Today was a half day.
This day in History:
- 1620 - The Mayflower departs Plymouth, England
- 1916 - Tanks are used for the first time in battle, at the Battle of the Somme

Today was indeed a half day, every class was about 25 minutes long. After school Steve came over and we worked on our rocket project for physics. After that went to karate. We did some interesting knife hand techniques again, and footwork stuff again. Sensei is going to the shotokan world championships in Japan for a week and a half, in fact a girl from our dojo is competing in the kids' tournament, I wish I had been that good at her age, I could have been, I guess I just lacked the dedication. Speaking of which, the kyu exam was moved to October the first. I'm kinda nervous about that. Someone send me a new random picture, I've had this one for far too long. Star Wars book count: 7 down, 22 to go.
