I've been a red belt for ever LOL (red is one rank below black .... high red is next). Well, 7 months to be exact hehehehe. I'm in no rush though.

I'm quoting myself again ..... hehehehehe. I finally tested for high red in TKD (1st gup/kyu) this saturday. I won't know if I passed till the 23rd, though :(

I am a 9th gup in Hapchidado. We start at 10 and count down to black belt. At some point if I have the time I'd like to train in "pure" Aikido and Kendo for more experience.

Why does it take so long to decide if you passed?

O Sensei said that everyone has a defined sphere of strength and if you can get them outside that sphere then their strength will disappear. I say, EXPAND YOUR SPHERE!

I actually don't know. But the 23rd is when my graduation is. If I don't get a phone call telling me I failed, then I go. So far I haven't gotten a phone call. I take that as a good sign :)
