  • Nervous About Cheer-leading Tryouts...?

    So, I just learned recently that I have high school cheerleading tryouts this upcoming Monday-Friday. And ever since then, I have been a nervous wreck, not eating as much as I used to and constantly having a nervous stomach. I hadn't really practiced much of the jumps or stunts, but I have been stretching and dancing for months to get in shape. I'm known as a shy person, and I don't have a high self esteem. But it has been my dream to be a cheerleader ever since I was little, and i've skipped out on tryouts for the past 4 years from being to scared to give it a try. And if I give up again, i'm going to regret it for the rest of my life.

    What should I do to keep from feeling so nervous so I can make it through the next week?

  • Stretching to do splits?

    So, I've been stretching since November 6th to become more flexible. Right now i'm focusing on my splits. At first I wasn't sore at all, now I can't seem to go as far as I used to because my legs are really sore. Does this mean it's working, or have I been over stretching? Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks^^

  • How long does it take to do splits?

    So, my cheerleading tryouts got post-poned until further notice, so it's given me time to stretch to do my splits. I've been stretching for 11 days now, and my legs are very sore when I stretch them. Two weeks ago I stretched twice a week, and last week i've stretched 3 times for about 1 hour each day. Am I over stretching? If you can do splits, how long did it take you to get them? Also, if I take a break for a few days, will I have lost all of my progress? (I'm 16 btw.)

  • What are cheerleading tryouts like?

    Hello, i'm a sophomore in high school and i'm thinking about trying out for cheerleading soon. I'm working on my flexibility before tryouts comes, but I was wondering what are tryouts like? What are you expected to learn and how can you perform them properly? Also, i'm very nervous about making up my own cheer and performing it in front of everyone (since i'm a shy person). And tips would be helpful. Thanks~

  • How do you become a cheerleader?

    Hello, I know cheerleading tryouts have passed, but I've been wondering this for a while now. I'm a sophomore in high school, and i've wanted to become a cheerleader ever since I was a little girl. But it seems as if no matter how much it, I could never become a cheerleader because i'm too shy to tryout. I've heard you had to come up with your own routine, perform it in front of the judges and other cheerleaders/people trying out, and face a possible elimination. I work confidently with others and wouldn't mind cheerleading with everyone else. But my biggest fear is having to perform in front of everyone in order to pass tryouts. I'm not completely sure if this is the way most schools do it, but how do you become a cheerleader? Are there any requirements? How do you get through tryouts? Any advice would be very helpful.

  • How to join high school dance team?

    Hello, I was wondering what the High school dance try outs are were like. I think it's already passed, since they performed at the pep rally today. But what are they like? Are there any requirements that you need to have? Do I have to come up with my own routine and perform in front of everyone (like cheerleading)? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks~

  • Regaining faith in God?

    I've been a Christian since I was little. Over the years, I felt my relationship with God has become stronger and I was very happy and secure with my life. But about 2-3 months ago, my faith in God was beginning to vanish. I figured i'd regain it soon enough. But it has only gotten worse. I've noticed now i'm very unhappy and feel lost in the world. (I've never been this upset in my life.) Part of me is questioning God's existence, while the other still has faith and wants to continue my Christian journey. I'm 16 now, so hopefully i'll regain my faith and become a true Christian once again. How do I regain my faith in God? How can I know for sure he's real? How has he helped you in your life?

    WARNING: If you DON'T believe in Jesus Christ and are here to say he doesn't exist, you click the BACK button and answer someone else's question. Your "opinion" will only make me feel worst.

  • Constipation... Please Help?

    I'm almost 15, and i've been having constipation problems for longer than a year. I used to have 1 normal bowel movement a week. But in March I just stopped having them. My Dad took me to the Doctor and I started taking this medication called "Clearlax". After 3 or 4 days of using it, I started having bowel movements every day. When I finished using it, I was still doing fine a few days later. But shortly afterward, I stopped having bowel movements! Now I can barely go when I try. I would take this other laxative every 3-4 days and now they don't even work! I've been eating more fruits and vegetables, fiber, drinking 5-8 cups of water a day and nothing is working. I'm too afraid to eat anything and I only eat once a day now. Please help me T_T

  • Stores to shop at for teens...?

    I'm almost 15 and I need help finding new clothing stores. I would like to have different clothes in my wardrobe. I'm getting tired of wearing aeropostal since it's all I wear. (Really, almost all the shirts I wear are from aeropostal.) Can someone give me a list of stores that I could try out? I'd appreciate it. Thanks :)
