Il y a aucune facon de savoir. J’essayait de penser seulement de mes routines, et de faire de mon meilleur. <br />Nicole: Pour ce qui ne savent pas, la poutre est ta specialite. Commant est-ce que ca sent d’etre la seule personne dans la monde de faire quelqu’unes de tes trucs?<br />Carly: C’est un sentiment extraordinaire. Je sens unique et speciale chaque fois que je les performes. <br />Nicole: Ils sont tous facinant. Alors sur ton event finale, la sol, etait-tu confiante?<br />Carly: Oui, dans un sens.

En tombant, elle s’est frappé la jambe sur la cote de la poutre. Tu pourras voir immédiatement qu’elle avait beaucoup de douleur. On l’a ammené à l’hopital. Apres plusieurs heures, elle a sorti de l’hopital en utilisant des béquilles. On a parlé à son entraineur, et son entraineur a nous dit qu’elle a brisé la jambe. Des fois, quand une gymnaste brise la jambe, ca termine son carriere. <br /><br />Nastia ne pourra pas entrainer pour aux moins 6 mois. Les championats mondiaux prennent place en 8 mois. Est-ce Nastia sera présente? Nous allons voir <br /><br /> Lettre d’opinion<br /><br />Bonjour Nicole Je voulais juste te dire que tu es mon héroine Avant le commencement de ton revue extaordinaire, il n’y avait aucune source d’information à propos du sport incroyable de la gymnastique.

Je m’entraine 27 heures par semaine. J’adore la gymnastique, mais recemment, je n’ai pas de plaisir quand je m’entraine. C’est à cause de mon entraineur.

Je ne veux pas aller à un autre entraineur parce qu’elle est la meilleur dans la province.<br />Monique Lalande<br />Chere Monique,<br /> Beaucoup de gymnastes ont cette problème. Quand tu passes 27 heures par semaine avec n’importe qui tu vas te commencer à sentir frustré. Tu dois te souvenir que quand les entraineurs te critiques, ils sont en train d’essayer d’aider. Peut-etre si tu lui parle et lui dit que ca te decourage, ca pourra aider.

Tomorrow is gonna be the slackest day ever, except for friday when it will be as slack as it can possibly get. What a week!! OMG!!! Celeste is leaving on Friday, and I just found out today, because she neglected to tell me. Girls truely are bitches. It's like... our mannerism. It's in our nature to be bitches. We are destined for it. I don't like. Not one bit. I remind myself of Dr. Seuss sometimes. Speaking of doctors, I was watching Dr.Phil today (for the first time ever) during spare, and they were talking about how some stupid little morons play a game called space monkey, which consists of choking eachother (thats right, litterally choking) untill they pass out and start seizuring. So I'm watching this, and they're all like, "It doesn't maybe cause perminant brain damage, IT DOES cause it, or you could ger hemmerages, strokes," and like the list GOES ON. Then there was this guy that died from doing this. So my brother suddenly pipes up, and he's like "have you ever done that Nikki?" I was like... "Uhhh NO! I'm not fucking stupid." He was like "oh." I was like, "HAVE YOU!!?!?" and he was like... "yeah! lots last year! It's really cool! When you're done your seizure, you feel tingly!" I was like, "........!!!!!!!!!........!!!!!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF?!!?!"<br />fucking moron. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gymnasticsangel:59510 2005-09-26T03:36:18Z 2005-09-26T03:36:18Z <a name="cutid1"></a><br />Lord of the Flies – Panel Discussion <br /><br /><br /> “What else is there to do?” (180 Simon) Speaking out loud towards the clearance, right after having a seizure then he decided to go tell people.<br /><br />“He... gazed at the green and black mask before him, trying to remember what Jack looked like.” (Golding 178) – Ralph did it<br /><br />The beast is a hunter… we couldn’t kill it. (Jack 126)<br /><br />“The half-shut eyes were dim with the infinite cynicism of adult life. They assured Simon that everything was a bad business.” (Golding 137) Describing The Lord of the Flies.<br /><br />“ ‘We can’t keep one fire going. And they don’t care. And what’s more, I don’t sometimes.’ ” (Ralph 139) <br /><br />· The novel as a whole symbolizes the extent of which man can be savage, and how little it really takes to set us off.<br />· “Golding represents the conflict between civilization and savagery in the conflict between the novels 2 main characters: Jack, and Ralph.” (sparknotes.com)<br />· “The forest glade in which Simon sits in, symbolizes the loss of innocence.” (sparknotes.com) – At first there’s natural peace, then later on in the novel, he returns and he finds the head of a bloody sow.<br />· Lord of the Flies represents evil, loss of innocence, and the devil.<br />· Simon symbolizes the goodness of man-kind. Some people say there are similarities between him and Jesus. Simon is the one who finds the truth of the novel (what the beast is) then the other boys kill him, (sacrifice him). Simon’s conversation with the Lord of the Flies can be linked with Jesus’ conversation with the devil during his 40 days in the wilderness. (Information from sparknotes.com)<br />· Conch shell – Authority, power, order, and civilization. – When conch shell is broken, what little order there was left, is completely gone.<br />· Piggy’s glasses – Technology, intelligence, the ability to see farther ahead. (See more consequences.) Other boys are short sighted.<br />· Signal Fire represents the boys’ desire to be rescued from the island. As it diminishes, so does their desire.<br />· The beast represents the instinct of savagery that exists in all of us. As the boys get to be more barbaric, the more real the beast seems to become.<br />· When the Lord of the Flies promises to have “fun” with Simon, this “fun” is foreshadowing his death.<br />· Jack symbolizes the need for power and the savagery that exists in society, and anarchy, or maybe even fascism. <br />· Ralph represents democracy.<br />· Piggy symbolizes knowledge and morality. Ralph could have possibly given in to the “beast” if it weren’t for Piggy.<br />· Island is a microcosm. There is a war going on in both worlds. Ralph playing on the beach, pretending to be a plane.

But not really, but it really seems like it, cause I'm in one of those moods where the littlest things make me wanna scream. I'm actually just sitting here pouting like a 4 year old. But all those little things truely do build up. It all started when I woke up to Sean Desman (EEWWWW) at 6:45 this morning so that I could get ready to go to gymnastics crazy early, then I ran out of time to eat breakfast, so I ate it in the car while making my lesson plan for coaching. So I train for 5 fucking hours, then I had to set up for coaching, then I coached till two. So, I was supposed to have 7 kids in my group, but instead 4 other kids who weren't supposed to show up, showed up. And 4 kids were screaming and crying cause they didnt wanna join the group, and all the parents are trying to get me to take their screaming kids, while I'm trying to run the rest of the class, and I'm getting so frustrated, cause the kids who weren't crying were jumping all over the place, and I was trying to get everyone to listen, and all this while my coach (and boss) was watching me in disgust, but there was nothing else I could have done. So she decided that she was gonna step in, and she messed up my plan entirely, but whatever. The at the end of class, she stops me before I could leave and she was like..."What happened!?!" And I was like..."Uhhh...?" She was like..."You must plan your lessons better!!" And I was like..."Ummm yeah, but 4 kids showed up who weren't supposed to be there..." She interupts me, and she's like..." Did you get their name and phone number?!?!?!" Uhhhhh OBVIOUSLY NOT BITCH!! I'm not just gonna randomly ask every 4 year old kid for their fucking phone number!!! So I was like..."No..." And she was like... "Why not?!?! This has got to improve! You have to plan better! I'm very dissapointed." So this whole conversation is happening while this new guy coach is standing right there, and I was trying really hard not to like, cry or rip her bulgy-eyed head off, and he's hearing all of this. And ever since then I've been in a erally bad mood and all the little things are bugging me. :( Sorry for the long, negative, stupid entry. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gymnasticsangel:56421 2005-09-07T03:10:28Z 2005-09-07T03:10:28Z RFR!! :D 1.

I got back from Minneapolis yesterday! It was soooooo sooo fun!!! They would like throw you up for 2 backflips in a row, or 2 twists while flipping with a straight body, and I did backtucks on beam with them, this new dismount off beam, and other fun stuff!!! :D<br /><br />My mom got back from New York on Friday, and she brought me back amazing stuff!!:D I'm so happy! I got an I &lt;3 NY purse, an I &lt;3 NY tanktop, an I&lt;3 Ny pen, and I &lt;3 NY PJ pants, a Hershey chocolate bar thats called Times Square (I thought that was hilarious), and a NY sweater!! :D I love it ALL. <br /><br />Today I have to go clean my gym for 4 hours. :( Eh, I'll count it for volenteer hours. Tomorrow I have drivers and on Wednesday I have drivers, then I'm done!!! :D Oh yeah, and I think I'm going to my brothers Grade 8 grad tomorrow. Woot. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gymnasticsangel:52198 2005-06-23T03:44:37Z 2005-06-23T03:44:37Z Wow. What A day.<br />Soooooo after my stupid long science exam, where I was basically the last one done, I went to Chelseas with Buddy, Colby, Kyle, Lysh, Mimi and Chels, and it was so super fun. We swam lots. And I got a tan. Although apparently when I'm swimming I look like sperm.<br /><br />So then I get home, call Mrs. G to tell her I can't go to Minneapolis, she flips out, and I panic, and the whole reason I couldn't go was because I had to get my mom to sign a paper letting me cross the border, but she's in New York. SoOoOoO....after the most stressful night of my life, I finally was able to change the drivers schedual, Get US money, Locate my mom in NY, get her to find a fax machine, fax me her letter, find my birth certificate, dissapoint my auntie...And so on... So yeah, I'm leaving for Minneapolis tomorrow morning at 7:30... I'm coming back on Sunday.... :( I'm gonna miss everyone SOOOO SOOOO much. And I would e-mail people, but thats not working either. BYE GUYS!!!! (k)(l) :(<br />Nikki urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gymnasticsangel:51922 2005-06-22T05:57:08Z 2005-06-22T05:57:08Z Not Enough - Our Lady Peace OMG YOU GUYS I CANT BELIEVE IT!!! IM THE STUPIDEST PERSON ON THE PLANET!!!!! I studied for approx. 16 hours for my geo exam, and then I do the exam, finishing pretty confidently, and then realising AFTER I hand it in, that I missed the WHOLE ENTIRE fucking section on Quebec and Tabac. I re-read all my answers twice, and I missed it 3 times. DIDNT EVEN SEE IT. On 15 points. Wow. So now I can only start off with like a 90. All that studying was basically for nothing. And now it's one in the morning and I have a science exam in 8 hours. I should go to sleep. I've been studying for the past 5 hours. I'm tired. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:gymnasticsangel:51655 2005-06-21T04:30:18Z 2005-06-21T04:30:18Z UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH.<br />My stupid dad is so unreasonable. There's no pleasing him. Today I studied a grand total of 7 hours and just because I went to a BBQ and to Licks with Chels he thinks I'm unresponsible and all he keeps saying is how I'm not ready, and how if I fail, I'm not doing anything this summer, and how I don't put enough effort into anything that I do. Like what the fuck do you want me to do?? Maybe I should just stop trying cause I'm obviously never gonna be up to his standards. Maybe I'll just give it all up, and do drugs and have sex and get all sorts of piercings and tatoos and be a total slut, and get pregnant and move out. That would be fun. FUCK it's so frustrating.<br /><br />Tomorrow is Geo. I'm not sure if I'm ready. I got a bit tanned today. :) I should be studying right now, but my brain can't take it anymore. Like my head actually hurts. Maybe I'll wake up early tomorrow to do some more last minute studying.<br /><br />Sorry for all the complaining guys. I still have some hope. Maybe the house will explode before tomorrow morning, so I won't have to write the exam.
