Card games

I wonder how many kids play trading card games. I at know at least five people that play card games including me. Now adays if you walk in a store and look in the card section.There are TONS of really weird card games such as Card Jitsu,Pokemon,(it has quite a big section)Magic the Gathering, World of Warcraft,(I play that card game)and tons of other card games I cant even spell.I wonder what other crazy card games people will come up with in the future!

Testing

Last Saturday I tested for my blue belt it is the sixth belt and I only have four belts until black belt. It was quite exciting! My instructor told me I needed to write an essay on self control.I ended up two days before testing.Here it is:
Self Control
There are seven tenants of taekwondo they are: Honor, Humility, self-control, indomitable spirit, courtesy, integrity, and perseverance. All these tenants are extremely important to follow in our daily lives.
Self control is a very important tenant. The definition of self control is: restraint of ones actions, emotions or desires. To me Self Control means that you are able to restrain yourself from doing things out of desire or want. Just because you really want to do something doesn’t mean you do it.
Taekwondo has helped me with my self control quite a bit. Before taekwondo I would eat doughnuts, cream filled bagels, or any other pastries at any chance I would get. Now that I have practiced my self-control I don’t eat as many sweets as I had. An example is: when I deliberately turned down a cream cheese Danish even though I really, really wanted one. There are also two other ways I demonstrated self control they are, restraint of my actions or the restraint of my emotions. Another way that I demonstrated self control is when I controlled my desire to yell when my sister was pestering me
So, if it wasn’t for Taekwondo I really don’t know how well I would be controlling my desires, actions, or emotions. So I encourage others to become martial artists because it helped me a lot with my self control!

I thought it sounded goofy but it was still fine the way it was!

Pottery

Not too long ago I went to a pottery class and made two things a leaf plate and a ladybug bank.It took 3 steps to make sure that my ladybug bank actuly look like a bug and not a colorfull glop of clay.First I have to make my ladybug the right shape and bake it in the kilm.Second I need to paint my ladybug.Third I need to put a coat of clear stuff that makes the bug smooth.Finally I have to put it in the kilm once more. When it comes out my lady bug is finished!





PS:pictures are coming soon!
