Getting somewhere...

Tonight I had my last dance recital for the year! I got some exciting news! I am officially a teacher at my dance studio (instead of an assistant) starting in 2 weeks! Lesson learned:Never do anything your parents told you not to do! I learned this the hard way today! If you do something you are told not to something will happen and you will get caught somehow! I didn't really have anything to talk about so just thought I would share some exciting news! :)

Jumping on the bandwagon...

While being sick and stuck at home all day I accomplished absolutely nothing. I spent my day watching The Voice on hulu and listening to music. All of my friends were in love with Scotty McCreery when American Idol was on and I decided to see why they loved him so much. After spending about 30 minutes watching recaps from American Idol I must now say that I have jumped on the band wagon and fallen in love with Scotty! I also watched videos of Patrick Thomas from The Voice...I don't know what it is about country boys but there is something about them that I fall in love with! This week is a very busy week, I have exams starting Friday, cheer practice Friday after school, a dance recital Friday night, I am going to graduation on Saturday, a party Saturday night, and hopefully finding time to finish my english exam Sunday since it is due Monday. You would think I would have finished the exam today with all of my free time, but I am a huge procrastinator. I didn't really have anything to talk about today except for the fact that I fell in love with two people that I don't know and have no idea who I am. I have to go to dress rehearsal for my recital...which is the last thing I want to do today. :(
Until next time...

To dance or not to dance?

Looking back on the last 14 years of my life I have realized my schedule has consisted of dance and school. Is this what I really want in life? I have been thinking about what my life would be like if I didn't dance, spent time with friends, and made time to relax and not worry about anything. I have thought long and hard and I can not decide whether dance is something I want to continue doing. Somedays I feel if I don't dance I will die, while other days I don't even want to look at the studio. I feel left out of a lot of things my friends do because I am so involved in dance, and I think is this the life I want for myself? I feel if I quit dance I just gave up 14 years of my life, but I also feel I will be much happier. I want to always be able to tell my friends I can hang out whenever, but with dance I can only say "let me check my schedule, it may be a few weeks." I tried out for varsity cheerleading at WHS a couple of weeks ago and made it. I decided to cheerlead and take 2 or 3 dance classes next year to try and decide what I really want to do. I have always wanted to be a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader when I was in college like my mom. I have wanted this since I was 6 and I don't want to give up on my dream, but if I quit dance trying out is out of the question. I went back to ballet at the beginning of sophomore year and realized how much I missed from just taking a of couple years off of ballet and if I quit dance all together I don't want to see how much more I would miss. So...to dance or not to dance?

1 more day!

Well, it has been a long time since I have written anything! I just got home from Orlando, Florida for Spring Break! My friend, Courtney, and I went to Universal for a week. We are supposed to go back to school on Monday, but while I was gone I received news that my sister is going to have her baby Monday morning! Brayden is breech so she has to have a c-section. The whole family is driving to Mooresville tomorrow to spend the night with her so we can all go with her to the hospital when she has the baby! Unfortunately, we all have to drive home Monday afternoon due to school and work. Hopefully on the weekends we will go to stay with her and help out when we can. I am also going to spend the summer with them so my sister can go back to work and I will babysit during the day! I am so excited to finally see Brayden's face in person and not through an ultrasound! That is all for now!! :)
