I have been hooping about three months and have been doing it 3-5 times a week for 30-60 minutes depending on how tired I was or not.  I hit a brick wall for abit, but finally, finally (!) started getting the hang of chest hooping.  Good things ahead!

I'm sure many of you know what it's like to carry around your hoop (collapsed or otherwise) and people ask what it was.  When you ask, many times they want to see stuff.  So today my German professor asked me to show the class some tricks.  Egads!

I have no problem speaking in public, but performing was something else.  I dropped the hoop every few seconds, and didn't get anything done I wanted to try.  I felt like a boob. An hour earlier I was barefoot in the grass with a ton of students staring and I just didn't care.  Tricks were working, I was really connected to the hoop, but in this case I rocked the suck.

I thought it might be fun to talk about our embarrassing hoop moments or similar experiences.  I'm not particularly upset, but embarrassed.  Gosh darn you dastardly hoop.

I also went to the doctor a few weeks ago for cauliflower ear from my hoop giving me a good bashing in the head!  It's not just bruises we get! Also have had my shirt catch and get lifted up with the hoop.  But boobies are no crying matter anyhow. :p
