Well I got my groove back! As I said in my last blog, I haven't hooped in awhile and so when I started hooping again I was getting frustrated. But the other day I finally got a couple tricks that I have been working on for awhile! I got the above the head hand spin and the shoulder toss I think it's called. It's the one where you are spinning the hoop on your hand and roll it across your back and toss it off your shoulder. I also kind of made an accidental combo off of the hand spin where I do the hand spin and then bring it down to a reverse escalator where I then bring it back up to an escalator. It was completely accidental but it looks so cool! Continuing with the topic of hooping, my grandparents finally got to see me hoop in person. Because I live in Wisconsin they were only able to see me hoop in videos because I started hooping about the time that it was starting to get cold. But now I was finally able to go home and bring my hoop so I could show them. They were pretty impressed :) I'm just happy I got my flow back! I'm hoping to hoop all the time this summer with my friend Emily. She's really been improving a lot! I keep watching her Instagram videos and trying to learn some of the cool things that she does. I love having a friend to help me learn and to encourage me when I start to feel kind of down and frustrated with my hooping. I don't know what I would do without her sometimes! I swear we are like the same person! I can't wait till I can get more into a schedule where I can just hoop and journal and write because those are something that I've been kind of slacking on and my mood has been kind of sour because of it. I really need to keep those positive things in my life. Well I'm about to pass out due to lack of sleep. Goodnight lovelies ^_^
