I remember the first time I did my round off, back handspring, back tuck by myself. I was really scared to try it. One of my coaches told me that she would give me three pieces of chocolate if I did it. My coach that was spotting me walked to the side of the matt and told me to go. I started to run and I decided to convince myself that she was standing there. Before I knew it, I was landing my back handspring and throwing my tuck! I felt my feet hit the ground and I was shocked! I landed it! When I was walking off the matt, my coach tried to give me candy. I told her that I didn’t want it because my reward was being able to land my tumbling pass. I ran as fast as I could to the corner of the matt and tried it again. When I landed it for the second time I almost cried. I was so happy that I couldn’t stop smiling!
This story really relates to my life because cheerleading is my life! I have been cheering for nine years and I do nothing else. My story ends in a happy way. I finally landed my tumbling pass that I have wanted to be able to do since the first time I saw it. I chose this story because it is probably the most exciting moment in my entire cheerleading career.
