Last Monday night after class, Din Thomas promoted me to blue belt! It was completely unexpected, which made it all the more exciting.
The last I had heard was that Master Din would hold promotion nights twice a year. I had to miss the last promotional night because of family obligations, so I was resigned to at least another six months of green. Which is fine, because I don't always feel worthy of blue anyway.
So it's an exciting time. Now I have the blue, I'd better start living up to it!
