if i could, i would change my username to pipergymnast11. so think of me as that. :]



GYMNASTICS. <333
it's un-like any other sport.
somewhere during the 14 years
that i've been doing this undescribably challenging
yet beautiful & graceful sport,
it became way more than just a sport
that i'd do in my free time.
it became my passion.
it became my addiction.
it became my love.
it became my release.
it became my escape from life.
it's what i crave.
it's what keeps me sane.
it's what i look forward to everyday.
it's what makes me happy.
it's what makes me, me.
it's the one good thing i have in my life.
i live for everything that is in this sport.
i can't even fathom my life without it.
& all of this,
dosen't even come close to
describing how i feel about this sport.
it's way more than just a sport.
it's my purpose.
it's everything.
IT'S MY LIFE.
& i wouldn't have it any other way.




so that's all basically the jist of my life.
other than that, i'm a first year student and gymnast at hamline unversity in st. paul minnesota. i love gymnastics with all of my being. i've been doing it for 14 years.

i miss california like crazy, but i love minnesota as well. when i'm in california, i miss minnesota and when i'm in minnesota, i miss california. it's a weird thing.

i love all of my friends to death. old and new and even the ones i haven't met yet. i'm very thankful to have met such amazing people and to have them in my life no matter how close we are.

family is also very important to me. although we've had some issues, i still love them with all of my heart. i have no reason not to. my mom, stepdad, brothers, grandparents, and uncle are my heroes.

i also love montages, even though i haven't made some for a while. i have no time anymore now that i've started college. also, i feel that making montages is a type of competition now, rather than something that people do just for the fun of it. so i don't feel i should take part in that. i make montages, when i have time, for the fun of it.

i don't have a favorite gymnast. i look up to all of those who give 200% to reach their goals and dreams, whatever they may be. although, i do love the rare gymnast with a great toe point, elegance, and dance ability.

i plan to major in exercise and sport science in order to pursue a career in physical therapy and hopefully merge that with owning my own gym and coach.

i'm really curious how gym is going i was going through the same thing as you and feel the same way about gymnastics.. i'm actually not doing very well without practicing 5 hrs a day. im not even practicing 2 days a week and i am so out of gymnastics shape. i was a 10 and got injured my sr year and now have no idea what to do with myself. it was my life and now it's gone. i do want to start training again but im just so out of shape idk.. but i LOVE it. so anyways just wondering if ur still doing it and if you are going to do it in college.
