WHAT IS BLOG

Hi the 3 of you that actually follow me.
so homecoming was last night and dude shit was fun.  half my friends were drunk and i honestly don't care.  it was fun.  i grinded like shit.  had an awesome time

BUT two of my best friends are mad at each other and I don't like it.  I don't know 100% of what happened, but let's accept the fact that things that were said weren't meant and booze does shit to people.  Move on PLEASE because you guys are best friends and it makes me sad to see yall arguing like this.

But yeah, losta fun.  Kinda got pulled into my guy friends crotch while grinding but whateves i dunn currr

FUCK IT WE'RE SENIORS

wish I could do it again

I'm gonna be honest.  I really wish I could have just randomly made out with some guy.  Whateves though.

What is Blogging?

Yeah, I suck, but here's an update of what I've been up to...

Moves: Passed Prelim on Friday!!!! AT LAST  Now onto scarier and pickier judges. ;A;

Dance: Andy said that my Cha Cha is ready to test, but when that will actually get done is another question.  My mom likes when I can test a level at a time, but I kinda want to get this done?  Fiesta Tango's end pattern is mehhhhhhhhhh.  And Swing.....it's okay????  IDUNNO MAN

Jumps

Salchow: Focusing on getting more height to get ready for a double.  Trying to control my landing better and sink over my foot. In combo with toe and loop

Toe Loop: I FIXED MY TECHNIQUE FINALLY!!!  Now Evelyn just wants me to jump up more. In combo with toe and loop....kinda

Loop: kjlfagkljfgajfkdlhfdljkgh it's consistent and I can do 2 in a row.  I'm happy.  In combo with toe and loop.

Flip: Having problems getting my leg to cross, so Evelyn gave me the whole Mr. Green schpeil, and it kinda helped? idk man. In combo with toe 

Lutz: I'M ACTUALLY LANDING IT HOLY SHIT.  Evelyn wants me to just focus on landing it right now, saying we can fix the flutzing later.

Axel:  I GOT IT OFF ICE!  I'm working on my on ice drills.  Needs to be quicker.

Overall, I need to stop dropping my left side and releasing the head.  

Spins

Back Scratch:  I actually got it good!  Whoo hoooooo

Sit: getting lower....not low enough, but lower; started working on features like the arms twist, tuck, and pancake

Camel: SO MANY FRUSTRATIONS LATELY HOLY SHIT LADKFKJDLFKLGAKLDJFHFKDLJH

Layback: Need to work on locking my free leg and holding the spin.  Started the side layback and it's scary as hell.

Biellmann: eh, it's getting there

Heeeeeeeeeello

so I suck at updating....


and my blog is fugly.....


SBT help me make it purty???


anyways, I've been hellllllla busy with the training and stuff.  And the switching club stuff.  Ah, skating y u so espensive?


No, seriously.  My home club membership is gonna be like $100 plus another $75 for volunteer buy out because my mom and I "don't have time".  Uhhhhhh I actually wanna be involved in this club.....  Like do club shows and go to fundraisers and get my name on my club jacket (which are amazing might I add!) and stuff.  YEESH MAMA.


Also, I'm tryin to test mah prelim moves in the field cause they so close right now and I have over a month to take care of em.


Also, I'm probably gonna start seeing a nutritionist for reasons....

Updato!

Okay, so Sasha is on spring break!!!! Whoooohooooo!!!!  This essentially means that I'm living at the rink.


I've been doing about 2 and a half hours a day, which is 2.5 times more than I normally do.  I was wiped out yesterday ahhhhh.  But anyway, update?  UPDATES


Jumps

• Waltz: perfect; fine; good spring
• Salchow: much better; actually checking after the 3 turn
• Toe loop: I'M STILL NOT SWINGING THROUGH UGHHHHHH; I get good height, but my technique is off.
• Loop: perfect; pretty consistent
• Flip: inconsistent; blahhhh
• Lutz: hahaha, no; I freak out with the counter rotation, but I'll get over it.
• Combos: lookin gooooood

Spins

• Scratch: kinda travelly sometimes, but it's good
• Back scratch: okay? it's getting better
• Sit: so close!  I almost have it all the way down to where it needs to be
• Camel: I keep dropping my free side but I'm averaging 5 revs
• Layback: need to work on going straight back and use my back flexibility
• Biellmann: SO CLOSEEEEE
• Haircutter: terrifying, but it's on its way
• Pancake: lose lowness, but I can do a good position while not spinning
• Tuck behind: good!
• Change foot: good!!

Dance

• Dutch waltz: good, when it is
• Canasta tango: good

• Backwards dance skating: pretty good for working on it for 2 days!

Sleeeeepy Sasha

I am so tired omggggg
but
it's spring break
and I'm getting frozen yogurt for dinner!!!!


Yeah, I spent my first day of spring break skating.  10-11 and then 3-4.  Then I learned how to do ice dance backwards.  IT'S HARD.  But you can cheat on pushes on progressives.  Like push-stretch, stretch, push-stretch.  NO 2ND PUSH HAHAHAAHAHAHHA.  


Oh yeah, so this was my morning session:
-Warm up!
-Waltz jump circle
-Single jumps! (except lutz)
-Combos! (except with flip and lutz)
^all decent
-Spins...uh no.


Then afternoon:
-ICE DANCE FOR A HALF HOUR, MUST MAKE THIS GOOD BEFORE COACH GETS HERE
-Do dances for coach
-Get corrected on things by said coach
-Learn back progressives, back chasses, back swing rolls
-Omg it's 4 already? O.o


And now I need to do core work.  I want abs man!!!  Meh, I'll stretch tomorrow.  I did some today.


And I get to skate alllll day Monday and Wednesday.  


Ice dance is actually kinda fun now.  Better than moves in the field. x.x


Okay, videos next time.....maybe

IJS can kiss my.........

My coach decided that I should start training more for IJS.  OMG PAINNNNNN IN ZE BUTT
I have to hold my spirals for really fuckin' long now ahhhhh.  Ok, so variations are fun but then there's also GOE shizz.  I hate GOE!!!!  Okay the creativity and originality part is fun but ahhh and that's only for spins!!!  Let it be known that I'm not a jumper. TT~TT  (But yeah, I did start my last single today but ahhhhhh)  Oh and this:

For spins there are 4 levels of difficulty. The level of difficulty is dependant on the number of features. You need to perform two features for level 2, three for level 3, and four for level 4.
1.	A difficult variation in a basic or (for spin combinations only) in an intermediate position
2.	Another difficult variation in a basic position which must be: ● spins in one position and flying spins – different than the first one ● all other spins – on different foot and/or in different position than the first one
3.	Difficult change of foot
4.	Backward entrance/Difficult variation of flying entrance/Landing on the same foot as take off or changing foot on landing in a Flying Sit Spin
5.	Both edges in one basic position (in any spin both edges count only once)
6.	All 3 basic positions (for spins with change of foot – on each foot)
7.	Both directions immediately following each other.
8.	At least 8 rev. without changes in pos./variation, foot or edge (camel, sit, layback, difficult upright), counts twice if repeated on another foot
Additional features for the Layback spin
9.	One change of position backwards-sideways or reverse, at least 3 rev. in each position
10.	Biellmann position after layback spin (SP – after 8 revolutions in layback spin) "When performing a spin in competition you can improve you score by achieving a higher grade of execution GOE. You can receive +1, +2, or +3 based on the number of bullets you achieve below. 1. Good control throughout (entry, rotation, change of foot, conclusion/exit) 2. Good speed or acceleration during spin 3. Balanced rotations (on different feet / in different positions or variations) 4. Clearly more than required number of revolutions 5. Superior position(s) (including air position in flying spins) 6. Creativity and originality"

Pissed Off Rant

When I ask you a question, I'm asking because I think you might, on the off chance, know.  You do not need to talk to me like I'm a moron.  You keep doing that and I am fucking sick of it.

I didn't go to MSA, so what?

I'm a girl, so what?

I'm blonde, so what?

I'm not "hot", so what?

I'm in a lower math than you because I chose to be, so fucking what?

You wonder why everyone hates you and it's because you think it's okay to fucking talk down to people if they don't fit your sexist, racist, elitist version of "smart".  You know what, AR?  I'm fucking done.

I do not work my ass off in school for this.  I do not stick with full IB for this.  I do not work my ass off outside of school for this.  And you di not deserve all the frustration and anger I skated out today.  

I am fucking done, AR, done.  You do it again, you will face the wrath of Sasha Elizabeth Colbert!!!!

Note: Not my real name

blahhhh

So I had my first competition this weekend.  I got 4th in the freeskate and won my spotlight!!!


But when I was working at the store's booth at the competition, I started feeling kinda sick.  So my mom brought me Advil and I felt better.  But on Sunday morning when I woke up I felt like ABSOLUTE SHIT.  My mom took me to the Urgent Care in the neighborhood and we found out that not only did I have a 102.2 fever, but I also had a case of Bronchitis or Bacterial Pneumonia. 


Luckily, the antibiotic has worked and I'm feeling better, but I had to miss my lesson today and miss out on extra hours at work and 2 DAYS of school.  Hopefully, I'll be able to have a lesson with my head coach on Friday before my dance lesson.  


Back to school tomorrow and the ice, but I'm gonna take it easy: moves and dance.  Then I'll try to freestyle on Thursday.

Singles Awareness Day = SAD...and hippos

So Valentine's day.....the day people act like mad hippos and go crazy for their loved ones.  Like 2 guys like the same girl and it turns into angry hippos!!!

Hippo 1: ARUGH U TAKE MI WOMAN
Hippo 2: YEAH, SO?
Hippo 1: I'M GOING TO KILL YOUR FACE


Then they fight until there's a winner and the winner gets to kiss the lady.

Then later there may come a baby.

But not for me.  I'm a forever alone hippo.....

Happy SAD Day.

Another Victory for the Almost Girl and Comebacks

So back in January, at US Nationals, Ashley Wagner FINALLY won her gold medal.  I mean, took long enough, judges, for you to give this girl what she righteously deserves. 

And not only is she the 2012 US National Champ, but she is now also the Four Continents Championship Ladies' Champ.  GO ASHLEY!!!! WHOOT WHOOT!!!!!!!!!!


Also chalking up a victory over the VANCOUVER OLYMPICS SILVER MEDALIST Mao Asada, winning with 192.41 over Asada's 188.62.




Also, something that's been on my mind for a loooooong time: Johnny Weir's and Plushenko's comebacks.


You may remember Johnny Weir as that one guy who's picture is in the dictionary next to "male figure skater stereotype".  

AKA this guy.  Now, I love Johnny, don't get me wrong, but he needs to STEP THE FUCK BACK and let others take the stands.  I'm genuinely concerned that this comeback is going to blow up in his face.  Like Sasha Cohen in 2010, BARELY missed the podium.  4th place under Ashley Wagner, Mirai Nagasu, and Rachael Flatt.  BARELY missing a 3rd Olympics.  

If you retire, just STAY THAT WAY, RETIRED.  Don't go and take the spotlight from everyone else.  Skating in shows, now that's fine, BUT IF YOU RETIRE FROM COMPETITION, STAY FUCKING RETIRED.

Now on to our favorite golden boy, EVENGI PLUSHENKO AKA PLUSHYYYYYY

Now, Plushy is looking for ANOTHER OLYMPIC MEDAL. Motherfucker, you already have 3 Olympic medals.  LET ONE OF THE RUSSIAN WONDERCHILDS SHINE.  He's going in for another gold, but he has a gold and 2 silvers!!!!!!!!!  

LET. OTHER. PEOPLE. SHINE.

Go strip back to retirement, Plushy.

Grammy Fashion is Weird

It seriously amuses me with how some people dress on the red carpet.

For example......

LADY GAGA YOU ARE NOT AN ALIEN.  Okay, normally I'm fine with Gaga's fashion sense except the meat dress which was just plain gross but this is a bit odd, even for her.  Despite the weirdness, I think it's a nice concept, but what are those shoes made of, bubble wrap??????

AND THE AWARD GOES TO MISS FRIZZLE!!!!  Seriously, doesn't Cyndi Lauper remind you of a certain teacher?  Yeah, the 80s were scary fashion-wise, but the Magic School Bus books weren't written until 1985.  WAY TO BE AHEAD OF TIMES

Okay, we all know that Brit has had her ups and downs but this was 2010, AFTER SHE HAD BEEN DOING BETTER that she decided to wear a swimsuit with a light cover up to the Grammy's.

WHY WERE THE 80s A THING?????????????????  Naomi and Wynonna Judd need to go back to mixing potions in their cave lair.

Aretha Franklin in 2003.  SNOW FAIRY PRINCESS.  That is all.

At least 1999 was slightly better than the 80s, but Madonna's bedazzled PJs may beg to differ.

And last, but certainly not worse.  Toni Braxton pretending to be Princess Leia.  WHITE VERSION OF THAT SLAVE OUTFIT EVERYBODY!!

So there are some of the worst best Grammy outfits ever that were featured in a yahoo news article that I found these on and had to share my commentary on them. 

Let's just see what is next for this year~~

herpaderp

So finally gave in and made a blogspot for more texty things than tumblr
