The Karate Kid

When I was in 4th grade, I remember always watching them old martial arts films and always like to reenact the moves they did in the scene it was exciting for me to watch as it was to do. I remember telling my parents that I wanted to be a martial artists or karate kid and for my 9th birthday they enrolled me into a  karate class. It was so exciting I was very nervous, because I wanted to be good at what I was learning and didn't want to slow the class down as the taught me karate. At first I was doing well i thought I was doing great at what I was doing, but really I was just like any younger white belt slow and sloppy. I had no balance and I really just didn't get into when I younger and it wasn't until 8th grade I understood what made class so fun. When I began I always thought to be the best, which being rude thinking you were the best in the class and having enemies which was no fun at all, but as soon as it hit me that I was not the best I decided to be more friendly and having fun conversations with people in my class, and at moments before a match get a little cocky just to tease one another and it was fun and I enjoyed it a lot. After all that trouble was clear and out of the way I decided to work on the most important part of martial arts getting a black belt it was so important to me to earn this I was ready and prepared to earn it but I had a little while before I earned that. I decided to train and work hard on my flexibility and lose a little weight because i was a bit big and it would have been hard for me if I was big but I started running and before I knew I lost 20 pounds and am about 2 feet from doing a full stretch and it is amazing. When it came to senior project that is where I got the idea of becoming a black belt because I knew that would be amazing and I knew that would be a great stretch for me and that I would dedicated to this, and I earned the black belt fair and square and presented my project to the judges and they seem impressed by it. I'm glad to have earned this belt, it had been a long journey and I think it was a great end for me.
