Well, since there seems to be an entire forum of this board set up for it, I figured I may as well hop on the bandwagon and introduce myself.
I'm 17. Live in NJ but I'm close enough to Philadelphia that I can say (wishfully thinking) that I live there. Been training in TKD for about 7 years, got my bb about 3 years ago. Just this week quit at my former school and started training at a new school. They're letting me keep my rank, but if I want to test for 2nd dan, first I'll have to test in their system for my black belt first. The new school (which I guess is my current school, now, but it's kinda hard to convince myself of that after 7 years) is about 60/40 TKD and Hapkido.
My parents aren't big on the fact I didn't outgrow my fixation on martial arts. Not feminine enough for my dad and my mom's just nervous about me getting hurt. I, on the other hand, can't imagine life *without* training.
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself.
