My Story.




This week I will be linking up with Aspire, Your Story.
You can use the cute button {on my buttons page} or the link above if you interested in linking up also!

     This week. Goodness, where do I start? Well, first of all, the pictures above ^^^ give away most of it. So lets start there. We {as in my dance company} had our Christmas show. It was this past Saturday. Weird enough it was before Thanksgiving but then we have to go back next week for our same usual classes, even on Thanksgiving day! Well forget that, I'm going to be *sick* that day. Like I said we go back next week until the 14th of December. Then we have Christmas break.

      And then! We have dance convention!!! I am VERY excited for this! Every year this specific dance company is invited to attend at the Dance Convention in Myrtle Beach South Carolina! If you have never heard of this before {like me} it is when you go for a whole entire week and learn dances from FAMOUS PEOPLE! One of the teachers is Kent Boyd! But, that not until January.

     Now let me tell you a little bit more about our specific dances from the Christmas show. The first two pictures {sorry if they are blurry} are from the very first dance in the show which I was in. It was called the Waltz of the Snowflakes {from the nutcracker}. This was my very first dance on pointe! I was really excited for this! Now let me tell you about the last picture. This is the "Here Comes Santa Claus" dance. Now I am on the Middle School dance team. Probably because I'm in middle school! Every year this dance studio participates in the Christmas Parade. And the high school girls dance team is going to do this dance for the mayor of our area! Ms. Wendy {our teacher} really wanted some of us middle school girls to do the dance with them also. Hence, we had tryouts for this dance after we had learned it. Let me tell you, it was way easy! And I'm not going to lie. I was purdy dang good at it! Anyways I was one of the few girls that did not make it. {Insert Frowny face here} but then after, she went around and gave us some *pointers* and when it came to me, I was not happy. She went on and on and on about how good I was at pointe and then ended with, and I quote, "you are new here, and  your from Utah" . And just like that she forgot about me and went to the next girl. As you can tell {because I am ranting on about this} that I was very discouraged anger at the moment about this. But that's what life is for. I learned that not everybody is going to like me. And I'm not going to like everybody myself. *cough cough ms. wendy cough*

    Now for some not so depressing news! And I just realized this but, my birthday is next week!!! I am so excited! My dad is going to get me a Ukulele! And hopefully sometime soon I can get money for my grades so that my mom can take me shopping. I am also hoping for maybe a hard guitar case and a capo for either my birthday or Chirstmas. Yes, I do realize what I guitar nerd I am. I even own a guitar chords book encyclopedia!

    I would like to share with you some old {and I mean old!} pictures of me from the past years. Yeah now, just to have a little blast in the past.







{p.s. I really don't have any explanation for most of these pictures}
