Baton Nationals!!!

Oh, my gosh!!! Baton Nationals was so much fun and we all did really well. Here is how I did:

Intermediate Solo- 6th out of 41

Int. X-strut- 7th out of 33

Int. Flag- 7th

Show twirl- 6th out of 25

Two- baton- 2nd out of 31

Team- pom got 13th out of 26 we learned the routine two weeks ago
production we don't know yet
regular team we got 3rd out of 13

We were on our way to the Hammus Bookstore on campus when I got a call from my coach saying that me and somebody else needed to go up for awards. So me and my friend Jennifer ran across campus, changed our clothes, ran all around the arena to find where we needed to go and then stood for a half hour long awards ceremony. During the awards they announce the top ten and the other three losing teams are left in the back in front of everyone which is really embarassing. So they announced tenth place, and ninth place and we're thinking 8th or 7th place wouldn't be so bad. Then they announced fifth and me, Jennifer, and Kirsti are like,"Crap, we didn't even make top ten. " So we are looking at the ground and covering our faces with our hands and our coach has her face buried in her hands. Then we ended up getting 3rd. So the first place winners are just standing there smiling and then there's us, the third place winners jumping up and down screaming and laughing, it was so funny.

Check back tomorrow for pictures and more funny stories.
