14.) I wear flip flops till it snows.

OK ME TOO AND EVERYBODY THINKS IM CRAZY. I'll even wear flip flops when there's snow on the ground if I'm not walking far and the sidewalks are mostly shoveled. Hoodie, leggings, and flip flops is my default.


I'm like 99% sure I did this before and I 100% refuse to look at what I wrote because I know it's probably embarrassing.

Once the snow hits I switch to my "ugg" boots even though they aren't really Uggs bc I'm not spending that much money on boots to wear in the snow. The ones I used to have were black sequin. Lol. Yep I wore them to cheer comps but they were so comfy. I wore them to the bus stop and to the grocery store. I didn't care. I'm so mad bc I left them in a hotel at the end of last cheer season!

15. If I don't like the way I write something... I'll erase it multiple times until I feel it looks the way It should.
I do the same thing!!! I'll also get irritated with how I write a certain letter sometimes so I'll teach myself to write it in a new style till it becomes second nature...
 
Congrats!!!!! I had a c/s with non-CP; if they haven't already told you, wrap your stomach. It helps so, so much when moving around and walking. I also never had to use a pillow to cough.

Thank you!! What did you use to wrap? Right now it's still pretty sore if there's too much pressure on it. I had to change into basketball shorts because the regular shorts with a belly band was a little too much pressure.

I used a Moby wrap. I'm on the taller side but I'm being literal when I say I wrapped from right under my breasts to the end of my butt. I kept mine super tight because I felt more put together and it made moving around and getting up easier. I know some who only use like a belly band; I tried that and didn't feel supported enough. I'd try a few things to see what works best for you. I kept it up until about week 3 and then only used it when I really needed it. The plus side was I got my flat stomach back really fast; I think I have a picture of me at only like 4 weeks post partum in my normal shorts from pre-pregnancy.

I'll look into that--thank you!! Something longer will probably be better for me because the belly band was pretty short so in order for it to cover the part of my shorts it was supposed to, it didn't even make it up to my belly button. So a longer wrap would probably be more sensical. Thanks again!!

I still don't feel like an adult either sometimes... And come on over to the West Coast... We have ranch dressing with everything and WAY too much sunshine!

I had a wrap the doctor gave. In retrospect it wasn't the best but I didn't know about wrapping with my first c/s and only learned about it with the second when it was suggested. It did hurt a lot at first putting it on, but it helped me stop hurting faster! Didn't give a flat stomach, but like I said, probably not the best option.
 
  1. I can’t stand to have miss labeled files on my computer, all documents/pictures titles have to be topical.
  2. I hate when there are songs/albums with thumbnails in my iTunes category so I always manually add one if necessary.
  3. I prefer Coke over Pepsi any day.
  4. I recently became a Godfather!
  5. I’m pursuing one of those worthless degrees in Communication emphasizing in Media Studies.
  6. I throw shade 24/7.
  7. I I plan to head to cosmetology school soon after completing my Bachelor’s.
  8. I currently regret not majoring in Digital Marketing.
  9. I have horrible luck.
  10. I have absolutely zero coordination, Im surprised I’ve made it this far tbh.
  11. I love cheerleading, I just don’t think it loves me back.
  12. Beyonce is my all time favorite artist, and will argue for hours with those who disagree.
  13. In 21 years the most important thing I have ever learned is that everything isn’t always worthy of a response.
  14. I fear daily something horrible will happen to my mother, she is bae.
  15. I hate mayonaise.
  16. I drown everything in hot sauce, I also it believe it gave me acid reflux.
  17. I have a weird obsession with backpacks, wallets, and phone cases.
  18. My ultimate goal is to work in education administration and coach a budding powerhouse high school cheer squad (UCA style)
  19. I regret starting cheer so late.
  20. Unfortunately I have picked up a random expensive sneaker addiction.
  21. I can’t sing but I am always singing loudly.
  22. I live on Youtube, I follow mostly family vlogs.
  23. I have always been told I should start a YT channel. I even bought a powerful DSLR to do so but I feel like its just awkward.
  24. I am the funniest person I know hands down, I favorite my own tweets to reminisce later on.
  25. I plan on designing my very cheerleading uniform with my personal idea colors, theme, style, and team/ gym names just to put it in a shadow box to marvel at it.
I am so with you on #18 but I'd want to revamp a struggling program. And definitely start a YT channel. The sooner you do, the better.
 
I posted an original 25 facts way back when the thread was new, but things have changed since then so here goes...

1. I really love Texas and theres a chance I will permanently live here
2. Or at least for a few years after I graduate college and have a resume going for me, then maybe move back to California (SoCal specifically)

4. I miss cheer a lot, but at the same I don't, it's weird
5. I'm a junior in college, but still only 19 and won't be 20 until the end of november
6. I remember senior year of high school applying to Baylor and then being waitlisted because they didn't get my transcripts on time, and then a few days later receiving a phone call from the admissions office saying I was admitted--easily one of the best days for me
7. Same thing as above happened with nursing school, transcripts weren't there on time--waitlisted--then accepted a few days later so yay I'll be starting in January
8. I'm living with two random girls this year and don't know them that well still, but one of them has the cutest cat
9. I've gone to the gym four days in a row this week and have been eating better, so that's a big deal for me
10. This is a lot harder than I anticipated/also makes realize how uninteresting my life is

20. I really love any excuse to dress up
21. My favorite color is pink
22. I never cared about football until going to Baylor, sic 'em forever, and waiting on a 3peat of big 12 champs!
23. I'm double jointed in my shoulders and my thumb
24. I'm still pretty flexible for bascially never stretching anymore, and can still do the splits and pull heel stretches
25. I'm not artistic whatsoever, but I still like crafting (because who in a sorority doesn't)
My right shoulder is double jointed as well!
 
My right shoulder is double jointed as well!
I think I might be too? When stretching my shoulders behind my neck (if you know what I mean), I can get them to make this loud popping sound. Not sure if that means I'm double jointed or just broken from cheerleading.
