It came...

Well I finally got my letter. I have to say I was very disappointed. Apparently there were so many people who auditioned that they only had enough space to put everyone in 1 thing. I was placed in “land of the Sweets” which is part of the nutcracker. I’m not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing yet… my first rehearsal in Sunday, so I will know more then.

I also made understudy for La Valse, I was really upset about this. I really wanted to be a part of it, and I thought I did really well at this audition… granted there 60 girls auditioning and only 5 and 2 understudies would make it(so I guess I did ok…). Being an Understudy will be hard because I have to learn the parts while knowing that I probably won’t get to dance them.
I know that God has me where I’m supposed to be, and this will be a learning experience. I hope to post rehersal pictures as soon as I get some!

Best Wishes.

Stalking the Mailman

Ok, I'm not actually stalking our mailman, but I am still waiting for my letter to come. I just got a call today saying that it might be another week coming... the wait is killing me!!!

Big Audition!

Well I had my big audition today! I can’t tell you how nervous I was! I also had to teach my first older ballet class this morning and I think my nervousness about my audition showed, but other than that the teaching went well.

Anyway back to the audition. So there were quite a few dancers that showed up. It was hard to find room to do the combinations correctly, which got quite frustrating! I have a feeling that I didn’t do so well, but I won’t know anything until next week when they send out the letters! So until then I am going to be the crazy lady who waits next to the mailbox and scares the mailman!

Best wishes to everyone!!!

Ballet and a Drama!

So my first ballet class was great! It felt like I was returning home after a long time of being away, I missed it so much! And my hip didn’t bother me much, which was a great blessing.
Yesterday I had my first class with my new teacher. She is from North Carolina so she had quite the accent! I will have to take a few more classes before I make a judgment about her teaching though.

I’m also excited to tell you that I’m going to be in my first ever drama! Its called “Spiritual Starbucks” and I’m doing it for our youth group! I’m so excited (and slightly nervous) to see how it turns out.
The basic plot is that people come to the Spiritual Starbucks to order the type of religion they want. A lot of people order things like a “Triple Buddha Mocha Mohammed Latte” or “Wildberry Wiccan with a shot of Caramel Cult”, but no one wants to order a “Venti Full Strength Jesus”. I love the idea, and I’m a coffee addict so this is right up my alley. I’ll keep you posted!

Excited!

My ballet school is finally starting the year! My first class back is tomorrow! I’m so excited, and I’m praying that my hip will cooperate with me!

I’ll update you soon!
