I'm quitting

I told my mom today that I want to quit going to tae kwon do. I have a lot of other things I am interested in, and I think the dark nights of winter are making me just want to relax at night time. My mom was not too surprised. I feel good that I can be honest with my mom and dad about my needs and wishes. I was supposed to go to class tonight, but we called the instructor and cancelled. My mom felt bad since she already told the teacher we were coming and just paid for the class a few weeks ago. At least it is an inexpensive class and I got a lot out of the experience.

May the force be with you,
Holden

My new pets on WoW

Hi all! I have a video coming one of these days. My mom took a video of me playing World of Warcraft. I love my character and my pets. I am a hunter, named Taladria. My pets are a spider and an owl I named Screech. They are huge and really cool! I put one in a stable while I have the other pet with me. I love doing duels with other WoW players and going up levels. I am learning about fishing, herbalism, and doing quests. My mom helps me a lot, but I can do much by myself. I like helping other players when they are in a tight spot.

I'm certain I am the luckiest boy on the block to be able to play WoW with my mom and dad by my side when I need help. It took me a month to decide on a character and a world I enjoy in WoW. But now that I have found my place I am moving up levels and having such a blast. I'm so glad my mom listened to all the people who told us about this game. I am not addicted, but sure having fun when I am playing or watching my mom. She has a character as well. She was told by a smart person to make her own character, so she could learn the game to help me. It is a blast!

Now that we have pets it seems like the rest will be a cinch! My mom WAS a warrior last week, and couldn't get a pet on WoW. She found out Warlocks and Hunters can get pets though. But I am sure we'll make lots of other characters down the road. But for now my mom and I love our hunter characters because we have bows and pets. My mom's pet is a huge scorpion.

May the knight favor you,
Holden

P.S. I still take taekwondo and love it!
