I messed up on one of my Forms, Long 1. I got lost for a second, but managed to figure out where I was and picked up from there with minimal stopage (anyone else ever have that problem?).


Oh yeah! I was so nervous at my BB test, I bowed at the beginning of my kata but I got distracted and forgot. So I bowed again. Then in the middle of my kata, I totally left out a step/guard movement. I knew that kata very well. It was just my nervousness messing me up. I still passed since that was the only kata I messed up. Congratulations on passing!

It's amazing how nervousness makes you think too much isn't it? I've noticed, once I know a form, the only time I mess up is when I lose focus and start thinking.

Thanks again for the support everyone!

I'll post pictures of the promotion after it's all said and done Friday!
