My 1st dobok and other delights

Tonight was my first training session with my first TKD dobok (the word uniform in Korean). My trainer and classmates use Korean numbers to count our kicks and punches. So, today my mom helped me find a one minute youtube video to help me learn my Korean numbers. I am well on my way! My trainer told me today that I am doing very well. My mom made a short video of my progress tonight and she will upload that later.

All is well in my world! The weather turned cloudy, cooler, and rainy this week so we have been reading more and watching some scary movies in our spare time. I love scary movies. We watched the Corpse Bride today and Grimm Brothers last night. I played with a friend all day on Monday; he was out of school for Columbus Day.

One day this week I am going to draw some pictures and have my mom make a book with the pictures. That was my idea. She even suggested we could do that one day with photographs I take. I like being able to come up with my own to dos based on my passions.

I started playing/learning World of Warcraft last week. My trial period ended today and my mom has to go buy me the discs at Best Buy or some place like that so I can play it again. But in the meantime I am playing my Dad's computer games: Age of Empires, Conquerors. I also have a new Gamecube Naruto fighting game I like to play.

My brother and I have been building a lot of cool ships with our new Legos. We got Spongebob Legos for Camden's birthday last week, and we have been making our own creations with our existing Legos. My mom and dad are impressed with all our designs. I think my mom was a little annoyed that our Spongebob Legos got mixed up with all our other Legos, until she saw our new creations. Hours of fun, I tell you. I'll have to photograph our designs sometime.

May the force be with you!
