So this is what it's like to be physically active

Right now, I am contemplating my whining factor. Well, anyone that knows me moderately well may pick up on the fact that if something is sore or if I have an ache of some sort you will most likely know about it. And I am taking this opportunity to cry about how sore my ass is, my armpits (believe it or not), and pretty much every muscle in my body is from stupid ridiculous cheer! As well I have a stomach ache.

Well that felt good to whine about, I think I'm going to get ready for bed though as I type this I am thinking about a warm comfortable mattress calling me. I get to sleep in an hour later than this morning today because today I went out for breakfast with Dafoe! It was yummy.

My thumb is broken

Tonight was the first cheer practice that I attended, that was dubbed the Legends Senior Summer Team. I was so excited to see the girls from the Winter team, I was excited to backspot some more and really show these new girls who were apparently not intimidating, I was excited to do some jumps because i'd improved so much since last September.

But NO! NO NO NO NO NO! I get there, the girls seem all very young and so I assumed I would get to finally seem for once like I knew what I was doing. I thought maybe the coaches would teach me how to base. Which they didn't. Instead, I backspotted ridiculously basic stunts for an hour. Nearly broke my thumb because my group was a bunch of boys who had a lot of strength but no technique. I got really tired of this one girl who giggled when the coach told me I could just backspot the whole time. Then, we got to work out. That was the only thing that changed my mind from quitting.

I don't know why I enjoy working out so much, but I really did. It hurt incredibly because I pulled my quad muscle yesterday, but I still felt very successful when I left in a hot sweaty mess.

So, I hate the girls, I hate my group. And the worst part is, the preps for the jumps (Which is like the funky arm motions you do to get height in your jumps)  was completely different! And Anne, the vice coach or whoever she is from last year, the woman who used to  tell my group how awesome I was at backspotting, kept critizing my jumps. I understand that it was constructive and she wasn't being rude in the slightest, but I was so frusterated with myself because I didn't really know anyone around me and I couldn't bring my legs up near my face, I couldn't do much. And Anne kept looking at me, and even told me I needed to work on my 'abs'. All I need to work on is my flexibility. It's sad how NOT flexible I am. When I was young I was like an elastic band, and I wish I had kept up stretching because it would be have been a piece of cake to do a toe touch. But now, I'm just such a big galoof I can't do anything.

Ugh. Well, I'm going out for breakfast tomorrow at 8:00, and so I'm going to need all the sleep I can get. I'm looking forward to it, but at the same time I think it's going to be really hard getting up an hour earlier than I usually do.

So I'm just getting ready for bed, it's Sunday night which is the worst night of the week and I'm just thinking about the days ahead of me and my state of mind. My dad has finally legit sold his house and as excited that I am I'm scared I'll be sad. I've been handling everything so well lately that I would just appreciate myself more if moving were just a smooth and much needed change. I've had a bum week in a way, although I feel like this week I've made alot of my aquantices closer people to myself. My friends have all been really busy and I am such a clingy mushy person that I really miss them all. But we will see what happens this week.

The days of May

So it has been a few days. My last post was uploaded from my phone I believe as I was messing around with an interesting new blogger application that I downloaded. Not too much has changed, the weather has changed dramatically though since a couple weeks ago. In Edmonton there isn't much of a spring, it kind of goes from blizzarding and extreme heat, and then all of a sudden it's summer time.

I can smell it when I go outside. My neighbors are all using their barbeques, it smells warm outside. That smell that the trees give when they bloom, and when your driving in the car and you look down the road and there is a haze over it. It's all happening. The grass is green, the trees are still moderately naked but I remember from last year that around Chris' birthday the grass was extremely green but the trees were still dead until my birthday rolled around.

Anyways, I'm just sitting here clicking my tongue and staring out the window at my tree that has buds on it's branches! I have been going tanning on a regular basis, and I am waiting to look in the mirror and see myself extremely tanned. Also, I have since got my learners, and started driving the day after I got it. And I drove all of this weekend and It was extremely fun, and somewhat scary. But it's one hurtle I had been waiting to cross for awhile and at least now I know how to do it and I just need to keep learning and get better. (Because I suck at driving)

Anyways, I'm reading some SIMS stories and I'm bored and I am trying to get Chris to come over tomorrow to give him his gift. So, ttyl!
