State Powerlifting Meet: a detailed description into my mind

State meet is coming almost here. There s so much to worry about. Also, so much to be good about. What happens if I don't get my weight? Coach B has told us that someone will mess up at the meet. Will it be me? Will I embarrass myself and the team? Relax. I shouldn't be worrying. I'm great at this. I've also improved so much over the year. I now am squatting, recently, 155 pounds. That is crazy. I mean the weight on the bar is huge, immense. Then, dead lift, on of the best lifts I can do. What if Coach B wants me to do 300 pounds? I mean, he wanted me to do 285 at the last meet and even that was an insane weight. 300 pounds will be crazy for me to do. But, I feel confidant I could make it. The thing that's worrying me most, though, is bench press. At regionals I failed it. I couldn't lift 120. Why? It was all about positioning. All I'm saying is that I hope to get 135 pounds for bench press. Can I make it? Remember: pull down AND back, place it on your sternum, breath in and out SLOWLY, back arched, and feet flat on the floor, under you. If I can do those three things correct, I'll make the weight. Hopefully, this meet will be fine. I can do it!!
