Cheer!

Some of you may know about me trying out for my school cheer! i did this week clinic thing at 7:30 every morning since tuesday. They would teach us a dance, 2 chants, the school song/dance, and we would rally and do jumps/kicks. So my friends and I all did that and then came Friday after school. the actual try-outs. I was SOOOO scared you have no idea!!!!! i had practiced the dance at least 62 times the day before, and i was so sore from everything, and i was scared that since i was sore, i wouldn't do the best i could and i wouldn't make it. I still gave it my best shot. we were told not to say "woooo!" when we rallied because it sound like "booo" and then we had to rally after everything we do even jumps! So me and this girl Sam tried out together. i was so scared. we walked in, and i saw like 10 people (most of them, teachers) were sitting on a table on the opposite side of the room. they had me rally across the mat first, then Sam. I did not say woo! then we walked over to our x's. i was smiling all the time to hide my fear! They had me do my hurkey first, then my toe touch. it stinks because i forgot to rally after those jumps. haha. then we did the fight song, and one of the chants. The dance was what i was worried about. i thought i would freeze up in the middle of it. I didn't. a miracle. I was smiling and going and after the fight song and the dance i rallied!!!!! its good we remembered to rally because that would have effected our chance of making it. so i went home and we were supposed to call the cheer coaches number to listen to her voicemail after 8:00. my friend txts me at 7:43 saying "you made it!" and i start freaking out running to the phone. i call the number, and me and my parents listen to it on speakerphone. i heard names and numbers and then i heard "number 9, Kayla Cook" and me and my parents started screaming and hugging freaking out!!!!!! it was the best thing ever! then i had some of my "cheer friends" come over to watch a movie! it was a crazy fun night!!!! So now i am in Fremont cheer year 2009- 2010! aaaah!!!!
