So you can stop reading this now... I should probably lj cut it, but whatever...
I went to gymnastics today for the first time in what seemed like forever (but was really only like 3 weeks), and I actually started swinging bars again. My fly aways were actually about where they were when I left, even though I was scared the first time, and if my grips wernt dead I probably would have done better (Im getting new ones which Im really excited about) So Im on bars.. looking around the gym and realized: - I miss Nate joking around the whole practice, and being the weirdo that he is.. - I miss Jessica yelling at us (even though I didnt like it then, I knew it would be worth it).. - I miss hearing everyones floor music playing (even though the level 6 music got boring after the 5th time played).. - I miss chalk being everywhere; in your hair, eyes, all over your leo.. - I miss wearing grips.. - I miss the little girls watching us do simple things, but them thinking we were amazing.. - I miss actually doing stuff, and the parents and other kids commenting about how good we are.. - I miss waiting in line to use the drinking fountain.. - I miss ripping.. - I miss conditioning, then feeling like I couldnt walk out to the car after practice.. - I miss standing in those lines (even though I made fun of them all the time).. - I miss the folders that we put stickers in depending on what we did.. - I miss trying to tumble on the tumble track, which is more like a floor.. - I miss having to repeat alll Jess and Nate''s corrections.. - I miss having to make eye contact.. - I miss 'snack'.. - I miss exibition.. - I miss making up 'creative' things.. - I miss Clay and Bently.. - I miss old coaches.. - I miss the quote of the day.. - I miss feeling rebelious and ocasionaly cheating.. - I miss getting stars on the wall for scores over 9.0's at meets.. - I miss getting metals at comps... - I miss wearing our warm-ups.. - I miss our comp. leos.. - I miss going over how our hair has to be before the first comp. of the season.. - I miss falling off beam.. - I miss staying in hotels for comps... - I miss being so strong.. - I miss being able to come home and eat anything I want, cause I knew I would work it off the next day at practice.. - I miss the talk at the end of practice about how everything went that day.. - I miss doing rehab when I was hurt.. - I miss bleeding after climbing rope.. - I miss being nervous before every event at comps, but then after I start, I relax.. - I miss fitness testing.. - I miss oversplits.. - I miss watching each others routines, then commenting on them.. - I miss going into the bathroom to wash our hands, and knowing people that were there as we ran by in our leos.. - I miss practicing outside on nice days.. - I miss buying new leos.. -I miss going on team outtings.. - I miss comps... - I miss trying new things.. - I miss getting new skills.. - I miss working basics.. - I miss open gyms.. - I miss that class thing we had Saturdays after practice.. - I miss morning practices (warming up with pajamas on..) .. - I miss stepping into the gym and forgetting about all teh shit that was happening.. -I miss Nate and Jessica.. - I miss my gurlies.. <3
