Round-Off Backflip

Nationals

2011-06-25T00:07:00.000-07:00

Hi Followers,

Soon in July, there is a comp and training camp in Perth called Nationals. Next year it's somewhere else (hopefully in Brisbane!!!). Only Level IDP 6 can compete at Nationals but Level IDP 5 can go to the camp. I'm going to the camp with 5 other girls. We're leaving on the 15th of July and coming back on about the 21st of July.

Soon we're getting a new competition leotard and it's got some jade green on it. On the second day of Nationals, our IDP 6's will hopefully get to wear it. They're my best friends so I sort of don't want them to wear it without me!

Hey Guys,

Yesterday was Day 2 of VICS. I did pretty well on Bars and Floor. Vault was OK but Beam I fell but I still did really well. In the awards, I came 1st on Bars, Beam and Floor. I came 2nd on Vault and 1st AA!!!! I was SOOOOOOOO happy!

Hi,

Yesterday was one of the days of the biggest competition, VICS. Yesterday, it was the team awards and I was in the IDP 5 team. We did really well and all that paid off because we came first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were so happy! I nearly fell off the podium because we have 5 IDP 5s. We got our medal and the club will get a penant thing. MLC's IDP 6 gymnasts didn't have a team because there's only 2 and one didn't compete but she came with us. Tomorrow is the Individual awards. It's yesterday's score and tomorrow's score combined. So if I got 15.150 (which I did) on Bars yesterday, and I got 15.150 again tomorrow, I will have a Bars score of 30.300 which is really good. So far, I'm the State Champion of IDP 5. Christchurch competes as well but if they get something, a Victorian gets it as well because it's Victorian Championships.

I'm sick and here's what I'm doing

2010-09-16T19:08:00.000-07:00

Hi Followers,
I just came back from school camp on Wednesday. I'm sick so I can't go to gym. I'm quite bored here at home. It's unusual not being at gym all the time. I've done some stretching and strength at home because I can't do it at gym. I just played Jin Rummy (Jin for short) with my mum! I won a lot of the games. I'm going to watch some more TV soon. Mum said that I can choose another game to play but it can't be something like Cabbage Patch Kids.

I've also got a new pet. He's a silver grey tabby cat. He LOVES to play foosball!! Mum and dad took my brother and I out for a suprise. We finally arrived at the RSPCA in about half an hour. Mum then told us that we were getting a kitten! We were very excited. We got to the kitten adoption place where we met Nimbus. Our cute little kitten. It was love at first sight!

His full name is Nimbus Devil Vella-Wright.

How Much I Have Improved

2010-03-28T19:45:00.000-07:00

Hello Everyone!

I am sorry I haven't written in a while!!!!!

I have improved sooooooooo much!! Even now I have!

We had a skill test last month. We were scored by stars (bronze, silver and gold). I got 3 stars last time. Now I have 7 or 9. I think I have improved a lot!!

I think this year at VICS (Victorian Championships) my score will count as one of the best threee!!!!!

This Week Gym

2009-09-27T16:59:00.000-07:00

Hi,

This week, I have three training sessions. On Monday (today), Tuesday and Wednesday. Normally I have two coaches, but this week I have one. A girl in my group thinks that my coach T(T stands for a name) is strict. He is a bit strict sometimes, but T doesn't really like the girl I was talking about.
I think it is going to be fun this week!!
It will be fun:
A. I am going to Phillip Island on Friday
B. I have T coaching me for gym
C. I get to start packing...TODAY!!!!

About My Gymnastics

Hi Everyone,

I do gymnastics at a High Performance Gymnasium. There are lots of gymnasts there. I am in International Squad 2 which is the second highest squad at my gym. This year I competed at level 3A. When I had my competition season, I was in level 3A. Now my competition season is over so I am International level 5, because the next level up is International 5. I am now learning the International 5 routines and I will compete them next year.

During gym we do Strength, Flexibility, High Bar, Low Bar, Metal Bars, Floor Exercise, Floor Tumbling, Balance Beam, Tumble Track, Trampoline, Vault and Ballet. We don't do everything in one session.

I enjoy gym a lot!!
