Hope and I woke up at 6:15 and changed into our red shirt and black shorts. We went to breakfast and ate. We sat and talked for about 30 minutes before we headed to the gym. We had our own individual workouts from Dawn this time.

I did my workout and then Dawn gave me my drink.
Me: is the gym going to be empty after us?
Dawn: yeah it should be, why?
Me: I need to stretch and practice a couple things
Dawn: alright that's fine.
The gym emptied out and I cleared the floor. I put on music and started my stretches. Once I finished those I out on my old playlist that had all of my solo dance songs. The first song was The Special Two by Missy Higgins, then Stranger by Secondhand Serenade, Make You Feel My Love by Adele, Secrets by One Republic, and the irony of the last song being How to Save a Life by The Fray.
Once the last song finished Hope who had been waiting spoke up.
Hope: I knew you could dance but that was incredible
Me: I was the best in my class before I chose cheer and soccer.
Hope: I can see it. Well its lunch time so come on.
I put my shirt and shoes back on and followed Hope to lunch. We got our food and sat with the gals. We talked and ate. After lunch we had about an hour before our next session, so Hope and I went to our room. I checked emails but didn't have any that I needed to reply to. I got up and walked around while I checked Instagram.
Hope: can you stop?
Me: stop what
Hope: walking, your stressing me out
Me: oh sorry.
I stopped and sat. I switched to Twitter shortly after
Hope: okay really
Me: what now
Hope: your shaking your leg which is shaking my desk. Can you just stop moving?
Me: I guess not, well I'm going to find Kelley
Hope: thank you.
I left and knocked on Kelley's and Tobin's door.
Kelley: Baby Horse what's up?
Me: Hope kicked me out because I can't stop moving
Kelley: she's done that to me too
Me: hey Tobs do you think they brought our longboards?
Tobin: yeah they did last time
Me: want to go ride after dinner?
Tobin: yeah definitely
We played cards and then went to load the bus. Our first stop was to get our credentials and then we went to the field we were training at. We put our cleats on and warmed up. Training wad grueling and we were all sweating buckets. Once we finished we went back to the hotel and had dinner.
Tobin: hey Ash wanna go ride with me and Baby Horse?
Ash: yeah when are we leaving?
Me: meet back in the lobby in 10?
Tobin: sure
We got up and went to our own rooms. I changed out of my US gear and put on regular clothes. I put on my converse and watch and headed out.
Me: hey Hope I'm leaving
Hope: be careful please
Me: of course, I will see you later
The 3 of us met in the lobby and Tobin had our boards. We left and rode around for a while. After about an hour and a half we headed back. It was dark when we walked in. After we put our boards in we went to our rooms. I showered and then go ready for bed. I texted Brad for a while and then got in Hope's bed. Hope set her book down and shut off the light.
Hope: have a good ride?
Me: yeah. When do you think the media will find out?
Hope: hopefully they won't but realistically they always find a way
Me: yeah I know, goodnight Hope.
Hope: goodnight Savannah.
