In february, KO KID and I qualified from Tae Kwon Do National Championships after we both placed in our first tournament. Nationals was held in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida this year and we had to check in on July 1st. So we headed out in our giant van on Monday, slept in North Carolina that night, and left for Orlando Tuesday.
On Wednesday, we went to SeaWorld. It was pretty fun, but I managed to lose my back pack that had about $100 and my iPod. Luckily, this was found at the Lost and Found, but soon after that I lost my day old sun glasses on a roller coaster. Kind of a frustrating day :(
We finally got to Ft. Lauderdale on Thursday (the 1st of July) and checked in. We had forms competition the following morning. Neither me nor Ko Kid placed. The way they did forms was they had two people do their form at the same time, and five judges would vote on who they thought did best. I won my first round, and in the second, four out of five judges voted for me, but they got my competitor and my name confused, and moved him on instead of me. We didn't find out what happened until it was to late.
Saturday morning was sparring competition. Ko Kid took first and I took a silver. 27 out of 30 competitors on our team (East Coast Martial Arts) medaled and we all took home the first place trophy.
It was a fun and tiring week and I don't think I described it very well but I'm tired and if you don't like it well... I don't know, just get a chalupa at Taco Bell.
I hate waking up and realizing I live with other people.
