Royal Impact.

Okay, Jocelyn is out for good. It's whatever. She brought it upon herself, so if she's willing to walk out on us and turn her back on us, I'll do the same and so will the rest of the team.

Practice today... my gosh we're changing 8 counts but at the same time it's taking so long to get the hang of it since it was a transition part too. It's like we're all trying our hardest, we're fine without Jocelyn's stunts, we all got assets of our own to bring to the team. But it's just frustrating because we're only 4 days away from Districts, AND Sarah and I are having issues with our English teacher. Since we need to go to the orchestra concert rehearsal tomorrow during 2nd and 3rd period, we end up missing the important exam for English. We talked to Ms. Hunter about it and she was just like, "You HAVE to take it either today or tomorrow after school." But Sarah and I have dance practice! With so little time before competition, I don't want to miss any dance practices, plus the exam might be a whole hour long. Hopefully we can negotiate with her to let us take it Thursday after school since on that day practice starts at 2:45.

We all need to step our game up like CRAZY. You have no idea how bad all of us want this. I know we got the potential too, but in the past it seems like not all of us had the exact same drive as everyone else. But oh man, this is DISTRICTS. I want to go to State for sure. We need to give it BEYOND our all or we won't make it.

So this week, I'm disciplining myself like mad. Get schoolwork done earlier, so that at night I can go to LA Fitness to practice in front of mirrors, and also work on my flips/splits/stunts so that they're cleaner. I really need to get over my fear of handstands -_- I hope my brother helps me with freezes and such because then I can work my core too.

I feel like school is such an incredible bother now. I want to focus focus focus on dance because this will be my last year on the team and going to competitions. School decides to pile on all the work now though, and it's so exhausting. Not to mention orchestra has that concert and Large Group Festival thing. I need to practice my violin a lot too.
