Back in the cheering squad

The last time I was part of a cheering squad was in 1996, and I was very apprehensive about joining the cheer-dance competition this year. What I was expecting was the pain from all the snappy movements needed for the 10-minute performance... and I wasn't wrong. After a few hours of learning the steps, I started to feel fatigued; my toes were having cramps! That what I got for not warming up before the practice, and not cooling down after. Hmmph...

Rehearsals were first held under a mango tree. Since the sun was still out, and before practice started, I took the time to shoot some pictures of the cheering squad hanging around near the Hemmi building parking lot... before they started to feel all the aches. Hehe.

I wasn't alone with the aches... my office-mates, Ana and Lucy, also complained of painful muscles. But the nice thing was that after today's practice session, the muscles weren't as painful.
