For those of you that might have been wondering -- not only did Robin survive her third degree black belt test, she kicked *major* ass.

I shot videos. They will be uploaded as soon as I can stop running long enough to set up an account on YouTube. They're seriously awesome viewing, if you can ignore me screaming like a lunatic in the background. ;)

The best part is that the entire evening was a perfect object lesson in setting goals, working for them and achieving them. Robin is currently one of the highest ranked (if not possibly *the* highest ranked) women in the United States in this discipline (modification of Choi Kwang Do).

Not too shabby for a modern-day high school sophomore. *g*

Oh, and the seminar the school is hosting that she tested at involves people from all over the world. Robin has developed a little crush on a red-haired seventeen year old Scotsman. Direct quote from last night: "and I got to meet a really cute Scottish boy, and wow I think that may be the girliest sounding thing I've ever said."

Hee!

Sorry we couldn't make it - Dad was here, and by the time he left, the testing was almost over. Our apologies. :(

YES!!! And if you have to crush, a ginger-headed Scot is a good way to go. ;)

Can I just say, for the record, that ROBIN ROCKS... and that ROBIN'S MOM IS THE COOLEST MOM ON EARTH!

Hey, I married a Scots-German man... it's a wonderful match. And he still grins at my girl-crushes, so hey, all ain't bad.
