Dear Me...

So,
We know what we are wearing for modern!!!!!!!!!! GREAT HUH?!?!?! Great until you see what we are wearing (don't forget this is the shadow dance)

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!! IT'S SO AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone, be glad you go to wherever you take dance, where they don't make you wear full body unitards!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is the recital status:
Modern:It's getting better. We added a lot to our dance last night.
Tap:Haven't been to class yet this week
Ballet 3 Thu:Haven't been to class yet this week
Ballet 3 Sat:Haven't been to class yet this week

Helpful, I know.

Also,
The teachers are trying to determine our placement for next year. I don't like them going over there notebooks!!!!!!!! It's annoying!!!!!!!!

Let's just say I had a mistake on my schedule last year. It said I was supposed to stay in Tap 2, and EVERYONE ELSE moved up. Including the little 8 year old girl (she's 10 now). And my teacher had meant to move everybody up, so like every week until we were done for the year, she was like: "I am so excited, because I moved everybody in this class up. So I really hope you all take tap again next year. Tap 3 is a ton of fun! BLA BLA BLA!" So you can imagine how it felt to be poor me listening to all this.

Then when my mom went to register me, she was talking to the director. And my mom told her about what my tap teacher had said. The director didn't think that the tap teacher would say that if there was a girl who DIDN'T move up. So she called my tap teacher, and my tap teacher said I was supposed to move up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When my mom told me at home, I felt like screaming I was so happy!

Anyway, now ya know why I'm not eager to getting schedules next month!

Not much to say...

Hey guys,
Sorry that I don't have much to post about... this is going to happen again over the summer (until dance intensive...) Since there is not really any dance over spring break, there is practically nothing to post about.

ANYWAY... I wanted to share this picture that I took at dance concert earlier this year. Dance concert is an advanced student concert and company and the advanced classes dance. Also the older girls get to choreograph a dance and audition the younger girls to pick people to perform their choreography at dance concert.

I COULD have done company but I was at the very minimal age to get in, so I decided to hold off a year (at least). I WAS going to audition for the Student pieces, but missed the auditions (nobody told us when they were!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) And only one of my classes was considered advanced (how it modern 2 considered advanced?) All my other classes are considered intermediate.

So I took my camera, and took 96 pictures, of girls hanging out backstage, talking backstage, stretching in the warm up room, one class practicing there dance in the warm up room, doing there hair and makeup in the dressing room, us being all nervous in the wings, even a few pictures of girls dancing onstage.

Well that's about it.

Fastest Post EVER!!!!!!!

Okay, so I have 2 minutes to write this post, because I have to leave for ballet class!!!!

So I don't have much to write about because it is spring break. I know what you are thinking... "Wait a minute, didn't she just say that she had to leave for ballet class?" Yes, I did say that! We had snow days a while back, but so many classes got missed, that some of the makeups had to be done on Spring Break.

I don't have much to post about because it's only 2 classes, and we aren't working on the recital for those....


ANYWAY!!!!!!! The reason I wanted to post today, was because I just HAD to tell ya'll that yesterday at pointe class, we got to do stuff in the center FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!!!!!!! That's all!

STILL!!!!! No sign of costumes

THERE IS STILL NO SIGN OF COSTUMES!!!!!!!!!!!!

BUT, I did have a dream last night that someone posted pictures of the costumes on the bulletin board. I vegally remember what my ballet costume looks like. And I remember going up to my friend and saying: "Look ****, they put up pictures of the costumes." (I didn't want to say my friends name, NO it wasn't Carmel!!!)

Choreography.... is... going PRETTY well.

Tap status, I don't feel like we get to actually tap dance enough. We have to do our dance with tap 2. My teacher is giving us a special part at the beginning to do fancier stuff, but I don't feel like she is using it to our best ability.

Ballet Thu. status, it's going pretty well. My teacher is feeling very stressed out with it though. We have a good start on our dance. Unfortunately, remember when I said me and my two friends get to do the first steps together? Well, we are the slightly more advanced girls in the class (Because we are also in 3x), so when we ask my teacher questions, she says, work that out with your trio. But some things, we can't make work without changing the choreography. We OBVIOUSLY can't change the choreography. I think that once we get to the HUGE stage, some this will work out.

Ballet Sat. status, We aren't very far, but we have a good firm start. All we've really done is entered, but it looks really pretty. And it's very clean.

Modern status, ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY AWFUL!!!! The director told my teacher what our costumes were to look like, gave her the song, and the basic idea of the dance. She doesn't like ANY of it. So she hasn't been puting that much effort into the dance. Biggest problem is, is that at the beginning we are supposed to be EXACTLY together. Sooooooooooooo, ummmmmmmmmm, That's not gonna happen.

Well, I'm sure it will all work out in the end. :)
