Tumbling!

Hey everyone! Nicki Carolynn, here! Today at school, I saw that there was an "audition" sign up sheet for tumbling. I decided to sign up; I remembered when I was six how I used to LOVE tumbling. I would always call my cousin, Anna-li and 'brag' how I was able to hold my handstand for over five seconds. On the flyer, it said that you need to have a leotard. It also said that you need to be able to do atleast a cartwheel, a handstand, and a split. "Auditions" would be held at York Academy's gym on Friday, October 1st 2010. I was very exited because not only was I able to do all three of those moves required, but Cinnamon and Lindsey (My sisters), were going shopping after school. I could go with them and buy a leotard!! They were on sale half price at TJ-Maxx, so I used only half of the money my mom gave me to buy it; I got to keep the other $20! Cinnamon and Lindsey argued that I should have gotten the pink floral print one, but instead I got one that has cute red zebra print that shimmers in the light. That is why on my leotard, it looks so grainy. Mom said it tricked the camera :). I am super exited and can not wait till try outs! Wish me luck?

  1. I've always wanted to do tumbling but I'm not really the most 'athletic' person out there. I would rather sing and perform then plya 'real sports'. Besides, I have horrible eye-coordination so that wouldn't come in handy in sports that have ball involved. xD
