   Testing
I didn't test myself, I don't feel ready enough to test for my second degree black belt. So I was just there to help out and judge. Fun! During the board breaks I settled down and got ready to watch the kids break their boards... that is... until Master Groff told ME to help hold the boards... *gulp*

I had no idea how to hold it!!

Mike helped me out and I held as best I could... BUT MAN!!! Those little kids have NO AIM!!! My poor fingers. I got Master Groff laughing. At one point he gave my head a pat and said: "Zig-zag, you're the only person I know that can have their fingers kicked between a board and not stop smiling..."

"I like pain... somewhat..."

"I can see that." Really, it wasn't that bad... my fingers are fine. I just felt like I was tempting fate a bit too much... I was just thinking recently how it had been nearly 8 months since I've broken a toe or finger. *kisses fingers* Glad they're all still here! I broke them enough to last a life time.

Mike, another black belt, was SOOOO GOOD at testing!!!! He did a one handed 360 spinning back-kick. Meaning he spun around, kicked, and broke a board with the holder only holding it with one hand. Trust me... THAT'S A REALLLLLY HARD KICK!! He broke it on his second try and the other half of the board almost smacked me in the head... good thing I had moved eariler...

Then Mike and Master Groff spared. It was so much fun to watch. Master Groff was just toying with Mike half the time and would go to kick him really hard in the head. STOP. Then lightly touch his head and wiggle his toes on Mike's forehead. *snicker* Mike did get some REALLY GREAT shots in!! I love watching the stronger guys up at Taekwondo spar. It's so exciting watching how fast they can kick and how good they are!!!
