I may not test for my orange belt on the 6^th. Mike Sensei has given me an out since I had a about a month and half less practice on the orange syllabus than others and to be honest I'm just not feeling all that confident. I have most of it in muscle memory, so if I can figure out what I'm supposed to be doing I can but the association between the words and the moves are just not strong in my mind. Especially when I am expected to be able to perform them all solo as either uke (recieving the technique) or nage (defending with the technique). I'll still get promoted before the summer is over but it will be like the yellow belt test: I'll be doing it solo (or maybe with 1 or 2 others) and it will be that much harder. But probably easier if I'm more confident about what I'm doing. I'll decide for sure this Monday at the end of practice but chances are low that I won't back out for now.
