Failed again :(

This happened awhile ago but still... I tried out for majorettes and I got cut.. But there was 6 spots open... 9 girls tried out.. 8 girls made it.. Im the ONLY ONE WHO DIDNT MAKE IT... And a girl in my group made it.. So did this one girl I talk to sometimes ((( thing is, I love baton.. So much...

What did you learn? Did you ask what you could have done differently? Would you treat a friend the way you are treating yourself?

Hi xx tpm-life xx

I'm so sorry, I'm guessing you're feeling really "down", dissappointed and rejected right now??
But just because you didn't make it in doesn't have to reflect on you, there's a lot more about you than the results of a try out
And I wouldn't say failed anyway...........much more things just didn't work out this time..........what you did was to put yourself out there and try, which is an big achievement in itself..........and things may not always work out at times...........but that ability...........the one to put yourself out there and try, can sometimes take you so far, to places you'd never get to without it. So honestly, xx tpm-life xx, real kudos and respect for that!!!

And.........you have a passion, the baton...........please don't let this experience cloud your enjoyment of that, doesn't matter one iota what the judgement on your skills was.........if you enjoy it..........that is all that matters..........keep on doing it for you...........keep on enjoying it...........passions can be real precious, and the opinions of other people aren't worth losing them for.........GO YOU!!!!
