Hey there! Haha, here's my 3rd blog and everything has been going pretty swell thanks for asking!

So my public pitch was due a few days ago.. And i honestly think it went pretty well. Before I recorded, I kept stuttering when pronouncing my words. I guess I was kind of nervous. But when I did the real deal, it actually wasn't that bad! I didn't receive any suggestions but I don't think I should change anything.. yet. I think the most urgent for me to work on right now is to check in with my mentor because I haven't talked to him about the Genius Project in a while. It'll be a great way to catch up!

One of my friends is learning a new language.. Japanese! She has a partner and they're both REALLY excited about this! I think what impressed me with their project so far is not really about how they're learning.. Rather, their teamwork! They struggled a few times but they both have been able to work together. Also, its like, a new language to them so it's amazing as to how fast they're learning. But then again, they're both pretty smart so of course it'll be super easy for them.

Well that's it for today, Thanks!!!

Hey! So here's my second blog and I'm going to talk about going a little in depth as to what my project is. ;  

Well first thing first, this project connects with my passion because my passion, my life is all about taekwondo. I spend most of my time at taekwondo teaching everyone the way of taekwondo and how it encourages us to do better in our everyday life. Also, taekwondo is self-defense and the other teachers and I teach everyone self defense techniques. Hopefully by the end of the project, I can get my classmates and anyone else who is interested, to understand martial arts (taekwondo) a little more and maybe teach a self-defense technique.

I think the sources that's going to help me is my mentor. I'm not struggling with anything much.. I am just trying to make sure I get to finish the blogs on time. I think I am most excited to present or teach what I have learned throughout these months and throughout this project.

Well that's it for now .. I'll keep you updated! Thanks!!
