So this picture is probably one of my favorite pictures from my senior year. I was on the cheer team all four years of high school, and the captains every year were three seniors who were voted on by the team, with the coach having the final say. However, there were four girls who were taken seriously enough to fill the captain position, so one of the girls would have been upset if she wasn't made captain. Unfortunately, that girl was me. I would've been fine with it if the captains benefited the team, but they made the entire year all about themselves. Cheering at football games was always my favorite part of the cheer season, but I hated it senior year. This particular game was annoying to cheer at and just not a fun time, so I was in a bad mood after the game ended. Everyone would always go on the field after games and talk to each other. I was talking to my friends, and this little girl who I didn't even know came up to me. She said that I was her favorite cheerleader and told me that I inspired her to start cheering. It literally made my whole night. Then, she asked to get a picture with me and she was just so excited. With that being said, this picture obviously makes me really happy. I think my body looks kind of awkward though. I don't know how to take pictures with little kids because I'm not really a "kid" person. The mood of this picture is happy. I think it's easy to see that I'm genuinely smiling and that the little girl is excited.
