Twenty-eight days until the nin/qotsa concert and I'm sooooooo excited!!! Weeeeeeee!
Now that one of the friends I was taking with me just proved herself to be, well...less than trustworthy and honest, I'm not quite sure what do do. I know I'll just have to deal, perhaps she'll decide not to go, hmmm.
Just so you all know, this "friend" decided to start trouble and when she was called on it at work, she threw my name into the mix....and i had nothing to do with it. I'm very upset and angry right now. My boss is awesome though and knows me well enough to know I wouldn't be involved and didn't believe said "friend." It pays to actually be trustworthy and honest folks, it really does and hopefully this person will learn thier lesson (I'm not holding my breath though).
So back to pleasantness...The concert should be a blast no matter what happens, NOTHING is ruining this for me...I refuse to let it. *pumping fists toward the sky*
I'm in my last month of training before Centrals. This is where it gets reaaaaly interesting, i havn't done centrals in a couple years.....oi! I'm competing as a Junior...which means I, more than likely, will get completely forgotten in the shuffle because there a about a billion Junior Ladies this year...ick. But if can stand up on everything and keep my quality up, the new system may work to my advantage, and if it doesn't, at least I can say I skated clean programs in Utah *fingers are crossed*. This sucks, the Utah part i mean. The altitude is more than a problem, it's a menace. We have a plan though, and I swear to god it better work. We are going to start training our programs with surgical masks on. I've heard that this simulates the breathing situation at altitude and based on my sources, I'm sure it works. The other problem for me is nosebleeds, last time we had centrals there I had a nosebleed every practice session. Every single one....worst week of my life by the way. I'll have a bottle of saline at my side at all times this year. Lets all hope that this time I won't get there and forget how to skate like before. I am so much better trained than I was back then already, so I know I at least won't be embarrassing myself. I did a really nice short program run through yesterday...the double axel wasn't great, i rushed into it and was loose and short on rotation, but I stood up and the rest of the program was clean, I nailed the spins and the spiral sequence is getting better all the time. I was totally wasted afterwards though, I hate the way it feels after a run through...legs and arms feel like jell-o, and heavy,and sometimes after a freeskate run through I get a tummy ache and and I get sleepy. Every once in a while I do a really good run through and the adrenaline is quite a rush...love that. I just hate the ones that ruin me for the rest of the day.
Oh goodness look how much I've been chit chatting, I got things to do!
A Biento!
