This is a drawing of me that I drew a while back. My hair is commonly in my face and I always wear a mask as well. I wear glasses but not often so I put them on my head. I have my hand making a peace sign because I do that in a lot of pictures.

This is just something I wanted to share so I would like to share a quote. The quote is “Nothing is hard it’s just unfamiliar” I don’t remember where I heard this quote but I really like it because it just tells me that I could do anything if I wanted to share.

A short story from my life

My favorite memory was not that long ago but it was when I got to my 2nd dan black belt. So starting from when I was 5 or 6 I started Tae Kwon Do. When my mom had told me and being so young I had asked what Tae kwon do was and my mom had just told me it was going to teach me how to fight, me being a scared kid I had asked my mom not to do it but she would not falter on her choice so a few days later me and my little brother and I had went to my first class. It was at a place called Fast Kick and I started in the class called little lions and I had enjoyed it and had talked so much about it to my family. At the age of 9 close to 10 I had gone over to advanced class where I could start working to a black belt. When I had gone to my first testing to get my yellow belt I was very scary when I saw we have to break wood that was thicker than the one we broke in little lions the good new is I passed and it was like this till It was time to test for black belt I had went to the special classes for practicing running the mile, what I do for bored breaks, self defense and a lot more. The testing was broken into two parts. The first part was on a Friday we did running the mile, a lot of exercise, and tested on some basics things we should know. The next day on Saturday I was so sore from the night before. When I got there I was a little early so I practiced a bit. When it was time to start we did a normal warm up, self defense, sparring, two on one sparring and bored breaking. I would to highlight I had never done two on one sparring at the time, In some cases I had to be one of two attackers and I was testing for me black belt so I had to be the defender at least once, it was not as hard as I thought it was so I went the rest of test just fine but still a little sore from the day before and when testing was over I was so tired but was also happy. My parents picked me and congratulated me. Weeks later I found out I had passed and had gotten my black belt. Some were in June. I had gotten black belt with the other who tested with me so that told me they passed as well which was good news to me. I had continued Tae Kwon Do till I moved to California so in that time I had stopped Tae Kwon Do after getting my 2nd dan black belt. I plan to start other activities like get a teacher for violin, learn to swim, and archery or other things I don’t know for sure I will have to see.
