IL State Champs Results for Black Sheep

[Black Sheep]

I brought home two medals today: Silver (out of 3) for my Gold FS program, and Bronze for my Interp. program. Seems I'm back on the "plus side", and I am happy! :D 8-) :D 8-) :D

Annabel, what happened? :(

edited to say: Oops, I read about it on the other thread. That's too sad.

Way to go Blacksheep!8-)

Annabel, you really are an inspiration, no matter what the placement.
It's just great to read about someone who obviously just loves to skate. That's really what it's all about.

And might I add, it was a well-skated event...in all four events (Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Interp). No falls or major errors by anyone. And my medal matched my costume! Yay!

After competing, I went to a mall near the rink for some Christmas shopping. It's a rather upscale mall (Nieman-Marcus, bebe, Betsey Johnson, etc.), and I stayed in my skating clothes, complete with sparkly stars in my hair and body shimmer. I have a rather youthful appearance (when I'm skate guarding, people ask me which one of the local high schools I go to. :lol: ), so I was prepared for the worst. However, I was treated wonderfully, even with the usual pre-Christmas bustle.
