Dear diary,

September 18

Today was the worst game ever! Why do people have to be so mean? So there's this girl named Payton on the squad, she is the meanest girl I know. I dread going to practice because I know she will be there. She yells and embarrasses me in font of the crowd. She will talk about me behind me back to everyone on the squad. I HATE IT! Well, I have to get some sleep for tomorrow's practice, goodnight.

Wish me luck. I’m about to go to practice… This was the best practice ever! You know why it was so good? Because she was not there. I feel practice goes so much smoother when she is not here. Enough about her, We got to work on a really cool stunt today! It’s Called a Helicopter. We throw the girl in the air and she spins around like a helicopter. Then, we putter into a half and she flips over the other person! That's enough for tonight, goodnight.

Last night we performed at the fair, and if i may say we rocked! It was so fun. All of our stunts hit and we were sharp on all our dances. Since we did so great last night we get to perform at the pep rally on Friday! I'm sorta scared because we have to perform in front of the whole student body! Wish me luck!

I did it. Today i stood up and told payton to stop being so mean. It feels good not being bullied anymore. And hopefully she won't bully anyone else. It all happened at the game yesterday. She was talking about me behind my back literally behind my back! I had just decided that i had had enough. So i turned around and said “Why do you have to be so mean? You are a big bully to almost everyone on this team. You yell at people because you say they are not doing it right when you are the one who is wrong. When you say you can’t hear me during a cheer it’s because your back is turned and that's a barrier for sound. So stop being mean to people. Words can really hurt people. So next time you want to talk trash about me, think before you speak.” Enough drama for now talk later.
