Personal Narrative: My Gymnastics
When I was in second grade I learned that I loved competing with people and being good at things. I joined a gymnastics gym near my house in second grade when i was 9, and started competing when i was 10. My mom told me that I have to do well in school if I was going to be focused on a sport along with school, or she would take me out of gymnastics. Soon enough, I wasn’t doing so well in social studies and comm skills. I was scared my mom would make me quit, But I worked as hard as I could so get back up there. Focusing more on school than outside activities, I got that grade back up and I continued with my favorite sport. I love gymnastics, but I don’t let it get in the way of school because school always comes first.

    Personal Narrative: Salem Varsity Gymnastics

    I was a Freshman on the Salem Varsity Gymnastics team, and practice consisted of preparing the team for regionals. An unknown pain in my back wound me up in the trainer's office for an hour of the two and a half hour practice. After finishing the season strong, even though I wanted to give up countless times, pushing myself to work through the pain paid off at regionals. Even though I should have stopped because I made the pain and recovery time longer, I refused to give up on my team the week before regionals. The minute season ended, I decided to go see my doctor, he said I pulled a muscle, and the solution was rest, heat, and ice.…

    Personal Narrative: Roller Derby

    The most memorable thing that happened to me was when I first discovered what I’m really good at. I came across inspiring Youtube videos of old classic Roller Derby and recent ones that were published only a year ago, I knew from the moment I laid eyes on those quads that I had to try it. In less than two weeks I was a complete natural at skating, I was all about skates. I practiced all the derby stances, exercises, techniques you name it I am absolutely in love with this sport. but as much as I fantasized about doing it I never thought that I’d actually get the chance to be part of their world and have training by the Derby Dames Juniors Freshmeat Association crew, which are ranked the top thirty-one in the united states!…

    Personal Narrative: Hard To Skate

    There are some spots that are hard to skate and I couldn't really skate well and no matter how hard I try I can't land it. There's some stuff I can do and I practice all the time to make sure I can get better I may not be the best, but I try my hardest on skating.Occasionally it's difficult to ride or it's not working out on what you want, but friends help me to do new tricks and that's why on hard spots I try my hardest even if I get a scrape or even a bruise may even have a broken bone but there's always going to be something hard to do but doesn't mean it's impossible the day could be hot or cold making it difficult to skate in but there's always a different spot.…

    Personal Narrative: Physical Therapy And Athletic Training

    My goal is to become either a physical therapist or an athletic trainer and help out many athletes who struggle to get back to their normal body. I had two injuries during two consecutive high school golf seasons: a muscle strain in the back and a collarbone fracture. After a week of physical therapy after my surgery on my right collarbone, I started to be able to carry my backpack with one shoulder and write with my right hand. Two month after physical therapy, I was able to hit my driver. Then I realized something quite surprising; as I started to practice, my driver started to go further and further. My coaches had the same reaction as they both asked me if the story of the collarbone incident was actually true.…

    Personal Narrative: My Muscular Strength

    This semester I worked on increasing my muscular strength. I feel that overall I was successful in my goal. Determination made me successful along with the help of a fitness app called “Lose It!”. The drive to eat the food that my body needed to gain muscle. The drive to work out and to push myself to the max. I had to really want to achieve my goals to succeed. Tracking my diet and activity in the Lose It app showed me information I was unaware of in my everyday life. I learned that it is actually very hard to eat as much food as my body needed to gain muscle. Not only that, but also that the food I ate had to be healthy. I learned that the activity’s that I was doing didn’t burn as many calories as I had originally thought. The food I was eating did not come close to containing the nutritional value I needed. I had to eat more food. Which is harder than most would think because the food needs to be healthy. My family has a relatively healthy lifestyle which made this behavior change relatively easy.…

    The Fat Girl

    When I was very young I went to preschool and got involved in dance and gymnastics, which took up a great amount of my time and first got me involved in athletics. I also played soccer and swam competitively. As I got older and progressed through the public school system I became more involved with track and skiing, and less involved with dance and gymnastics. However, even though I am not currently involved in any kind of competitive athletics, I remain very active, and still love to ski and swim whenever possible!…

    Personal Narrative: My First Gymnastics

    At the age of two my parents decided I had too much energy and they enrolled me in my first gymnastics class. As a female you train four events: vault, bars, beam, and floor. I went to class once a week for two years and at the age of four I joined the competitive team. As a competitive gymnast, you train year round and a minimum of 10 hours a week is spent in the gym. Some schools even require additional classes in ballet in order to improve the dance side of gymnastics. During the competitive season, usually November to March, you travel to competitions against other schools. At these competitions you showcase your skills on each event and a team of judges gives you a score based on the difficulty of your chosen skills and how well you…

    Personal Narrative: The Day I Lost Dance

    I was always one of those kids that never felt comfortable doing any sport. So when I found out that I had a talent for dancing, I was overjoyed. I started dance during my 5th grade year of school. I immediately fell in love with the sport. I was obsessed with it. I worked very hard my 6th grade year to be able to join my dance academy’s company, and I had finally made it into the company, when things went south. One day, during my musical theatre class I was doing a combo that my teacher, Jessica Childs, had given my class. When my best friend Lauren and I were doing the combo I knew something wasn’t right. My right leg had a twinging pain, and when I did the grande botama at the end of the combo, I knew I had pushed myself too far. Over the next year and a half, I would go through the long search to find a way to heal whatever was wrong. It was an experience that I’ll never forget.…
