WayCoolKidz Adventures: My First Competion

Early Sunday morning, Mom woke me and Declan up at 6:00. We ate breakfast in the car. The meet was near Wilmington. The meet started at 9:00 and it was at Topsail High School. We were the first ones there from our team. Miss Chelsea got there a little after us. She stopped at a bagel store and bought a bagel and coffee. Hailey, Brittney and Madison got there a little after that. Before we all started we ran 7 laps and then we stretched. After we stretched our group went into a room. It was a practice room. We did time warm up on beam. Once we were done we went out to the gym. We had to stand by our sign, and it was shaped like a sailboat. I carried the sign for our team, we lined up smallest to tallest. Before we went to beam we met the judges. Then we went to beam. Brittney went first. I went third. There was a girl named Molly she's 12. She cried on beam, and I feel bad for her. She was nice to me. Then we went back to the practice room. We practiced on floor. We practiced backhand springs, the first part of our routine and our split leap pass. Then we went out to the gym. Hailey went first and I went last. I did a good job but forgot to salute at the end of my routine. I lost points, I won't forget next time. We went to vault next. Vault was the easiest one. The mats were lower then the ones at our gym. Last we went to bars. Bars was my second hardiest event. I had fun competing. There were three other Chinese girls competing. One Chinese girl was my age. Her name was Katie. She was adopted from Hunan province.
We went to the practice gym for awards. I got 1st place on beam, 1st place on vault, 2ed place on bars and 1st place over all. I got three trophes and a metal. Mom took a picture of me and Miss Chelsea. You will see a picture of me and Miss Miss Chelsea below. My next meet is in 2 weeks away. I can't wait till the next meet. Now I love, love, love, love meets. :]
