and I am taking the day off on Friday so I won't be tired from school on testing night.
