Despite the mess that has been going on in my life, I have been working really hard on my final project for this sports class. Jen and I wanted to do a story on the Columbia College Chicago Cheerleaders but when we realized that that story wasn't going to work out, I came up with a couple of other things for us to do.
The church that I attend have youth dancers that dance to stay off the street, I left several messages but I've gotten no response back yet. I even tried to do a story on the high school that I attend, where I ran track and they have an excellent track and field team that goes to state and nationals. I wanted to do a story about their social life because when I ran track it was known stop, it was practice directly after school for three hours, homework and class assignments had to always be done, school attendants was a must, weekend training was a must, summer training was a must, early practice before school was sometimes required; so I wanted to do a story that all athletes can relate to with a twist.
Unfortunately I left the principal a couple of messages, I talked to the main office receptionist and the athletics office and the OK had to come through the principal, just my luck, while waiting for three days, they went on Spring Break Friday!
The good side to all of this would be that we have a story that we have been working on for days and its going really well!!!
