Problem: Not enough money to cheer on an open team and not enough time to cheer for UB.
I'm already incredibly sad about not being able to cheer next year. If it's this bad now, I can only imagine it getting worse once I'm in the gym while everyone else is at practice or while I'm in the stands while everybody else is cheering. It sounds dramatic, but this sport has taken over my life for eight years... I'm not sure if I know how to function without it.
Looking at a completely empty planner makes me realize how cheerleading gave me something to look forward to. Yeah, it was a lot of work, but I got to cheer at the Q, the Pittsburgh Steelers stadium, Rogers Centre in Toronto. Sometimes the UB stadium would fill up with 14,000 fans. Now, it seems like the only thing I have to look forward to is Christmas.
Yuck.
