3rd day of school, 9 days tell worlds!

Today was my third day of school and so far I love it. All my classes of being going great also. It is really weird not going back to highschool though, but im loving getting out of class at 10:30 and 11:30 everyday so that is a plus. It defiantly was weird coming onto the campus and not being there for a band event though. Everytime i have been on the campus before was for a Marching band competition so i defianlty brought back memories.
None of you probley know but Im a powerlifter. Im apart of the Team Idaho and Team USA powerlifting teams. Im a two time state and national champion and I made it onto the Sub-Junior USA team this year so Im pretty excited to accomplish a goal I had set for myself. This September 4th I will be traveling to Rebiero Preto-SP, Brazil to compete at the Sub-Junior world competition and I can't wait. Im ranked number one rite now and I have a great change of coming home with four gold medals and a world record. I will be keeping all my updates on here I guess now.=)
But there are some downs with mixing these two things in my life at the moment together that has been stressful. Both school and powerlifting are both very expensive. For both I have paid at least $3000 and it is stressful trying to come up with the money at times. Thankfully I have sponsers that love helping me out for worlds, or I probley wouldn't be going. On to the second down is I am going to have to miss 6 days of school. Now back in highschool i really didn't have to worry about it cause my teachers understood what was going on. Going into college I was scared out of my mind to go talk to my teacher about it. They have all been very resonable though. They are letting me turn in stuff early and letting me make it up when I get back. So I am very thankful for my teachers for helping me out with this.
Im super excited to get going in school and can't wait to see how everything turns out this year for powerlifting. So overall i think it is going to be a awesome year, but Im sure it will have its ups and downs. =D
