Weekend Plans Lindsay DolneyThis weekend I will be going to dance tryouts. On Friday night I went to my friend Elicia’s house. She was going to pick me up from school but I forgot my bag at home. When I got home I made sure I had packed everything and was waiting for the call that Elicia was home. My Mom, (who was my ride) had to pick up my lunch for Saturday, but completely forgot to. So she and my sister Arianna went into town to get me some food. I thought she would just be going to Coburn's and would be gone for an hour at the most. But with tons of things not going her way, traffic, seeing my Dad in Walmart and talking to him and my other family for who knows how long, forgetting one of her credit cards, and many more things, she took way longer.

One of the things we worked on were toe-touches. If you know me you would know I am terrible at toe-touches. I tried to do one and instead of my feet landing the jump, I landed on my butt and bruised my tailbone. This was before lunch, so for the rest of the day whenever I tried to do a toe- touch, high kick or the splits it hurt really bad. And what hurt the most was leaps and jumps and of course that's what we worked on for the rest of the day when we weren't going over the dance. On top of that, because it hurt so bad and I didn't want to go up and complain, I didn't try as hard as I could have which wasn't very good for me to have done. I still had a great day though. Overall, I had lots of fun, and I know what I need to work on for our final tryouts
