Gymnastics!
So i think u all kno that i do gymnastics….and if u don’t well I LUVV GYMNASTICS! anyway, so i’ll tell u a little about how i started. When i was about 4 my best friend(we were in maine at the time) Ruth decided 2 start taking classes over @ the elementary school. And so I-wanting 2 be just like her-decided 2 do it 2. we did classes for about a year then stopped (idk y!!!!). BUT that’s ahb-viously not where the story ends. After we had been in NH for a couple years, i decided to start gymnastics again. This was probly around the time i met taylor. anyway, i did rec classes from 3rd-5th grade which were really fun! But then i got invited 2 be on a special team that competes. So for 6th and 7th grade i’ve been doing that. When i did the rec classes, i took the summers off and we only had classes once a week. But now with team, we do it all year round and 2 or 3 practices a week. 3 hrs of gymnastics @ a time! As you can see, it got a BIT harder! And we started doing LOTS of strength conditioning (which BTW KILLS!). It got to be so much i had 2 quit swim team during the summer because i had so much gymnastics. But i don’t really mind cuz gymnastics is my life! It is SO fun to just flip and flip. When im mad i go and do some “hard-core”(inside joke) gymnastics to get my anger out. i do handstands and cartwheels down the street. I do aerials wenever we go outside, as most of you hav probly seen. It’s taken me a long way to get where i am and gymnastics makes me soooooooo happy!!!!!!!! I luv getting a new skill or going through conditioning without being sore the next day. i’ve sacrifieced a lot for gymnastics. It costs about $3,000 a year! And believe me, im not that rich! Gymnastics has pushed me to physical Iimits and sumtimes i feel like im about to die, but i keep going! Just felt like letting out all my feelings about gymnastics here so thanks for reading throught this whole long thing with me going on and on. i’ll stop now! I <3 u!
