I have been a dancer since I was a little girl and I've always loved being in the spotlight. When you're a cheerleader, you get to be on top of everyone else all the time, it's so empowering.
But there are definitely some downsides. People don't take me seriously because I'm just a "cheerleader". They think I'm just pretty and stupid, not smart or capable. And sometimes the guys on the team can be really creepy, always trying to hit on me even though we're supposed to be professional.
But being a cheerleader is so much more than just shaking your pom-poms and looking cute. It's about representing our school and showing our team spirit. We work hard to make sure every game is fun for everyone involved, from the players to the crowd. And when you're out there on that field or court, it feels like nothing else matters. You're just living in the moment, performing at your best, and giving everything you have. And that's what I love about being a cheerleader.
