Just One of Those Days....
-where everything seems to go wrong
-where you can't seem to find your footing
-that keeps handing out the beatings
-that finds you without strength
-that withholds any happiness
-that just doesn't end
................that was today.

Surprises and Happiness
I realized this morning that in the blog I posted last night i left out a very big piece of news!
Last Saturday Culture Shock Dance Troupe had open auditions for the 2008 team. I have by no means been taking class consistently over the last 4 or 5 months. I've taken a class every month or so when I could fit it in, but other than that I haven't done much. And the dancing I do while coaching USD is a completely different style than Culture Shock.
So on a random choice I decided that I was going to audition. I've always wanted to be on Culture Shock but given my schedule already I really had no idea of how I would fit it in, but i thought at the very least I'll go and get some audition experience. So I went. There are about 70 people there, many of which were returners from the previous years team, and teachers at culture shock. SO needless to say I was intimidated. I mean....here are the people I take class from and I was going to have to compete with them.
They taught the dance, had the first round of auditions and then they came back with three groups of numbers. The first group they asked to stay, the second they wanted to see again, and the third group were numbers who weren't called at all and were asked to leave. I was in the second group of numbers. I was excited considering I didnt even think my number would be called at all. But then I had to stress again for my next audition in front of the judges.
We went through the second round and then waited for the judges. When they came back they told us who was on the team...and I hadn't made it. But the surprise listing they had was a small group of auditioners who they were giving full scholarships to the Culture Shock Dance Center. For those who don't know the dance center is a studio run by the director of the troupe, and they provide full scholarships to dancers to train at the studio.
They called my name. So I now have a full scholarship to go take class anytime I want to for free. I get to train with the dancers from the troupe, take their classes, and hopefully improve myself for next years audition. This was more than I had expected to get out of the audition so needless to say I was ecstatic. I mean....what more could I truly expect. They have a very limited number of spots, most which are filled by those returning to the team. So to get anything out of the audition other than experience was an added bonus.
So thats my news. Expect me to be taking class ALL the time.
and maybe next year I'll be able to say I'm on the team :-)
