Green Belt!

mamadebI had evaluations tonight, and even though I don't really deserve it (seriously. There are orange belt things I need to learn, and they know it, too), I got my green belt. I'll take a couple of private lessons to firm things up, I think.
I'll probably be more excited when I get the physical belt. Meanwhile, I'll start tying my hair back with a green scrunchie. (If I'd gotten the stripes I'd expected, I'd have used two - one green, one orange.).
And now my husband can't joke about me wearing Princeton colors.
And. I get to *flip* people! Yay!

I'm going to have to ask my rabbi, but I'm sure he'll give me permission.

Date: 2003-12-08 09:58 am (UTC)I really feel that I deserved stripes this time.
Anyway, once you get stripes, you can get the next belt at any point that your master decides you're ready for it. In my case, that was at the end of October, which was a month and a half ago. Which is fast.
And why I'm feeling weird, and not very excited yet.
