My first post here

Well it's 9 days and counting until my black belt test at taekwondo. I AM ready, but scared out of my mind at the same time. Not really about the technical aspects... or the memorization. It's that it's really an endurance test for 3 hours. I also have come to loathe the spotlight, and there's a ton of instructors and friends and family there. That's very disconcerting. But I'm sure I'll do fine. Just have to go a few times next week. I was going to go to breaking class last night, but decided not to at the last minute after a particularly rough requirements class at 6pm. That's what happens when Grandmaster decides to teach a class! :)

Have to bone up on the prearranged from brown to high red. That's the last stuff to memorize... well REmemorize. I did know it once upon a time. It's just to jog it out of my long-term memory to somewhere I can access it.

Well all that is on the back burner tonight. Going to my brother in law's birthday party on happy Halloween. My husband and I should make a great Sid and Nancy!!

Later taters.
