3 Days of School

This week is going to be amazing. Only 3 days of school and NO DANCE!! I get a week off!! I don't know what I'll do with my free time though. Today I went for a run and read The Shack. Jeez that book is sooo depressing. It's good though and I love a good book(um...who doesn't?)

Anyway, this weekend didn't turn out exactly the way I planned but it was pretty good. I was in the car for a total of 10 hours this weekend reading, eating, and listening to my iPod. You know what I don't understand? Why do people eat when they're bored? I do that all the time and then you feel like a sumo wrestler after the chow down, even though you weren't really hungry in the first place. Whatever, I'm young. I'll break the habbit when I start to gain weight. So, as it went, I actually didn't get to go to Chicago because it was some 21 degrees outside. There was no way my family and I were going to walk downtown in that weather. I think we're going over spring break because there's some tulip festival in the Spring. Anyway, the baptism was good, and little Leah is THE CUTEST baby on the planet. On Saturday I went to my uncle's school (he's a teacher and basketball coach) to play in the big gym. My cousins and I played with the mats and I fell and got a huge bruise on my butt. Ouch... 

The waterpark was pretty fun too. Our neighbors stayed in the room next to us and we swam  and went in the hot tub alot. On Friday night we pretty much chilled in the room and listened to our iPod's while the adults went out. It was pretty fun to hang out with them again. 

So, overall good weekend. Even though I didn't get to hang out with any of my friends from L.A., I think it was pretty fantastic. 

DANCE=LIFE

Anyone who knows me will be like "She's obsessed with dancing! You can never hang out with her or do anything! But I know she loves it and I don't think she will ever change," which is true. I guess they know me too well. Yes, dance is my life (hence the title) and yes, I'm pretty sure it will NEVER change. I love my friends and sometimes I wish I had a few minutes to myself but that's not like me to sit around and do nothing. I'm not kidding you, I would go CRAZY if I wasn't a dancer or doing something else like a sport or whatever. But, if you've ever met me, I'm not really the sporty type. Basketball...nope, I have no hand-eye coordination. Soccer...I would trip all over the place. Volleyball...are you kidding?! That sport is designed to break your wrists! I think track is the only sport I was good at. Yupp...I tried it in 7th grade. I was a good sprinter and I was pretty beast at the 200. And then I tried out in 8th grade but that was before I found out that meets were on Wednesday. Oops...that's my biggest day in my week for dance. Anyway, I would totally go for that if I didn't dance. So, yeah that is the reason why this blog is called DANCE=LIFE...because it does. And by the way, if dance were any easier it would be called FOOTBALL...(Sorry Mr. Fielder...believe me...)

Just a reminder...

P.S. Ok, so this blog is for my English class and my other one is just for whatever, so it will be alot different.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Happy Early Valentine's Day!!! Wear pink and red!! Yesterday was Happy Hearts Day at dance and I went ALL OUT for it. I wore pink and put stickers all over the place. Don't forget red lipstick!!

So this weekend I'm not going to be in town for Valentine's day. Tomorrow I'm leaving to go to Wisconsin to stay at a waterpark with old neighbors. Before we moved, we were super close. I think we're spending like 2 days at this waterpark, I don't know which one but whatever, and then we're going to a baptism on Sunday. My aunt just had a little baby girl, Leah Jane, and I can't wait to meet her. I guess she looks like my uncle more than my aunt but I guess I'll find out. After that, I'm going to CHICAGO, YEAH!!!! I love the windy city!! I've always wanted to live there and maybe I'll work there someday. Joffrey Ballet is in Chicago and so is Hubbard Street...I could work at either one. Anyway, I think we're going to go to the American Girl Store and walk up and down Michigan Avenue. I think it's funny how a main street in Chicago is named after my state. Oh, and I really want to go to the Nike store. You can get costumized Nike hightops with rhinestones and any color you want. I would get...hmm...purple and teal with silver rhinestones. Amazing!!! Wow, I got way off track. So then I get to come home and do homework...ugh...whatever it'll be a really great weekend.
