This morning I was ready to face a horrible day. It was the first day of cheer practice, starting off the next eleven months of summer camp, football games, basketball games, and competitions. I have grown quite tired of being a part of the team, and greatly considered quitting this year. However, I decided to try out, though I'm not quite sure exactly what possessed me to do so.
I've regretted it ever since I made the squad and summer practices drew closer. So, this morning I woke up cranky and ready to bitch all through morning and after school practice. Then, something else turned my entire day around. My coach, who I've been begging to let me fly all season, finally let me. She placed me in a stunt group and let me be the flyer. I tried not to act TOO excited, but I was. At first I was slightly terrified, but then the girls did a wonderful job, and now I trust them.
But I feel horrible. Flyers are usually these tiny, five foot, ninety-pound girls who are easy to throw and catch. I am far from that size. I am five foot seven and weigh about one hundred and ten pounds. These girls basing me are shorter than me, but they proved to be troopers. Either way, I felt really bad that they had been assigned to lift me.
So, what I decided to do, was bake them a cake! So as soon as practice was over, I went to the store, bought some cake mix and icing and went home to bake. They aren't aware of it yet, but I plan to give it to them tomorrow morning in first period as a little "thank you" for not dropping me or getting frustrated with my lack of experience. Hopefully, they like it.
Now that I've finally had a good day, hopefully I can get a good night's sleep. I have a lot to do tomorrow and a lot of homework and projects to work on this weekend.
I hope everyone else had a wonderful day as well. Sleep well everyone. :]
