Snapshots of my Life

I remember when I was in elementary, my teacher always asks me to join various competitions such as Quiz bees, pageants, essay writing contests and even with cheering competition. I am no dancer honestly and I didn't picture myself wearing cheerleading uniforms and being tossed in the air but I know that I can do it since most steps are exhibitions and I am somehow flexible enough to bend my body.

After the entire contest that I've been through, I eventually joined our school-cheering club. I started as a member and then I surprisingly became the team's cheerleader. I actually didn't expect that to happen, as I am not looking forward to be like that. So ever since then, I somehow became hands on with the team and I was always the one arranging all practices. I was also assigned for the design of our uniforms and of course, that includes the cheerleader costume. It was actually a bit hard to become a cheerleader because of the responsibilities and every time the team won't win in a certain competition, it hurts more in my part.

I suddenly missed being part of a cheering team. I miss the times that we stay up late at night just to polish the steps in preparation for the competition, the times that we share each winning moments and the tears we shed for every failure. I know that I won't be in my cheerleader costume anymore and so I wish that one day, Bela will follow my path and be one of the cheering team as well. I would be happy to see if that happened though I can see that she is really not into dancing but I'm not going to force her if she really doesn't like it.

Oh well, I probably should stop reminiscing now because I'm missing my high school life more and more.
