Tonight's practice with the Gladiators went way better this time than last week. Only thing I still struggle with is going into the other smaller room to do the conditioning and flexibility training. Mom did encourage and told me I was doing it because it's a part of what it means to be a Gladiator. Just it's so hard and it hurts and just so difficult. I don't like it. Not at all. I will finish this blog entry to say that I LOVE doing the stunt demonstrations for Gladiators!! Was so cool to do more advanced flying stunts!! I was nervous because I've never done those before but mom says it'll get more so with time!! Now to get prepped for my Thursday practice with Level 3 Warriors!!

Tonight was my second night of practicing with Level 3 Warriors. I think it went pretty well for the most part. I got to practice for most of it as a flyer and then the alternate flyer in my stunt group got to practice as a flyer and she accidentally fell on me while I was being her front spot. That I did not like nor enjoy but I got over it. I know as we all continue to practice and work hard as a team we'll get better and stronger!
Tonight was my first night practicing with Level 4 Guardians! It was very different and much harder than I expected or used to. I only have 3 more Tuesday practices left to prove myself that I can crosscompete on both Level 3 and Level 4. Here's to hoping that I do much better next Tuesday but I'm told that even if I am not able to crosscompete that I will still be allowed to practice with Level 4!!! So I'm going to be golden either way!!! Will admit though that it was a blast to not only practice but to also tumble with Level 4 AND our new Level 5 team!!! I'm not a fan of the conditioning and flexibility session but mom tells me that tough cookies I'm doing it and that is what is required of me if I want to be on Level 4. I was a bit upset that I couldn't stunt with Level 4 ,but I did get to be used as an example for some of the flyer stunts which was pretty cool! However, I know I need to prove myself to my coach and I'm basically starting at the bottom again. I just really want to impress and make my coach proud, you know? I finally have a coach that believes me in me like my mom does and I don't want to disappoint either of them. Thanks for following my journey!! Taking a break from my cheer adventures!! I'm published in It Girl Model Magazine!!! This is still a HUGE thing for me concerning my pageant stuff!!! Make sure you grab yourself a copy before they're gone!!!
Tonight was my first practicing on the Level 3 team and let me tell you!! IT WAS AMAZING!!! Coach does things a lot different with the Level 3 team than I am used to but mom says it'll help build me into a better and stronger cheerleader. As of right now, I'm one of the flyers on Level 3 but like with anything that can change. I was very nervous when I was stunting with my new stunt group BUT I know with time I'll learn to trust that they will not drop me. Coach keeps mentioning how she really needs me more on her Level 3 team but she is still promising that I still get my 4 weeks to prove myself to hopefully be allowed on Level 4 as a cross competitor. But mom did tell me that coach has a compromise that I may like if I can't cross compete, not sure what kind of a compromise it is but has to be a good one!!! I am so excited for next Tuesday when I go to practice for Level 4!! I am just so excited!!! Mom has me back at it, working even harder. She told me this is just a small picture of what I'll be expected to do if I do end up cross competing or somehow making it on just Level 4. I really don't like not being able to watch tv when I first get home and being told that tv will have to happen AFTER I do my homework AND my practices at home but if that's what I need to do in order to get what I'm really wanting then I don't have a choice. It's going to be hard but as my mom always says to me, "Nothing worth having comes easy". Either way, I'm learning new drills which I find really hard but mom also says that they'll get easier as I keep doing them everyday. I hope she's right but right now I'm not so sure. It's official I'm on Wilon's Level 3 team!! I am a Warrior!!! Now mom says that's awesome and a huge deal! Me though? I'm still hoping to get on the Level 4! I want to be a Gladiator! And my coach is going to let me have the chance to practice with Level 4 starting next week and I'll have 4 weeks to prove myself before she makes up her mind of me just sticking with Level 3 or if I can cross compete so I can compete on Level 3 and Level 4. I hope I can prove it to my coach! I really do!! AHH!!!! In a few short hours I will be at tryouts performing the cheer dance, tumbling moves, jumps and stunts for my coach to judge us and figure out which level our skills are best for. I really hope I get on level 4!! I really want level 4!! So bad!!! Please wish me luck!!! I am so nervous and excited!!! My mom has been working me hard this afternoon before I had to go do my homework but I don't mind that much since I know she's trying to help me achieve my dream for getting on Level 4!! Please wish me all the good lucks and good vibes!!! Tomorrow is it!! It's the day!!! And I know I'm ready, now just hoping my coach will see that I'm ready and that I can do this!! |
