Dance Recital: Done!

Tonight was great. I just finished my first dance recital! I was nervous at first when I realized, "hey. We're next aren't we?" and than I heard the music. That feeling of "yeah, I have no choice but to get out there and dance. Right now." always gets me a bit nervous. But once I'm out there and into it, there's no stopping me. I'm pleasing the crowd!
Too bad the crowd was pretty dead.
But I had such a great time! Even though I was only in one dance, getting to see the backstage life during a dance performence was interesting. It's different from theatre and singing performences. So many costume changes!
But anyways, it was fun. And I hope to dance again! Let me tell you, a year ago I would of laughed at the person that told me I was going to be in a dance recital that next year.
Oh, and to go on another subject randomly, I'm never eating chocolate chip pancakes. iHop has scarred me for life. Blech. But hanging out with friends is always great :) And I got to eat Elizabeth's broccoli, so it's all good ;) (broccoli and pancakes? Don't. Ask. LOL)
Time for bed, church in the morning!....at eight. UGH. But it'll be alright. And supposedly we're going out of town for two days, so I'm good. Even though I'm going to be missing a great cookout. But whatever...
Oh, and let me take this moment to emphasize my immense love for summer break. IMMENSE LOVE. ahhh....:)

Last full day of school: Finished!

Finally! I feel like a huge brick has left my shoulders. Tomorrow all I have to worry about is the latin final, and then I'm done with school!
And here's what I have to look foward to:
Last weekend of Music Man-bittersweet, but it's been a great run. :)
Summer break-YES!!
Dance Recital-little nervous about tap routine, but I know I'll fun. I've never worn so much sequins!
Governor's School-only two weeks away! :D

It's the final countdown!

Tomorrow. Is. the. last. Friday!!! Of the school year! I'm so happy :)
And now it's Saturday, and we've completed three more shows! It's been great. The show keeps getting better, and I'm loving every second! These are the moments that I treasure forever :) And tomorrow will also be fun! But now I am going to bed. And what will I be dreaming of? How I'm going to remodel my room this summer, my plans this summer, and how great Governor's School is going to be! Or maybe I'll just go to bed. haha :)
Goodnight! Sleeptight! And many dreams to you. Here's a kiss, and prayer, that all your dreams come true. And now, until, we meet again....audios, auivore, al vidase.....Goodnight!
That's from the Lawrence Welk Show, just in case you didn't know. ;) I'm so not a child of this generation.

1 down, 11 to go!

Opening night was FANTASTIC. The crowd was one of the most active I've ever seen. I think they were having as much fun as I was! Oh it was incredible. And today is a two show day! So exciting!

It's Opening Night......It's OPENING NIGHT!!!

Goodness. How did it get here so fast? I feel like I was just talking about my audition for the show yesterday! Anyways, to be short and sweet this show is going to be fantastic. Everyone's finally discovering their characters, the set, sound and lights are coming together, and now all we need is an audience! Ahh I love opening night. When you hear the first round of applause or the first laughter of the crowd, it's magic. It's so fulfilling, and makes all of the hard work worth it.
Well, I've got to go get ready, I'm so excited! Performing on stage never gets old. d

Saturday. The best day of the week. Period.

This is exciting. I'm writing on our new family computer! It's pretty awesome I must say. Though you know what would be even more awesome? Posting on my own laptop. UGH. Anways, that venting session is for another day. Preferably after I get my laptop back. Ok back to subject. Here's a recap of yesterday.:
Friday: STATE. Let me just say that it went by really fast. I mean, we got there, we warmed up, we sang, and we got back on the bus. Yeah, that fast. But to cut to the chase, we won! I'm still can't believe it. I really didn't think we'd get superior. But we did, and everyone was happy. After competition, we spent three hours at the mall. I don't think I've even had so much fast food in one day in my life. Marble Slab, Taco Bell, and free Starbuck's(Kennedy's Dad owned the Starbucks in the mall, so yay!)
Sad how I don't have time to finish posts anymore. I'm going to abruptly wrap this up, since I'm posting it a week later....so here you go! :) hehe sorry.....
