Meet Tomorrow!

2007 Yurchenko Invitational

November 30 - December 2, 2007

Tonight was a fun night. I got to practice with team one again. We started on vault. Out of three vaults I stuck two ( I was vaulting on #6). Not too bad. Then we went to bars. I did one low bar and one high bar. Then I did one routine. I did pretty well on that. Next was beam. I didn't even warm up my back walkover back tuck but in my routine I stuck it. Then floor. We just warmed up our tumbling passes and then we were done. Today was a short practice. Afterwards we went to the Chinese buffet. I had a really great time. We laughed and talked a lot. We even saw someone we knew there. If I ever get the chance again, I'm definitely going! What a great time we had...

Fall Frenzy My First Meet - Level 8

Saturday, November 11, 2007 was my first meet in level eight. It was pretty fun considering some of the mess ups I did. All the optionals competed together. Level seven started on bars and levels eight, nine, and ten started on vault. I was third competing. I decided I was going to go for a tsuk pike and I ended up falling on my butt. I went again doing tsuk tuck and my score was an 8.825. Next event was bars. I did pretty good except when I was going down after my cast turn my legs hit the floor, my score on this event was an 8.525. Next was beam, my best event. I stuck my routine and it was really solid. I ended up getting a score of a 9.4. Last event was floor, I did pretty ok but I could of done much better, my score was a 9.175. According to my dad I didn't try my best. My all-around was second place with a score of 35.975. My bars and beam got me second place and my floor and vault got me third.
A cool thing is that Shannon Miller
and Sean Golden visited our gym on the day of our meet. They talked to us and we got some autographs. A cool thing that she did was...she autographed.......
our competition beam
and took a team picture with us. I got a couple pictures of them also. A funny thing also happened when we were waiting for scores. The coaches had a handstand contest, Sergei put in a good effort but he didn't win.

Well, that was my meet!

PIT TIME!!!

Thursday... we had vault, beam, and bars. On vault of course I did tsuk. They were horrible. I don't know why I'm doing so bad on vault, I keep falling on my butt. On beam we did routines, Mrs. Tamara judged me and I got a 9.45 and I didn't fall. On bars we were supposed to do routines but once again I chickened out. I keep stopping...when I get to the high-bar and I won't go for the high-bar. Friday...we had Beam and floor. On beam we did routines once again(this is getting boring... I know... just hold in...) and we just did five this time. On floor we did routines and it was really good, I wasn't tired or anything. Saturday we had vault, floor and bars. This was a little mixed up because Mrs. Tamara had to leave early so we didn't get to do what we usually do. On vault I did tsuks and still kept falling on my butt. Floor I did good and on Bars all everyone did was low-bar the whole hour. That night there was a at the gym, I went to it. We cleaned out the whole pit and added new cubes. There aren't enough cubes so we can't go in the pit. That night we played fun games like chicken in the pen house, , handstand & headstand contests and more. We took some pictures and my friends and I stayed up until like 3:30. But really it was like 4:30 because it was daylight savings time so we had 2:00 AM twice. It was really fun and I had a real great time.
Check out the pictures below...you can leave a comment to say how your sleepover went!!!!

Monday we had beam and floor. On beam I stuck two routines out of five. That's pretty good because I only do connection on one beam and I did routines on that beam twice. On floor we did the regular thing. We warmed up our tumbling passes and did routines. I did the regular But this time I did one and a half on my last tumbling pass. It wasn't the best ever but at least I didn't fall on it. Tuesday we had bars and vault. Bars we did our routines as usual. I finished my two routines and started working more on cast turn. On vault we did tsuks. I stuck most of them but they weren't good. Then on Thursday (today) we had vault beam and bars. On vault we did tsuks again but they weren't that good. I fell on my butt most of the times. Then on beam I didn't sick any routines. I stuck some of my connections but not my routines. On bars I only did one routine because I broke my arm..... JUST KIDDING!! I just didn't do very good on my other low bars so I didn't go to high bar. Oh yeah and I have a question for you. On Saturday our gym is having a sleepover, should I go?? I can't decide. Just comment telling me what you think.
