Humming with the music turns to making up lyrics for the music turns to covering your ears/eyes, trying to make it go away.
Mentally judging the other routines turns to counting how many girls are left in the rotation. Is there really a whole team that still needs to compete floor while everyone else is done? Really?
The host gym has this weird thing where parents can make shout-outs to their kids, which are read out loud by the meet director during warm-ups. It's all pretty generic, like, "Dear Alex, We love you! Good luck from Mom, Dad, Timmy, and Skittles."
When you've been there for more than three hours, you start to hope that the shout-outs will sound like this:
OMG. Oh. My. God. Hilarious. I HATE the shout outs lol, we do them at our competitions too. My least favorite part however, has to be the kissing ass and schmoozing between veteran coaches and the judges. Barf.
ReplyDeleteYes! I find that so uncomfortable! I speak to the judges as little as possible, haha.
