Mom and Dad drove me up to the ice rink in West Valley (I think). I competed at 7:52 and they were just a bit ahead of schedual. So as I waited to go on I walked around with my coach and kept lifting my knees to my chest. Instead of competing against one other it ended up being two other girls. Both of their routines were more upbeat in the tempo as where mine is more of a slow romantic song. During the warm up I decided I did not like the Ice at the rink, it was hard to get a grip of it with my blades.
The first time not on home ice is a little nerve racking. Though I tried my best, every thing went smoothly, I ended a few seconds ahead but quickly and gracefully fixed that. Once as I stepped off the ice we felt satisfied with what I did. It was a very enjoyable experience. In the End I got 2nd place, this I was very content with, considering it is my favorite routine at the moment. 
The trophy we received are really cool, the expense to be in this competition paid for the trophies and the pictures too. Any way the Trophies are rectangular and glass, they are very pretty!! 
I really enjoyed this competition.
