So I know it's been ages since my last post, and I highly doubt that I have any followers left. :( I apologize for that if anyone still checks my blog every now and then! Allow me to fill you in on the past six months since my last post (if there is anyone reading this...).
Strangely enough I don't recall much of March. I don't believe anything significant happened that month.
In April was of course April fools and my fail half attempts at pranks. Those are a blur, so I won't try to go into them. There was also Easter and we had an Easter egg hunt at our house for the little kids on our block and then we had a BBQ.
In May we went to Disney World. It was awesome! We went to Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Blizzard Beach. We also went to the Bush Gardens in Tampa. That was a lot of fun too, and I'm glad that we finally got to go to that one. I had only been to the Bush Gardens in Williams Burg before.
Also in May I believe were dance Company auditions. I made the Jr. Company and am looking forward to competing this coming year.
In June was my dance recital. It was a lot more fun this year (I actually knew what was going on most of the time) and I was in a bigger dressing room closer to the stage. I'm very grateful for that because I was in nine dances this past recital and was running back and forth between the stage and the dressing room for much of recital. Next year I'm going to be in 12+ dances because I made Company and we have extra Company members only dances.
In July I went to camp with my youth group. This was the first year that I have been able to do this because last year conflicted with recital. Camp was great and I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to go.
In August dance started back up and so did school for most of my friends. I'm very happy that dance has started again. I was grateful for the summer break for the first month, but I was afraid that I would go crazy during the second one. I had way to much energy all of the time and I was very forgetful and clumsy (Although I'm usually clumsy so maybe that's not significant). This year I am taking Modern, Acrobatics, Tap IV, Intermediate Lyrical, Ballet V/Pointe, Jazz V, Tap V, and Ballet V/VI. In addition to all that of course is Company.
At the end of August I got a break from everything (school, dance, ect.) because hurricane Isaac came near my area and we evacuated. That was nice except for the whole hurricane part. :)
Now it's the beginning of September and life is moving along as normal. School is about to officially start for me (although I've been doing math through the Summer) and I've been really wishing for Fall weather lately (I'm getting sick of the hot and steamy weather). I think in the Summer time Fall is my favorite season, but in the Winter time Spring is my favorite. I get cold easily and like warmer weather, but I don't like hot weather. Just tonight I realized that my tap shoes are too big and because I don't want to buy another pair (A. Tap shoes are expensive, B. My feet might not be finished growing) I have to start experimenting to see if socks, toe pads, or both help my shoes fit better.
Well, it's really late now (1:50am) and I should go to bed. I will try my best to post regularly, but lately my best has not been so great. I will make sure to post if anything interesting happens to me, and I will try to at least do a monthly summary like I just did here for six months.
