I'm not ready.

Assalamualaikum.

I was suddenly being told that my 2nd Dan grading will be held on 31st of December when there are only 2 weeks left. And I'm not ready. Ohh, Dan is like the grade of your black belt. I'm curently a 1st Dan (the lowest) and my instructor is a 4th Dan.

To be honest, I didn't want to take the exam. Well, the reason is obvious. But, since my friends are taking it, I don't want to be left behind.

There are lots of things I haven't mastered or at least know the right way to do it. Jumping back-kick which would be used for breaking one of the plank, the 3rd pattern, self-defense, grabbing etc etc. And the worst part is that sparring would be 2 versus 1 which pretty much equals to death for me.

I really wish that I'll be able to break the planks. Last two years, two hot dudes held the planks for me which kinda fires me up a bit. Can I wish for deja vu please? :D

Anyhow, I'll give it my best shot to pass the exam or die trying. There are still two weeks to practice right? :)

Let's hope I can be like this soon.

Yours truly,
