Hello all!

Equation for a super stressful but productive week= FINALS (dead week) + 17 amazing SWG gymnasts + positive attitudes + determination + confidence galore + superb work ethic + downright hotness. Yes, this is what we do. We study, we practice, we exude confidence in and out of the gym, and we have fun despite the stress that may accompany those oh-so-dreadful final examinations. Though this week consisted of voluntary workouts, each and every one of the "ridiculously good looking" members of SWG went to practice to escape briefly the schoolwork and prepare for our first meet of the season on January 13th. Coming off of our intersquad on Sunday, we were all eager to fine-tune those small details and add some new big tricks. Unfortunately, we were not all together at the same time, but I was lucky enough to see Purnell strut her stuff and throw HUGE full in's off the air floor. Tabbs is working on a new floor routine that simply defines dance and love of this art. Get excited. :) T's doing double backs off of beam and Fee's working those awesome double pike dismounts; big tricks all around. These are just a few of the many great things happening in the gym.

In addition to all of this excitement, the holiday season creates such a joyous atmosphere and makes me appreciate all of the wonderful people surrounding me. Peace and love to all. Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful season. Well, that's about it for now. Thanks for checking in. Yeahhhhh Card!
