Tae Kwon Do

I take part in a local Tae Kwon Do class (a martial art,) and I have very recently graded. Tae Kwon Do was once a Korean form of self-defense, but quickly turned into a sport. Tae Kwon Do, means "the crushing of hands and feet." To grade you must learn a "taoigeach" or pattern to show off your skills. You must also do certain attacks. As you proceed, you get different coloured belts. You start with white (linked with innocence), and proceed to black (linked with space, and overwhelmingness.) At the moment, I am a green belt.

My New Brother

I have a new brother, and his name is Ethan. He is two weeks old and very cute. He is quite big and very strong. He was born with quite a lot of hair and was 9lbs 15 oz when he was born. This photograph was taken at home in ireland when he was a week old.

Ethan is quite a quiet baby and doesnt cry that much. He makes little cute noises all the time and sounds like a baby crocodile.

My hobbies

I have a reasonable amount of collecters cards, I collect Yu-gi-oh and Pokemon cards. I have collected them since I was five! I have put in some pictures of my rarest cards below. I also have a Nintendo DS and a PS2. I support Chelsea and love playing football. I play attacking midfielder. I play for a local team called the Raptors. We won the final this year, C'MON THE RAPTORS!!!
