Jr. Nationals June 20-21 2008

Hello all, I’m back from Shy-Town. What a great trip. This was my second nationals show this year and I placed 6th and ahh it was a little hard pill to swallow. Many said MJ thats great but it was a little hard for me. I placed 3rd at Jr. USA’s my first show of 2008 and my first Nationals. You know when you do well the first time you have high expectations for the next or at least I do. Though I went past the goal at both shows. I am very hard on myself.

The show was a 2 day show UGH!!!! I was beat. Friday night was so hard on me. I had a headache and thank God for my friend Jaycia she kept me focused and reminded me of what I was there for. Being tall, I am in F (the tallest of 6 classes) we are usually last. It was about 11pm before we went on Friday night. Whew wee! a sista was tired. So my smile was lacking and my headache showed. Not only that many of the girl where not the type of company I cared for. Now let me clear something up. I did not say all the girls where not friendly. But quite a few girl where mean and ugly towards me and each other. It hurts to see this type of behavior from grown folks. I mean I just think when you get to these shows to compete there is no reason to get angry or hate on the next competitor because she got call outs or she just clearly looks better. I mean there’s is nothing you can do at that point except shine the best you can for the rest of the show and when you get back to your gym you put your gang face on and you think about her legs or shoulders or what ever you need to bring up on your physique. You should hate on your competitor twelve sixteeen plus weeks out from your show. You know we have all had them or maybe just me but I have days when a crave for fries, ice cream, cheesecake, hmmm a cinna bun or maybe sorry my bad- oopps I got a little carried away. Me and food just love each other. lol. Or maybe you did not feel like doing cardio or walking lunges one day. Maybe all that dag on fish, sweet potato, oatmeal just taste the same now. yep! you want some flava right. Been there done that. UGH!! Well, remember this. On any given day you slack off your competitor, that chik your hating on, is busting her but and sucking up the bland fish, sweet potato, oatmeal. My point is why cant we just rejoice in other accomplishments-you know work on ourselves to be the best We can be. I can be. You can be. Because when you put fourth the effort and do the best you can you will get yours. I know it. I do believe what God has for me is for me and no matter what anyone does it is for ME. He will not forsake you. Now this is just my opinion ok. lol. Really it is how I look at things an some may disagree. All in all the trip was great. It was nice to visit Shy town enjoyed the learning experience and it was fuel for the fire I have to turn pro. So now I am back at the gym and thinking about my competitor for round three Team Universe in NYC 11 weeks to get another shot at about 10min of shine time on stage to make the judges look again and say hmmm. yeah ! She’s got the look! Goal for Team U is top Five and a Pro card would be OOOOHHHHH SWEET!!

Oh I almost forgot one of the best parts of this journey is I bought TWO new pair of shoes and hmmmmm they are smokin! Shoes make me ahhh well I just love shoes. lol.
