ups and downs!

Hello again it's me Mel,

Just recorded another Halenhagui vlog! I complained about how tired I was, and we both talked about our ups and downs.  Since I'm so tired, my brain is functioning at turtle speed.  I figured out that I left out so much.  Aside from right now, dealing with being sick and all.  I have to say one of my worst downs was in my 2008-09 season.  FACE PLANT, of my figure skating career. Let me tell you more about it, 2007-08 I broke top 8 at the US Championships, 2 solid programs, I was the alternate for 4 Continents, Worlds and Jr. Worlds. Very Bittersweet.  Then the next season I was given Junior Grand Prix, Italy, and came home with the Gold Medal. I soaked it all up and I guess I thought I won the Olympics. I had several celebratory meals and I was large and in charge for Belarus.  Threw everything away and ended up 18th. OUCH! I ran to my best friend, mr.refrigerator for comfort and he gave me no justice for Sectionals that year. I was flat out not in shape and I didn't make it to nationals, I was so heart broken.  Then and there I learned the hard way to be very humble about the small little victories that happen, and not to sulk.
