7/22

hi guys, today i went to the gym and did my run again today. me and my sister played basketball outside for a for about an hour and then i finished up the rest of my requirements. I had black belt class today and it was pretty fun. we worked our staff forms a lot but i'm really struggling with staff form number 2 (i cant helicopter over my head for the life of me). at least now i know what i have to work on. i'm gonna have to get my sparring gear ready for sparring class on friday but i think i'll do that tomorrow. i'm gonna be honest i'm not really looking forward to sparring class mostly because i haven't gone in forever. i think once i start warming up to it and going more regularly everything will be fine. i'm just trying to stay consistent and take everything one step at a time. i guess every class is another chance to get a little better, so we'll see how it goes. overall, pretty good day even though I still have a lot to work on, i'm happy with the progress i've been making!!
