Life in a Kaitlyn's Eyes

May 28, 2015

So, I'm pretty sure a lot has gone on in the last few.... Days? Weeks? I'm not really sure but I'm too lazy to check.

So this whole week, well Monday through Thursday, I had CHEER TRYOUTS!

Yay, and not yay. I stressed out majorly the entire time. Mostly cause the stupid dance was way too fast like, I don't know, 8 8-counts in like 15 seconds. Yeah, waaaayyyyyy to hard. and then a cheer and a chant, but those weren't to difficult.

So, the first real judging day was Wednesday. That was tumbling, jumps and stunts. Personally I think my tumbling is on point. My jumps aren't the highest, but I think my technique is good. But stunts is a whole new ball game.

Backspotting is like a super power. My stunt even fell, we could only put up one, it was just an extension/full. But my flyer who had been my flyer for the past 2 years, rec., DIDN'T TOUCH THE FLOOR. Cause my body was in the way.

One thing really blew me for a loop was that my private tumbling teacher was the judge. The judge. Both days. So, she judged my tumbling and I was absolutely terrified cause she's my tumbling coach she knows if I can do better.

But the last day, Thursday, we had to get there at like 3:00. School ends at 1:50 for me, that's not a lot of time. I also didn't get home til 9:00. No one should have to spend that much more time in a learning environment.

The worst part was someones mom bought pizza's and SHE ONLY BOUGHT 3! There were over 50 of us and she saved one for the judges and coaches! NO WOMAN NO! But of course it was the snobby, stupid person that's stretched thin over all of her activities.

But I had my phone charger, headphones, water and some nut mix I grabbed out of a cabinet. So, yeah, my salute to cheer tryouts:

I survived the crash.

Survived the burn.

Survived the worst, yeah baby, but I learned.

Survived the lies.

Survived the blues.

Almost killed me, but I survived the truth.

And when you wrote me off like I was doomed.

I survived you.

If you can name this song, with out googling the lyrics, your boss.

So then they finally let us know if we made the team and what team by giving us goodie bags. If you made the team you had Nike socks with a ribbon around them telling you what team. So, I can no longer say I don't own a pair.

YeahYeah, that's the most exciting think that had happened since last time.

Oh, mom my just bought tickets for my first concert. I know, I'm 15 I should have been to at least one concert but noooo. We're going to a Frankie Ballard and Jarrod Niemann concert near my house with Teresa and my aunt. I'm not telling you when cause then you could find out where I live. So no.

Tomorrow we have a lock-in at my school for cheerleading so we 'can bond'. But everyone's just going to be on their phones so. If anyone wants to message me tomorrow feel free.

I don't know what else to say and I really want to update tonight so I'm gonna stop now.

Bye!

Love ya!
