Black Belt (Poom) Grading

Well, today I had my Poom grading. Since I'm not 16 years old yet, I can't get black belt. I had to break one half inch and two one inch boards. I twisted my knuckles punching the board and had to use elbow or the half-inch board. But when I broke the board, I broke my sweetheart's heart by letting her see me clutch my knuckles in pain. I broke the other two boards easily with a backthrust and a side-kick. I am sure that I can get my Poom now. Good luck to all you other people there who has to go for a black belt grading.
