East Coast Stamina 9 - Lower: 3rd Overall / 1st Female

Now that I'm getting back on my feet after East Coast Stamina 9, I guess it's about time I share the video of my set and post about how I did!

As for results, I placed:

-3rd out of 58 overall in Lower. (In reality, I'd say this means I was 21st place out of 76, as there were 18 people in Upper.)

-1st place female out of 14 in Lower. (Amy was the only female in Upper, so this should technically place me 2nd female out of 15.)

My ECS9 set this past Saturday literally floored me. I gave it all I had, finishing my 7 song max/1 hour set with one 19 and six 18s. (I'm used to taking longer breaks between songs when I play, so this was as much as I could've demanded of myself.) Though the support I got from Sean Gee and friends in the Twitch chat and elsewhere was what really inspired me to push through the pain, my biggest achievement was unquestionably not quitting when times got tough, and ooohhhhhh did they ever! The FA (well, lack thereof) says it all. 😂 Anyway, MASSIVE thanks to Sean for playing coach and supporting me, Jean-Philippe Moal for the song recommendations when I needed them most, Ian Pyles and all the other contributers for making this all possible, and all the friends who messaged and joined in on Twitch to hang with us and cheer me on. Maybe if you guys cheer harder next year, I'll do a set of solid 20s or 21s. 😝❤
