OT You know you're a cheerleader when...

[D&Bcheerleader]

When you and your sister are at the cheer gym everyday, and all the sudden the head coach kicks both of you out of the gym because you have pink eye, you argue that it is not an excuse to miss practice, and you promise you will sit out if thats what it takes to stay for practice, but are still told to go home, and then cry over missing one practice...and you both agree it was the worst day ever just because you missed one practice. Then you convince mom to let you go to practice the next day at another gym, and complain to the 2 coaches there about the head coach kicking you out of practice the day before, and they just laugh.

when you stunt with your sister in the grocery store because both of you are too short to reach something and the other people in the aisle are looking at you like youre crazy
