Journal #53 -03/07/2026 Lalitha
Today was a normal Saturday. I woke up and went to TKD for Weekend BBC — we worked on multiple kicks and a few self‑defenses. Once I got home, I spent most of the time working on essays and studying for the test while my dad took the car for its yearly check. I helped my mom with her work and went outside for a light jog. When my dad came back, we ate dinner and then went out again for a walk.
I did my requirements when we got home. While helping my parents, I somehow managed to drop a heavy fan on my foot… so now it’s bruised, lol. We were going to play badminton, but the weather and timing weren’t on our side. After that, I came home and went straight to bed. Overall normal day.
Hope everyone’s doing well, and good luck with the rest of the cycle. ⟭⟬ Lalitha Sree Damarla⁷
