The big slate grey building rose up
in front of me. My hair was pulled into a tight pony-tail wrenching at my scalp
as if it was trying to break free of my hair band, which was stretching
dangerously like it was going to snap any moment. I gazed up at the gigantic
sign. It read ‘Omni gym’ in red and blue lettering with a picture of a stick
person, but fatter, doing the splits. I will never be able to do that I said
awe struck. I was really nervous. I had wanted to make a good impression so I
had been rushing around earlier trying to be ready on time, perfect hair
perfect outfit, it had just right but mum just told me “slow down! It will be
fine” but it didn't feel like that to me. I slowly trudged up the bumpy path,
across saturated grass and up to the big glass door. Inside I could see people
running about and jumping around on trampolines. I took a deep breath, creaked
open the door and wandered in. bursts of noise greeted me uproariously. “5:30
class!” called an instructor. It was my group. I looked at mum and whispered
“wish me luck…” and ran to meet my new gymnastics group.
