3 Down, 8 to go!

On Tuesday May 5th, we canceled our recreational bike ride and stayed in Nicholson Pavilion to work on our circus arts. Doc Mathias said that we could even begin testing out on some of the skills if we felt that we were ready for them. I knew that juggling wasn't my thing but I got an intermediate routine down with the scarves and went and tested and passed. That was my first thing down. I then practiced my flowersticks for a good 40 minutes before taking my skills test with them. I got five skills done in 30 seconds which was good enough for the advanced level! For the last part of class I figured I would practice my unicycling skills since I wasn't very good at it. I could not have guessed what would happen next......with my spotters Drew and Shane, I successfully made it the whole length of the gym without falling off to get an intermediate mark in unicycling! I was so happy I couldn't stand it and now had 3 of the skills test completed and have 8 more left to do.
