Okay I have my first REAL competition on Friday (I have participated in 2 club competitions in the past, but that is completely different, you are in groups of 3 and you know the people and it is judged by the other teen skaters)
I'm really freaked out about this. My coach told me that competing is a whole different ball park and I shouldn't expect anything spectacular, and that if I get in last great, if I get in first great, if I'm in the middle fantastic. Trust me, I'm not expecting much! I am against 7 other girls (around my age, which really freaks me out since I've only skated 3 years!)
Any advice on the nerves? I could use any advice you've got trust me!
& This is my new dress for the competition:

and you can't really tell in the picture but on the skirt it is kind of ruffled with these little sparkly gadgets :

It took me a long time to get a picture of that sparkly thing, the light kept reflecting off it and then it would be blurry! Lol. I'm hoping the dress looks good on the ice and with my hair colour (I'm a blondie!)
