My Lucky Day

By Karlee

I was at a poms competition.  “Are we next?” asked Kayly.  “Yes, we are next,” I said.  Good because this uniform is not very comfortable, it is like we are in jail, because this is how I think they feel when they go to jail.  I hate this uniform too, but Ashley likes them!  “I know she does,” said Kayly sadly.

I think Ashley is right.  I don’t think I know if she is coming.  “Are you all warmed up?” asked Ashley.  “Yes we are,”  we shouted.  “O.K., you are right after the Power Poms.”    “Are you nervous?” asked Miranda.  “Because I am a lot.”  “I can see that,” I said.  “Good luck, I will be on stenter”, said Ashley. 

Then the announcer said, “Introducing the Germantown Pixie Dust!”  The crowd goes wild!  We walked on stage.  We got in our beginning formation.  The music started.  Once I hear the music, I know what to do.  Before I even know it I am in my ending pose. 

I was breathing so heavy that I stopped smiling!!  Can you believe that?  I stopped smiling and I was in the front row.  There was a lot of people there too.  All of a sudden, I hear thunder.  It started to pour.  But, it was over in two minutes.  “Thank you God,” I thought.  I felt very scared because the competition might be done.  But, it was not.  So, the competition was going again.
