Class Post 2/25
I wasn't in class today because I have a sinus infection. I heard from Emilio that we went to the black box and listened to Reggie Carpenter speak. I know Reggie personally because I am friends with her youngest son Sam. She is a very sweet woman and I wish I could have heard her tell her story.

Dear Reader,
My overall goal for my WISE project is to learn to tumble in hopes of making myself a more marketable candidate for a collegiate cheerleading team.
My project has several phases that will each be a challenge in themselves. I am excited that my project has so many aspects because I will be learning several skills instead of just being stuck with one basic thing. Obviously, my main goal is to learn tumbling passes at a collegiate level. In order to make this possible I will first need to fundraise for the lessons that will be close to $1000. I also need to retrain my body to work in this type of strenuous situation. I am used to this type of activity during my season but since the end of the year, I haven't conditioned. I will also need to change my eating habits in order to help my body work properly with such physical activity.
My goals are to fundraise efficiently, condition properly to do well at the gym, and learn 5 tumble tricks. I would also hope to become more self motivated and committed by sticking to my fitness plan and gym schedule.
I have always wanted to learn tumbling passes and really get into shape. I am so excited to take this first step and do something for myself that is long overdue. Can't wait for the progress to begin!
