Okay I know its been waaay too long!
I'm sorry :( I recently got my tonsils out and I have been really sick but I'm going to update this as much as possible now!

2008 American Cup

Jordyn Weiber wins - shocker <>
Bit of a scam really. To be honest, I'm not a big fan of her but she is an incredible gymnast! A 2.5 on vault?! I mean she isn't even a senior! It's crazy! She is going to have to train carefully if she doesn't burn out.

I was kind of hoping Bridget would win because she really deserved a chance to shine! Her floor was great but I prefer the old choreography! I think her bars was a little underscored, they were great, the only thing that annoys me is how she always flexes her feet on her release moves.


Oh and I was really happy that Fabian Hambuechen won, especially after the rough time he had at the Olympics! Great to see that he is back and better than ever, he is one of my favourite gymnasts!


European Championships

Fabian wins again! YAY! :) I was soo happy when I heard he won! Hope to see him get a few more golds at Worlds this year!


Ksenia wins too! I love her, defiantly one of my favourite gymnasts! Her new floor routine is beautiful, she defiantly had the best choreography of everyone in the competition! I hope to see her do well at Worlds this year too.


It was also great to see Beth get golds on floor and bars, she really deserved them especially on bars. It must have been so frustrating doing the hardest bar routine in the World and coming 4th at the Olympics. Can't wait to see her at Worlds too!




Yes I know I have been mentioning Worlds a lot but I'm so excited because I'm going to see it for my birthday this year, I can't wait! It's going to be amazing! :)


In other news, I am starting back at gymnastics after taking a two-year break and I'm soo excited! I'm probably not starting back until September but it's better than nothing! I quit because I had loads of injuries and I didn't think it was worth all the suffering, but then I realised how much I missed it and then the Olympics really inspired me to continue! I can't wait, I have been training really hard at home to get back in shape and it is really helping! I hope to make the Irish National team and who knows maybe I will even make it to Worlds or the Olympics someday. I know it's a long shot but I dream BIG!


Anyway enough about me..be back soon :)

Laters ;)
