Compulsory Choreography

I've been messing around with the compulsory moves for the upcoming competition and I can do all of the elements just fine, I was just struggling putting it all together into a mini program. So, that's what we worked on for our lesson today. Basically, we are taking some of the elements from the free skate program and recycling them in a different order to create a whole new program for the compulsory moves. We only had a 20 minute lesson and he taught me the whole 1:30 program in that time. I didn't have time to practice it afterwards to make it stick because, as soon as the lesson was over, I had to leave. Here's roughly what I remember:

• Opening moves are the same as the free skate, facing toward the doors
• Immediately go into the footwork sequence but take your time and make it big! Exaggerate edges and extensions. 
• Airplane move from the original Geisha program
• **updated** Fluff moves that take me to the opposite lutz corner
• Waltz-falling leaf-half flip jump sequence
• Three CW backward crossovers, step forward to a two-foot glide to center with arms
• RFO Spiral that travels diagonally to the lutz corner
• connecting moves (mohawks, arms, and back attitude glide)
• Backward crossovers, step forward, toe loop
• Backward crossovers, wind-up into one foot spin

I think that's right? I feel like I've already forgotten some of it. There's a lot of stuff crammed into a minute and a half but I'll get speedier the more I practice it. Since we are not sure if I'll be on the Lobby side or the Zamboni side for the competition, he's having me start and finish on the long center axis so, no matter which side I'm on, I won't have to think too much about where to put everything (if that makes sense).

I have not yet registered for the competition and the deadline is in a few days. I have something in my personal life that might happen around the time of the competition so I'm afraid of dropping all that cash to compete and then not being able to get a refund if I can't make it because of this other thing. I finally spoke to my coach about it today because every time I see him he asks if I've registered yet. I always say "I'm waiting until the last minute because confidence." I finally came clean today and told him why. He's excited for this potential opportunity for me and understands if I cannot make the competition. So, we'll keep working as if I'm going to the competition because I still might. It's just bad timing. The deadline to register is August 5th and I won't know about the other thing until August 15th. If I register for the competition and the other thing falls through, everything is cool and I'll compete as planned. But if I register and the other thing actually happens, I risk losing about $150 because I won't be able to do both. Why does everything big have to happen all at once?!
