My Crazy, Beautiful and Chaotic Life

So, for this post I decided to write an actual blog post instead of just posting a confession (at the moment, I am fresh out of confessions, hahaha.) Anyway, as the title says, my life has been crazy, beautiful and chaotic all at once lately. Crazy in the fact that I feel like I never get a moment to rest and relax, beautiful because I'm becoming more and more confident in dance, and chaotic because... well, I'm not going to go too much into detail about that, but trust me, it's been chaotic. School has really picked up in the last few weeks, but that's how it always is in the fall semester. As for grades, I don't really know where I stand in most of my classes, but I'm going to assume that if the teacher hasn't come up to me and told me that I'm failing, I figure I'm doing pretty good. As for choir, we have exactly 3 rehearsals left before our first concert of the semester, which is on October 25th.

As for dance, it seems like that's the only thing that I've been able to find any kind of solace, freedom and peace in lately. In the midst of all the craziness and chaos of my life lately, when I go to dance class or go audition for a student's dance piece, I find myself getting lost in the choreography, the music and the sheer movement of my own body. I've discovered this passion in me for dance that I never knew existed, or even thought I could have. Dance Performance class has really helped me come out of myself and express myself through dance, movement and choreography. It's given me a new found confidence in myself. Like I mentioned in one of my last few posts, I've started choreographing a dance to the song "Slow Me Down" by Emmy Rossum. I've gotten a lot more of it choreographed, but I still have a couple parts of the song where I have no idea what I'm going to do, but I'm sure the inspiration will strike me eventually. Also, another random thought. I'm thinking I might try to choreograph Katy Perry's "Firework". Been listening to that a lot lately and every time I listen to it, I suddenly have a vision of dancing to this song. So yeah, I'll probably be working on that soon as well.

As for the chaos in my life... Well, I don't wish to go into too much detail about it. Let's just say, I can't wait until I go to Sam Houston, but unfortunately, it looks like I'll be at Kingwood ANOTHER semester. I guess I can't complain too much because by staying another semester, this will give me a chance to take more dance classes before I audition for the Musical Theater department, because part of the audition is a dance audition. And, by staying another semester, this means I can audition for All State and if I get chosen to go, that means another fantastic trip to San Antonio! So yeah, it's not going to be so bad staying another semester, but I really, really, really, REALLY want and need to get out of Kingwood and actually start studying Musical Theater. But I guess that dream can wait another year...

Well, I guess that's enough for right now. Not sure when I'll post the next confession, or what it will be, but it will hopefully be sooner rather than later (I know I haven't been posting much lately. School has been KILLING me.) Anyway, until next time. Later!
