So, not too long ago, I received by Blue Belt in Taekwondo!!!!! :D AHHH!! :D I am really happy about this since I wanted to achieve this rank before starting college(I also got my Driver's License! YAY!), plus it's such an awesome rank! Only four more tests til Black Belt.....
I've also started taking up Kendo in college, so that will be neat! Nothing beats TKD, though!
Here are some pictures of my Blue Belt and my Certificate.

11 facts
1: I'm currently in college at the moment!
2: Started taking Kendo in college(sword fighting martial art created in Japan)!! :D They have classes in one of the clubs I joined.
3: I get REALLY tired of people being all inappropriate in front of me. Why can't they obsess over something cool like, you know, fandoms or politics? Much more interesting.
4: Recently finished the series "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood" which was AMAZING!! :D Loved it!
5: In college, I can sometimes tell, that I'm an innocent, naive homeschooler; yet, I feel more mature than some people too(and I know homeschooler stuff, hehehehe XD).
6: I got an awesome letter from my friend Arda!! :D
7: I do like college, but I miss being homeschooled.... a lot!
8: I will work out at the gym in college so I can build muscle and get to 120 pounds at least(though I'd like to have a bit more).
9: I hate when girls my height say they're short, since 5'5'' isn't short(4'6 is short; everything 5'0 to 5'11 is average).
10: The other day, when I was having to hear all that inappropriate grossness, I watched Star Wars: Spoof Wars and listened to Owl City to make me feel better.
11: One of my goals is to be able to beat up a football player....>:D

ReplyDeleteI love the mountains, too! And Thalia is a great name :D
Thank you!! :D Blue belt is pretty close to black belt(red stripe, red belt, black stripe, and black belt- and the degrees that come with that) so that's pretty exciting. Cool! :D. Thanks! :)
DeleteThanks! :) Yes, it definitely is! :)
CONGRATULATIONS!! XD Four to go? That's great!!
ReplyDeleteSigh... blue belt was the last belt I got in Karate. I got only three more tests till black belt, but eh, I got injured and was forced to quit.
I'm in an Aikido & Taekwondo club now, though, but my sensei's... kinda biased towards my prettier friends. I miss my Karate senseis...
Thank you!! :D I'm pretty excited(I can't wait to get back to it! :) )
DeleteSorry about that :(
Sorry your sensei is biased like that :( I hate when people judge others on how they look.
