Yep, a big week for Andy....Kim & I were very proud the other day when he got his letter of acceptance from Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ. You could even tell that Andy--normally very reserved when it comes to showing emotion of any kind--was very excited about the news. We were especially excited that the letter also included the news that Andy had also been approved for over $22,000 in scholarship money! That's good for a little more than half--which should let you know just how much it costs to send your kid to college these days. AAAAAAAAHHHH!!
Then today, Andy tested for his lst degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. I'm happy and proud to announce that.....he passed!! Yep, his sister has to bow to him again in class, which I'm sure annoys her to no end. Andy told us the testing was very difficult, including an endurance run of approximately 5 miles, 50 push-ups (never Andy's strong point), sparring, and finally the opportunity to show his knowledge of the form and a chance to show a self defense technique that each student creates himself. It was very hard work and Andy passed with flying colors. Pretty good week for Andy!!!
I went to Blockbuster and rented a whole slew of movies...so I'm going to hope that I have some movie reviews coming up in the next few days....I haven't done any in like forever....much to my dismay, and I know you just live for that stuff.
Later,
Jeff
