the meet (copied from the other blog)

So, I had my meet today. It wasn't a normal meet, it was just trying to get me out of level 5, I didn't make it last time. Luckily I scored out. there were only five girls at the meet from my team and there were level (USAG) 5, 6, 7, and 10's there. My best friend from the gym Kendy was there, and another girl around my age-Sydney, and another girl who moved here from the Netherlands, but before that she lived in Florida, she is around Moniques age and her name is Crosby. We were the level 5's who didn't make it out last time. And then there was a girl named Rachel who scored out of level 5 last time and was trying to score out of level 6.I felt really bad for Crosby when, on the first rotation-beam-she pulled a muscle. She fell twice because of it. She looked sad when she was walking back, so I was going to give her a hug, and I was like it's okay, you can still make it. But then she started yelling ow, ow, and holding her leg. She started crying and sort of collapsed on the ground, crying. everyone was looking to see if she was okay, and I was kinda ticked off because gyms are supposed to have a trainer at meets and this gym apparently didn't have so I was like yelling, "I thought that these gyms were supposed to have trainers in their meets," and looking around with a glare, but then the trainer ran over and shot me a mean look. She ended up competing on the other events, even though she was obviously still hurt.Everyone on our team in that meet scored out. Nothing else major happened, some falls on beam, including me. BTW, I split the beam yesterday and it hurt soo bad, but it's not the first time I've done it. Umm, I hurt my ankle a little on floor, but I used Crosby's ice when we were on vault. My steps were off on my first vault and I ended up taking off of the wrong foot on my second one.Sydney fell twice on bars and Kendy fell once. I, however, had an awesome bars which I will have to post.After the meet we invited all of the kids who competed with me to a bbq, but crosby had plans already, kendy was too tired, rachel left before she got our address, so only Sydney could come. We slid down the basement stairs on a mattress and ding-dong ditched my own house, which was pretty pointless because my dad waited by the doot the second time and scared me. And we flipped around the house and yard.So, yea, that was my amazing day, and now my scores, which are a lot lower than when I competed AAU, but they're pretty good for USAG:beam: 8.4floor: 7.925vault: 7.9bars: 8.575all-around: 32.8I need a 31 to score out. Last time I missed it by .15...anyway, I will try to post videos soon.
