It seems that every week brings  a new challenge, with this week the fight being lung…

My Living heroes:

My mother is one of my living heroes. She was the one that first found a place to go to Tae Kwon Do. Although at times she may seem strict, she is still kind and loving and her strictness is for my own good.

My father is also one of my number one living heroes because I can't rate either of my parents. My dad…
