Here we had just finished the first form and were waiting to move on to the next one. The judge was writing down our numbers, that's why we are all facing the side.
Demonstrating one of the forms. The uniform is not all that flattering, but it is surprisingly comfortable. I actually just got the red belt on Saturday because we don't actually have to wear them in class, so the master never bothered to give us belts. We needed them for the test, so we got them the day before. I didn't know how to tie it properly, so Master had to dress me. 
Getting ready to spar. The equipment is not very comfortable and it makes it harder to move, but you can kick people and it doesn't hurt. Unfortunately, I kicked Sara in the elbow, where there is no padding, and really hurt my foot. Oh well. It was fun anyway.
After our test. We were all giddy with excitement.This is one of the forms we had to show. There are eight forms required to get your black belt. We had to show three of them. We knew that we would have to do number eight, but the other two we found out just before we had to show them. I wanted to do numbers six and seven. I really didn't want to do numbers four and five. We got out there and found out that we were doing four, five, and eight. I was not very happy about that. I think I did okay, even if those ones were not my best.
I was going to put on more, but it won't work right now. I will put on more later.

That is so cool. And kicking things is good. Really, you can't go wrong with kicking things. We need a picture of you kicking someone in the head.

So do you get your black belt now, or do you have to wait?
I hate waiting.
Very impressive. You really need a picture of you kicking someone to hang up at the front of your class while you are interning. A little intimidation goes a long way.

I have to wait to find out if I passed. Probably two weeks.
Very cool, Robin!! Looks like it was fun. Too bad you have to wait to find out. Waiting is never fun!!
I'm certain you got your belt. If you felt you did your best and worked hard at it I'm certain you got it. Its awesome and I'm certain you are now a TBA blackbelt.
Super! (I actually wrote supper the first time. that's what happens when you type one handed with a baby on your lap). Now we can all learn to kick things. As Joyce says "kicking things is cool"é
Very cool! Good job Robin. Robert wants to know if you can beat him up now. I think actions speak louder than words so you can kick his butt when you come home.
