I mentioned those to my mom before she went shopping (I think I'd seen you or someone mention them in another thread), but she said when she compared the prices that there wasn't that much of a difference. *shrug* Mom's a bargain shopper & coupon-clipper, so I'm assuming she looked at everything.
TKD testing
The gold belt did not test because he did not have his own uniform and tried to borrow one from someone else the night before the test. (He has an aikido class right before TKD, so he's been allowed to stay in his aikido uniform for class. But he was told months ago to buy a TKD uniform, with club patches, for testing. He didn't do it.) He did find someone who let him borrow one, though it was at least 1 size too small, maybe 2. He showed up in the borrowed uniform, at which point he got reamed out by the head instructor, who then turned him over to the examiner. The examiner sent him back to sit down.
At the end of the test, I did my free form. (Someone named it for me last night:
Slashing Streams. I couldn't think of anything else, so I went with it.) And it was acceptable. The examiner said I did three things well in making my free form: 1) included traditional elements, 2) included non-traditional elements, and 3) included stuff that I still haven't mastered. Awesome. So now I can move on with my 2nd degree curriculum.
