Candidate Journals

I woke up around 3AM this morning and realized I could not get myself to fall asleep. I thought nothing much of it, and instead used the time to write some college essays, work on some requirements, and study some precalc (which I am definitely understanding). Then I went to school. After school, I concluded that not sleeping has severely adverse affects, especially when falling asleep late (12AM) and waking up early (aforementioned 3AM), such as becoming incomprehensible to my friends. I thought it would be in my best interest to take a nap. I set an alarm for 6PM, as I came home at 5PM and after showering and helping unload dishes it was 530PM, and it seemed like adequate time. I would be up in time to do homework and get ready for the 650PM high belt class and the black belt class right after. Except I was ridiculously way...

Hello, today I had a long day, I woke up at my nana's house, then we went to get Chick-Fil-A, after that we went to pick up my grandma to go visit my dad in the hospital.  When we got there we took turns having two of us go into my dads room, then we left my grandma there with him to spend time with him.  After that my nana, and I left to go to my house so I could do my exercises, then after that we came to pick up my grandma, and bring her home.  After that we came back home and rested.         I hope you all have a great day!

Hello guys! How's it going? Good? Awesome! Tonight I want to talk about my field trip that I'm going on tomorrow. We're going to Discovery Place in Charlotte where, in case you haven't heard about it, it's like a fun non-fiction book where you learn about things as you go about the museum. My last field trip was on December 1st to old Winston Salem. It was cool because a lot of people there were dressed in clothes that you would see people wearing 200 years ago. It was all pretty facinating. I bought my dad a gift for Christmas on that trip. Anyway, I'm very excited about my trip tomorrow and I hope you all have a great day. G'night night. PS - the chicken is burning! Go get it!

Today I slept in a lot since we didn't have school. I then started my morning with requirements and breakfast. Today and tomorrow we are getting out cabinets painted in the kitchen, so I ate out a lot today. I the built some of my new Warhammer 40K Lemon Russ tank. After that I played Fortnite with my friend. Afterwards I went out to get lunch and studied on the ride. I then got home and got ready to go workout. It was a hard workout, but I am glad I went and got after it. Following that, I went to Tae Kwon Do and helped out with class. I then came home, hung out with my girlfriend, showered after she left, and now I am here. 

Today I had a day off so I got to relax and catch up on stuff. In the evening I went to work and then ate dinner. I was also able to catch up on some homework as well.

Today I got to stay home because we did not have school. I think it is presidents day or teacher workday and this morning. Our cleaning lady came and she clean the house and she did the downstairs first so so so me and my sister and my brother can actually wake up and then. When she was done cleaning downstairs, we all moved downstairs but my mom had to leave because she has jury duty and I made cinnamon rolls for breakfast and for my black belts cycle requirements for a new activity and I just chilled around and cleaned up my mess for making the cinnamon rolls and my mom for she was out. She got us ZIP Code and when we got home I got thrown off over there and go to taekwondo.

I have a lot to recap on. The reason that i wasn’t doing any of my journals was because i went to Atlanta. I went to Atlanta on friday and it was a 4 hour car ride. I mostly listened to music and was on my phone but i slept for a hour. halfway through we stopped for dinner which was Chick fil a. By the time we got there it was 11 PM so I was really tired and went to sleep immediately. The cousins i went with were 12 and 7, and we went to see our cousin who was 5. The next day I instinctively woke up early because I usually do on saturdays. But most of the day I played with my cousins on roblox or with the toys. Then me and my older cousin watched half of Dune while our parents played a card game. On...

Today my mom was a little sick so I decided to go to Tae Kwon Do tomorrow instead of today. I did my week seven requirements from home. Today me and my friend also biked over to a pizza store to have a slice. After coming back I ate dinner and went to bed.

Today I finally got to do stuff today. And I just got requirements done and met with my mentor. I'm really tired. I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe.

No school! There was no school today since it was Presidents’ Day and I’m pretty glad since I wanted another day of rest. Basically what I did today was rest but I also worked out with my dad and  I tried running up this large hill and I was pleased with my time. I went to the 5:15 class like usual to help assist and I attended the 6:00 class. Also I had a mentee session. I did a bunch of poomsaes and it was pretty fun. Now I’m back at home watching family feud.

Happy Monday! Jovi went to King Tiger Lake Norman for camp while he was off from school today while I worked and got my bb requirements done. Took Jovi to his guitar lesson. I went to KT and got in a mentee session, a class assistance, and a class leadership credit. Hope everyone had a great day!

Today I went to my house to get my homework done that I went to play basketball with friends. After that I did a Bigfoot escape room with my family and then we came home and ate dinner. Now I am watching a show

Hello King Tiger! Today was great day to start off with even though I hate Mondays. Monday's are so miserable. School was okay, I guess. I took a quiz and still don't know what I got. I went to tennis tryouts and got "selected"(turns out, everyone who was in tryouts got selected, so there was no selection process). I just finished homework and I am about to finish my requirements. I hope I could finish my journals fast so that I could go to testing.

We were all pretty tired yesterday so we didn't my journal typed in so I'm just adding it in todays journal! I am excited that I am almost done with my 50 journals!! Sunday 2/18: Today I woke up at 6:55 and grabbed the switch and started playing it.  Then I had breakfast and got ready for church.  I went to Sunday school and then into the nursery with my mom but there was not kids so we went into the service, I fell asleep during the sermon. 😴  Next we went home and had lunch then I did some black belt stuff and passed out on the floor.  Finally I woke up and did the last thing I had to do for the day.  Then mom made me dinner before she left to pick up Anthony from church.  Then I finally went back to bed! Monday 2/19 NO SCHOOL TODAY!!!...

Today I got to sleep in due to President's Day and a day off of school. I was glad I got to rest to continue fighting a cold my Dad shared with me last week.  I ate breakfast, worked on requirements and then got to play some video games. I then went outside and played during the afternoon with friends in the neighborhood.  Today was a great Monday. I'm looking forward to class tomorrow evening with Grand Master Lee. 

Today I woke up and decided I need to run 5 mile today to get ahead! the first mile was not the best I did try to run it very fast but it was kinda alright. After I finished that mile I had to take a break for like 5 minutes but then got back to it then finished another mile then another then another then my last one which felt great to be done with. I hope the rest of my day goes by smooth and ive already done my poomsae and self defense from yesterday. Hope you all have a great day!

Hi King Tiger Family. Happy President's Day!!! I know that the origin of President's days was actually to celebrate the accomplishments of George Washington. Crazy that it has been around so long. There are so many figures at varying levels in government that have made dramatic differences in the shape of this country. I say we use this day to remember all those who have served at different levels in government to help drive this country. Although the President's role is extremely important and should be recognized, there are so many nameless officials and staff members that help run this country that is truly takes a "village" to make things happen. I appreciate everyone that works so diligently for our freedom and rights. This is truly the most incredible country to live in. I am not saying we don't have our problems, but I am proud to be an American. I hope...

Today I woke up and ate breakfast. After that we repainted our master bathroom and then I played with my friends for 1hr. Then I did requirements and went shopping.

Hello King Tiger Family. It was a good day today. Started the day with Church. Then had a bunch of things to do around the house, including requirements for TKD. Got almost everything done I was hoping to do today. Still feel like the day went real quick. Now I am sitting and writing this. I still need to figure out the coming weeks to make sure we are good on all our classes and requirements. I need to work on another essay. Maybe this coming weekend. Take care.

Hello:(, today I woke up very tired, and my dad was down stairs watching church, so I slept a little bit longer.  After that I rested for so long, and then my dad had a really bad stomach cramp so he went to go to CVS to get something to calm it down.  Then we came home and we rested, but then he randomly started to breath really hard, then he asked me to get him some Pepto Bismol.  His stomach was really bad so he had a hard time breathing so I called my nana to tell her what was going on, and she said she was going to come over.  When she came over it got worse, so my dad told her to call 911, and they came and took him to the hospital, so we went there, and he was getting fluids put in him.  So we figured...

A boy rides his bike through the streets of his neighborhood. He turns upon a dark street and looks at the mysterious lane, longing to be home. As the boy rides along a slightly brighter street now, he is shocked when he realizes why the street has turned so bright. He looks to his left and sees a gargantuan monster! With headlights!? But wait…It’s hapkido 4??? Matthew jolts up in bed, sweating, waking up from his nap before Friday black belt class. He is frightened by his dream but decides to do something about it. When he gets to class, he asks his instructor if they could practice hapkido that night. Black belts, stay aware of testing, and use your mentor power-ups to help you! Goodnight

Today I woke up and was pretty tired since I was up late last night. I then went to church. I was in the kids and was running media. I spent some of my down time at church learning and watching videos about our sound board. After almost 2 years of running media, I am just now learning how to do everything on the sound board. I then came home, did some homework, and some requirements. I then hung out with my girlfriend. Afterwards I showered and now I am here. 

Today, I came back from a trip but I have tomorrow to rest cuz there's no school. Other than that I was just asleep in the car for most of the trip so when I got home I did some homework and some other stuff.

Today I went to my friends house to practice our poomsaes and self defense. We did hapkido two I didn't know my own strength and accidently through my friend on the ground a little too hard. When we were doing hapkido three she wanted revenge and shoved her fist into my face when she punched me and it still hurts.

today, my mom's car had to get fixed. then after that was done, I went to a friend's house to practice poomsae and self-defense. then, me and my mom got food, came home, and I built a Lego set. now I'm going to sleep because I feel exhausted for some reason.

Today I got to sleep in and my parents got home from their trip this morning. Some of my friends who are on the cycle came over and we went over all the belts and just hung out for two hours. I took a nap and now i’m going to go back to sleep because i’m exhausted.

It’s been a wild weekend so far, but today was pretty lazy. Didn’t do much today and basically stayed home and got a few requirements done. I might go to bed early to continue the lazy flow…….

today I woke up early to go to the soccer field with my friend and his dad. After that I went home and did some homework. Then I went to my friends house. We hustled his mom to have a sleepover and it worked. Lol. Now I am hanging with him.

Happy Sunday. Low key day. Went to Poomsae class this morning and then had a mentor session. I got a bunch of bb requirements done when I got home. Had plenty of family time today. Hope everyone had a great Sunday!

Hello king tiger family. Today was a great Sunday. I woke up, went to church, played video games and watched tv, went to the grocery store and did requirements. After that I did 2 essays and my mom typed it for me (by telling her what to type) then finished requirements and relaxed for the rest of the night. Right now I am about hop into the eat dinner and enjoy the rest of the night so have a good night and see you tomorrow if you go to the burg.

Today is Sunday, I hung out with my friend outside for a while. I am going to eat now and then to requirements. Nothing else to write about.

I was sick all of last week and so i have a lot to make up this week. Today I did some stuff today. I finally finished the body of my new skill! I'm learning to crochet but I'm keeping what I'm making a mystery. I still got to make a tail and ears to make but that's besides the point. I did a mile (Finally), and I did my poomsaes and now I'm going to go eat dinner but I'm doing more later! I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe!

 Hello again! Today I woke up and did a little of my requirements and then got ready for poomsae class. We just did a bunch of stances and also did 3 poomsaes. Then when I got home I ate some delicious pizza and I waited until it was 5 so then I could go on a jog with my sister. I jogged around 1-2 miles on a trail and it was pretty muddy. Now im back home and I finished up doing my other requirements so good night!

This week has been an adjustment. I have to be more intentional with planning my day due to my work schedule being inconsistent. I have been doing my requirements but as tough as I would usually go. I have to find a good balance. On workdays, get down however I need to. On days I don't work, challenge myself and maybe get extra minutes done. But the nice thing about taking it slow this week, it I feel pretty fresh and recover. Today I went running and I felt pretty good.  There still things I haven't learned and things I need to improve.  I made a plan for work this week and I hope to follow it. 

Hello King Tiger! I couldn't do my journal for the past few days because I went to sleep at midnight on those days. I just woke up at 9: 15 today and I am going to write a few essays and do the requirements. I think me and my family are going to someone's house today and celebrate something. Other than that, I have no plans today except study for a competition that I don't know when is going to occur( I don't know a lot of things, to be honest). Hope everyone is preparing themselves for the tests!!

today I was at taekwondo for almost my entire day. I had sparring this morning, then did requirements, and had leadership. afterwards me and my mom got food, came home, and relaxed.

Today I woke up and went to black belt class. We went through all the Poomsaes, which was good since I needed work on blocks and stances. I then help with the family class. I always enjoy teaching. Then we went to Master Shins school for sparring, but we didn't check to make sure they actually had class. Of course, they didn't. We then drove home and I got some school work done. My dad and I then went to the stick seminar, which again was amazing. I really enjoyed it, especially the knife stuff. I love working on more practical techniques like the ones we practiced. Then I came home and went for a run with my dad. Followed by showering and eating. Afterwards I painted some Warhammer 40K minis. I finished a few of my soldiers and started working on one of my tanks. I then updated Fortnite and...

Today started with black belt class and work. It went by pretty quick and then I went home and had lunch. The day was pretty boring, got all my stuff done then chilled.

I took my classes today, such as the sparring class and helping out with the junior tigers. Then I had the greatest idea to coke home, lie down for an hour, and then work on my English 111 essay and some physics work. In reality, I’ve only woken up about 10 minutes ago, and it is currently 11:18 PM. Maybe not the greatest idea to lie down, but it was a good “nap” (slumber, really). 

Today was the day for my Hot Chocolate 5k.  I finished in 45:07.  During the week, I usually finish in thirty-two to thirty three minutes.  I was very happy to finish.  After the first mile and a half we received chocolate morsels and water.  There were lots of sneaky inclines.  The scenery of the city was, well, new...Charlotte built a whole new city within the city!  After the run, we received a metal, two cans of Bush's Baked Beans, water, electrolyte drinks and a "Mug Bowl" that included a cup of rich hot chocolate in the middle surrounded by cookies, marshmallows, rice krispy treats, nuts, melted chocolate and a banana.  There was a variety of whipped topping flavors.  Oh, we also received a nice warm hoodie to run in.  It was pretty windy when we started, no T-shirts for us!  We took pictures, jumped to the sound of the DJ and...

Today was better than yesterday, and I'm sad I missed class today, but I did do my skill and start my essay to make up for it. I hope everyone had a good day and that it wasn't too bad like I've been the past week. I'll be back at everything hopefully tomorrow and be able to catch up with everything because now I'm a week behind, and that's not good. I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe.

Today I got up early and my mom drove me to sparring and then I was at classes until four o’clock today which made me very tired so I took a nap and then did my requirements. I got a boost of energy which made me tired again i’m not sure how and now i’m going to go to sleep. 

Hello, today my dad had some work issues so I couldn't make it to black belt class sadly:(.  But my dad went to the chiropractor, and after that I ran 2 miles.  Then I came home and did some homework, after that I took a small nap then went to run 2 more miles.  When I finished my dad and I went to get Rita's Italian Ice.  When I got home I rested again then did my requirements, after that I ate dinner then did some of my book reading.  After that I ran 1 mile, and rested again and now I am about to do my last mile!       Good Night!

Happy Saturday. Woke up with a migraine this morning. I have meds for it, but unfortunately it didn't have me ready in time for the black belt class this morning. I was able to go on and have a pretty normal day after that. Got 1.5 miles and my bb cycle stuff in. Took Jovi to his piano lesson. We went to eat at Maddios this evening. Did tons of laundry. Today is my dad's birthday. He and my mom live in WV so I wasn't able to see him, but we facetimed him and sent him a present. Hope everyone had a great day! 

today was my friends birthday. We went to Birkdale and had a blast.

This morning I woke up to a headache. I had sparring that morning but I had to leave early because of my headache. I went home and got some rest. When I woke up I was feeling better so I went to go hang out with my neighbor. We went fishing and I caught three little baby bass and he caught a three pound bass.

This morning I woke up before mom and watched a little tv, then had breakfast.  Then I headed to BB class, we worked on all poomsaes this morning Master Evins was really focusing on stances, preps, and punches to the correct place.  After class I worked on some of my black belt stuff at KT  then we went home I finished a couple more requirements then had leftover pizza for lunch.  I watched Shrek.  After that I wrote 2 essays, my white belt challenge and my book essay.  I also studied my test (mom said I did pretty well but need to study a little more) and ran a mile.  Then I did my study guide for a math test I have Wednesday on multiplying fractions and whole numbers (I only got the last question wrong because I made a silly mistake).  Then I FINALLY got my switch back after 2...

Today I woke up to go to black belt class. We zoomed in with Master Evans. We did poomsae's for the class. After class me and my dad got BoJangles. Then we came home ate breakfast and I took a nap for a few hours. 

Hello King Tiger Family. Today was a good day. I got up and went to sparring class. I helped out in junior and senior tigers. I led exercises in senior tigers and worked with a new high yellow belt on her self defense. I did a mentor session with my mentee and another high red belt joined us and I got to help both of them with red belt self defense. We had leadership and I worked on the leadership poomsae. I came back home and my grandma came over to visit. I showed her some games on my playstation. We had lunch and I finished up my requirements a couple hours later. I am about to relax and play roblox before I have to work on my essays. I agreed to work on 2 today and finish my last one next week.

Hi to all! I forgot to write my journal yesterday since I fell asleep as soon as I got home from taekwondo, but I had a awesome black belt weekday and weekend class. When I woke up this morning I did some requirements and got everything done early so I can relax all day today. This morning we had black belt class through zoom with Master Evins and we worked on poomsaes and stances. Later I jogged/walked 2 miles in the treadmills and now i am at home relaxing!

Ive woke up and ive went to black belt class but it was not my best class then I went to my schools track field to pratice my mile and I ran my fastest mile of 7:49 greatfully and now am going back home and finishing one of my essays then doing my bb requirements tonight and just not doing much today.

We had a half day on Wednesday for valentines day which was good, and I got some time with my friends,.and then some with my girlfriend.

today I had a Spanish and chemistry test. I felt like I did relatively good on them. then I came home, showered, and left for sparring at Harrisburg. after sparring, we had blackbelt class then we all ate. then I came home and did homework.

I went to sparring and did a better job than usual.  After sparring, I attended Black Belt class, had a mentoring session and dinner.  Declan asked me how I felt about the Black Belt cycle.  I told him that there are quite a lot of requirements to complete.  I said I was worried that I would forget my movements or not be able to kick high enough.   I also told him that I was concerned about falling incorrectly.  Declan advised me to practice rolls and falls on the thick black mat first and then use the thinner blue mat later.  Declan has "been here before" and always gives one something to ponder upon.  Thank you Declan!

Today was my birthday and I appreciate all the warm wishes I received. I really need to thank Peyton for encouraging me to do my back walk over, I was finally able to get it! After I did it one time, it got easier. Went to a food truck festival. Tried to many things, it was great.

Good Evening King Tiger Family. Today was a great day. We had our awards ceremony at school today and I got A honor roll and multiple awards. I expected some of the awards but not all. I took pictures with my friends and then we ended the day normal. I didn't go to after school today and came home so I could get ready for my black belt class. Class was went pretty well. We practiced O chang, koryo, and bocho specials. We got tips on on how to make our poomsaes better and what we should be working on. We had dinner after class and I brought the cookies I baked for my new skill for everyone. We played tiger ball after we ate and it was a lot of fun. I came home and finished up my requirements and played City Skylines. I think its the best game and...

today i has e learning and didnt have to go school so i finished all my work at 12. i then did my requirements and practiced my weapons forms. i then finished my essay and now i am going to bed

Hi Guys! Tonight I went to a concert aka Jovi's little gig at Summit Coffee. He did amazing and I was impressed to see someone my age play all those chords and switch so quickly. When he was done playing I went outside because my school friend Ari was there and we played "football". Jovi and Martin joined in as well. It was fun but the game broke into a fool around thing so we just ended up running around and laughing which is just as entertaining. See you tomorrow at black belt class. I hope yall day was amazing just like mine. Hugs and kicks!

Today I woke up and got my history done. After history I went to run. I ran two miles but I wasn't tired so I ran three miles but then I was exhausted so I ran a little more. After running I went to TKD and ate baked ziti. 

I washed my hair last night but woke up and it did not look good but i fixed it and went to school wearing my new leggings. my hoodie was supposed to come today but didn’t which made me kind of upset but it’s just a hoodie so it’s ok. I had a good day at school and I think a boy in my math class likes me i’m not sure. I had to go to sparring and then a black belt class after school but now i’m very tired. 

TGIF! Ran 2.5 miles after I got Jovi to school. Worked and got bb requirements done. Went to black belt class tonight. Afterwards, Jovi played guitar at Summit Coffee. A couple of families from taekwondo came to watch which was awesome. Hope everyone had a great day!

Hello, today I had band today, but we had no air conditioning so we went to the football field to play instead.  After school I did my homework then I got dressed then went to class, during the Black Belt class we worked on hapkido 1,2,3,4,5.  When I got home my dad ordered McDonald's, but they got my order wrong so we had to go there and order a new one.  Then I did my requirements.         Good Night!

Today I toured Bailey middle school. I loved seeing all the different class rooms. After school I took a nap when I got home. Then I went to class and we did some hapkido. After class we got TENDERS for dinner. Then I took a shower then typed this. Night YALL!

I woke up and got ready for school. We didn't walk today because Anthony had to be at school early. After school I went to KT I ran 2 miles and did my black belt stuff. Then I did black belt class. Then I went home had pizza and went to bed. 

Hello!! I am currently on the route for my black belt class. Today is the third day of my white belt week! I sadly couldn’t go on Wednesday to help out with testing because my sister usually has a tutoring class somewhere else, and Thursday I had an after school event I had paid for.  The event was really fun! It was a trivia night in the same style as a Jeopardy game. There were a bunch of teams, and although my team didn’t win anything, during an individual round my friend won!! It was also fun arguing over the correct answer and then learning all of our answers were wrong.  I’m sorry I didn’t journal those two days, I got busy with college and physics.

Today I had an AP Gov test which I got a 100 on which I'm pretty proud about. After that I got home did some homework and did my requirements  

today I had e-learning and I finish my school very early. After that, me and my friend decided to have a double sleepover Birthday. Now I am at the soccer field then getting chipotle.

We had online classes today. I did a tiny bit of requirements and then played some video games with my brother and friends. It’s a pretty good day…..

Today I woke up and skipped requirements. I woke up the most tired I have been in a few weeks. I made it through today. My 4th block class was very unproductive, but I hung out with my friends all class. After school I had PT; then I went to Tae Kwon Do. It was pretty good, talked to Logan Luna a bunch, which I always enjoy. Then I came home, did some requirements, and then went for a Peloton ride. Afterwards, I showered and now I am here. 

Today was decent. Worked at the dojang and had sparring class. It's getting closer to my grad party which will be fun. Tomorrow us my second shift working at 9 round.

Hello! At school I had AIG today and we did some podcasting. Then I had science Olympiad/club after school and we worked on weather. At home, I went out with my dad and I ran one mile and also did some requirements. Later, I went to assist for the 6 pm class and I did sparring right after and it was pretty fun. That basically wraps things up so goodnight!

Today I didn't feel good so I stayed home from school and I just chilled out and rest for the day and then nursery I had to go to the doctors to test for strep flu and Covid and I have a sore throat and I chilled out until I had to go to dinner because it was my mothers birthday and we went to the cottages

Today I went to school as usual, after leaving, I went to Tae Kwon Do to do sparring. I did terribly and got kicked a lot. I am very worn out now. Not much else to journal about today.

Today I woke up and got ready for school.  Next I was at school, it was a normal day  so we did blocks.  Then I got to KT and did my black belt stuff and ran a mile.  I played some with my friends then I had sparring.  After sparring we finally went home and had dinner and got ready for bed.

Hello guys! As you can't tell, because I didn't give out any indicators, I'm feeling happy. I've finished all of my school assignments for the week and I'm feeling pretty good about the black belt cycle. Also, I took sparring class tonight and sparring class always makes me feel happy or jumpy afterwards. Sparring gets you hopped up, revved up. Oh yea, Happy Valentine's everyone. Today I was practicing my kicks by throwing a soccer ball up and then kicking it in mid-air. I was trying to spice things up and make practicing more fun. Maybe probably I got that idea from Master Knight during Jr Instructor camp. Not kicking the ball but making practice fun. While I was practicing, I was thinking about all of the good things that have happened in my recent life. Like getting good grades, getting caught up with my miles, things like that. If you're...

Yesterdy was a pretty decent Valentines Day. Today at school we were just preparing for a good, long 4 day weekend that unfortunatley starts back up with a science test the Tuesday we come back (because High School just loves to make life difficult). Today was not my best performance in class today but I think I am slowly returning to how my skill used to be in class, just need to stretch a bit more. I had some really successful sparring matches in class today as well. I really want another Friday Night Fights soon (maybe this journal can be taken as a request?).............

I had a vascular access class for work today. Reviewing the proper way to put an IV in someone. It's an intimidating task that a lot of nurses ask the IV team to do. But you have to learn and try. Not every hospital has an IV team, and you can always wait. I have successfully got an IV on 3/5 patients.   I used today as a big clean up day. I was supposed to have a hair appointment today, but it got cancelled. I tried not to be rude in my responses, but the stylist was taking a long time to response to rescheduling. But she was nice enough to give me discount when I rebook with her. Still working on getting into the swing of balancing work, black belt cycle, and general life.

Harper and hudson have been sick so they didn’t go to school but i had to. I had a good day and my hoodie comes in the mail tommorow. it was my moms birthday today so we went to dinner and when we got home i showered and washed my hair and i am ready for school tomorrow.

Hello King Tiger Family. Today was a good day. I woke up and completed some requirements in the morning and then went to school. School was normal. I had P.E and was able to run laps and finish my exercise requirements because the other 5th grade classes ruined P.E for us because they were not listening. We were only allowed to to run laps and read a book for P.E. My teacher allowed me to work on my exercises instead of reading. My mom picked me up early from afterschool early because I had to get a haircut. When I came home I finished my requirements and practiced stick forms...well what I could remember. I just finished dinner and now I'm about to get ready for bed.

Hello, today I went to school, and had art, it was pretty fun, because we were drawing faces (mine looked very creepy).  After school I did my homework, and some of my requirements.  Then I went to class, today I took the 6:00 class, and I took sparring class.  After that I went home and did the rest of my requirements.   Good Night!

Today I went to class early, met with my mentee and then did some stuff before that. I still have a stuffed nose and I'm tired. I hope everyone had a great day and stay safe.

Today I woke up and had 2 tests at school and I got a 100 on both. When I got h9me I did requirements and then l cleaned my room.

Today I woke up and built a LEGO set that I got for Valentines day. Then I got ready for school. After school I went to TKD to help out with testing and do some requirements for my black belt cycle. 

today went fairly well, I had a math test which wasn't that exciting. then in government we worked on our papers and took some notes. then I came home and got ready to help with the testings in Harrisburg. then I did requirements, got dinner, and came home. now I'm going to do homework and build a new Lego set.

Today I had another normal day at school. I had a test in science and I got 100!! I have been working on my essays, physical requirements and running. After school I went to sparring class. It was a good day. 

Happy Thursday! Mostly a lowkey day today. Got in 2.5 miles and my bb requirements. Got some work done. Went to sparring class. Spent some time with my guys. Hope everyone had a great day. 

today I focused on school, so I had no homework when I got home. I got my miles done in PE and had an amazing time during basketball. When I got home, I played video games in ate. Tomorrow I have e-learning and no work to do because this whole week I did all of it.  

Today was really easy. I went to school early which was a surprise and went to math. The work was pretty easy so I blew past it. In science we had an another assignment which I also finished quickly. In Spanish we had a test which I just finished in time. In social studies we did yet another assignment which i also finished. And lastly in Ela I literally had nothing to do because I had finished everything. So my teacher made me run up and down the halls printing stuff for her then she made me clean stuff out for her so that’s what i did the entire time but i was fine with it because i didn’t have to learn. After school i did my requirements then went to help out with senior tiger testing. There were not that many people. Now testing just ended and im going to...

Happy Valentines Day!  I ran this morning in preparation for the Hot Chocolate Run.  I didn't remember one of the hills we were running up, but my friend reminded me that I am usually talking when we approach the hill and may not have noticed it on the previous days run  : )   ; ).  I went to the school to work on my requirements and later arrived home to focus on Oh Chang and High Green Belt Self-Defense.

Today was pretty good. I had the day off from work so I got caught up on some chores then hung out with someone well call a friend. Had some chic FIL a for dinner. It was a good day

Happy Valentine's Day! I have a tradition of decorating Jovi's bedroom door with hearts where I write reasons why I love him on them. I did that last night so that it would be there when he woke up. I'll leave it up through February. Had some small gifts for both he and Joe. Jovi had a half day of school today. I had to balance a meeting this afternoon with spending time with him. Got my bb requirements done in the morning before I picked up Jovi from school. This evening, I went to taekwondo and got in a session with my mentee as well as a class assistance and leadership credit. Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day!

Today was pretty boring at school. When I got home I messaged my friend happy birthday and did some requirements after that I did homework from 4:15 until 10:33.

Hi King Tiger Family, Happy Valentine's Day. Pretty good day. Got up, did normal routine and went to work. Work was normal and productive, however dealing with some performance issues with people. Always interesting. I did go to church for Men's Bible Study. Great message on making time for scripture each day. I can usually make time at time, but mornings is sometimes difficult if there are extra things to do, but I need to work to make the time. I got home, took care of somethings and now writing this. I need to do some requirements but not sure I am going to get to them. We will see. I will get it done. Take care. 

today was pretty good. it was a half day at school and my Spanish test got cancelled. we did almost no schoolwork all day! then I came home and relaxed a bit before showering and leaving to help with the junior tigers testing. afterwards, me and my friends went to dinner at hawthorns before I decided to come home. now I plan to just try and get some rest to prepare for my math test tomorrow.

Today I had a lockdown at school. I was sitting in class then my science teacher started running down the hall saying "Lock all the doors!" and the teacher told us to get to the back of the class. I hid in the corner of the room next to a book shelf and started praying until I couldn't think of anything else. But then this loud and annoying girl starts to run around and scream and it gets worse because I heard and felt knocking on the door because I was on the wall. I started to text my mom "I love you" but then I hear my teacher say "oh false alarm a teacher put in the wrong code". It should of said violently sick but instead it said violent attacks and the teachers assumed that meant a school threat so that was weird.

Hello King Tiger Family. Today was an early release day at school so we only did our Black history project presentations. I did amazing on my speech and feel like I had one of the best board. After presentations we went music and then lunch. I went to after school and ran 2 miles and spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing with my friends. My mom picked me up and told me that we were having black belt practice for candidates so we went home to pick up my uniform and head to King Tiger. I completed my exercises and worked on short sticks. I also had a mentor session and worked on staff form and more short stick forms. Me and my mom stopped by Chickfila for dinner and then came home. I worked on self defense and rolls and finished the rest of my requirements for the day. ...

Today was Valentine’s Day. It was a normal day but instead of groups we had a valentines party. We got to chill and I got to eat 3 pieces of candy. At TKD I helped with junior Tiger belt testing. Then we all went down to Hawthorns for pizza.
