During the past week, I have started up dance for the year. This is only my second year doing this. I decided this year I would try out for the Owensboro Dance Theater. I had been stretching and conditioning all summer. I went to the audtions feeling terrified I would be lughed at. I came out of the auditions feeling relieved. I thought I did pretty good. I went back last week to check the ODT Company members...and there I was. I had made it. It was such a wonderful day because then I had pictures and then I convinced my mom to take me shopping for dance wear.

This year I decided I would work my absolute hardest to become better abd not feel so timid around the more experienced dancers. But as soon as I found out that wonderful peice of news, I had a big confidence boost.

This week so far I have completed 6 hours of dance practice. The dances include tap, ballet, pointe, and jazz. I am thinking about taking up hip hop in the future, but I would like to balance this schedule first. I have never danced tap before, but I think it would be fun. I am always up for a new challenge.

My next step in dance is to audition for Nutcracker Ballet. That should be interesting.
