I am very proud that I have got my second degree black belt. I have worked hard for a long time and I am glad to be rewarded with my 2nd degree black belt. I would like to thank all of the instructors that helped me achieve my 2nd degree black belt, Ms.Shim, Ilya, Rob,etc. I would also like to thank all of my friends that helped me get here. I thank them for telling me my mistakes and then helping me fix them.

I understand that along with receiving my 2nd degree black belt comes a lot of responsibility. I understand that now I have to be a role model to the younger colored belts. I have to help them with their mistakes and tell them how they should fix them. Along with getting my 2nd degree I had to understand that persevering was really important. Even if I was not doing so well I knew not to give up and keep on trying. After a large amount of dedication and hard work I was rewarded with my 2nd degree black belt.
