All-Star Best Excuses To Miss Practice...

[cupieqt]

When Twilight came out one of our team moms called and said her daughter was not going to be at practice because she was going to the midnight showing.....they practiced from 7-9 and it was the week before a competition!!! When we told the mom that her daughter would not compete she said that will break her daughters heart but understands....she still took her daughter to the movies.

Oh. My. God.
Winner winner chicken dinner

Why did she need to miss practice? Were the tickets not available to be prebooked so they needed to get there really early? Also I don't get why people NEED to go to a midnight showing (or why they exist in the first place), don't get me wrong I like Twilight and everything but I don't understand why people get so obsessed about any type of book/movie series.

They got the tickets early...but made a night out of it....they went and got hair and nails done, had dinner then went to the movies. I had a long talk with the mom and told her how she is hurting the team by not showing up...she said her daughter wants to have a life outside of cheerleading....I said maybe this is it the sport for her....that was her first and last time cheering.

We had 4 girls who got tickets early for breaking dawn for the midnight showing. A few days before we learned that our school was going to be having a news station come and shoot us having a 4am pep rally. So we had to schedule practice the night before. They ended up going to practice, then the midnight showing, then went to the pep rally at 3am to warm up and still had to go through school the next day. They were all up for way over 30 hours.

I know of a girl who missed the last competiton before Battle at the Capitol b/c she went shopping at the mall with her mom and "lost track of time".... I guess she also left her phone at home since she failed to answer any of the text messages or calls made to her that nite.. Needless to say she was no longer on the team......

Last year this girl on my team was always late. One day she was super late and didn't call. When she finally came in, she sat down on the floor and ate her dinner!! Seriously!! :banghead:

I know its not the same as my mom getting married but i missed my cousins wedding to go to a competition and got back in town for like the last hour of the reception and showed up in my makeup and uniform and hair up because i was not about to attempt getting changed in a car full of people and in the dark!!!! yet there was a person who almost didn't go to this competition because she had a basketball game. I also drive 45 minutes to practice and theres people that live farther that never come because they dont feel like sitting in the car so they say their sick. If you dont wanna make the drive dont cheer or go somewhere closer!

I did this for my brothers wedding, It was my first ever comp and It had be planned for months and his wedding date got set after, so I only made the end of the reception all curled high pony and skirt.
