its over.
14 years of bars, beam, floor, and vault is all done.
never am i ever going to step foot in a gym
never am i ever going to feel the adrenaline rush before a first tumbling pass, or hear the cheers of my team as i dance by them, or watch my teammates do their own routines, or be able to tumble, swing on bars, FLIP ON THE TUMBLETRACK.
I bet this seems like a regular "oh this is the end of a very important stage in your life" gripe.
guess again. I have really never known anything else than gymnastics. I dont know how im going to be able to go to college and not have practice during the winter. Im going to miss the camaraderie, the fun, the judging, the tumbling, the jokes, the moves... EVERYTHING
This has been my life for as long as i can remember. it was my life. It makes no sense cuz i feel like all of a sudden, its over.
NHS gymnasties, I could never ask for better teammates. I laugh my hardest when i'm with you guys. (i know none of you will read this, but still). Im not sure we are supposed to have as much fun as we do during our practices. Maybe its that theres only 18 of us, but i wanna think its that we're all a bunch of great kids who share a love of gymnastics and goofing off.
Corinne, you diving into instead of over the panel mat was the most hysterical thing i have ever seen. Molly, i think you may be the founder of the NHS rumor mill. Rachel, how are the butts rating tonight? Tessa, those vault runways are easy to get stuck in, huh? Becca, i think we can agree that we are both lame :-P. Steph, there are no words... Ari and Theresa, you two are the most ladylike girls i have ever seen. Michelle, you could win a spit-bubble contest. Chelsea is the Place to be!
Ohhh man... there are so many memories. I love you all.
Damn am i going to miss this :(
