Documented Dance

2/5/21

Today I got an email form ABT saying that I got into their summer intensives which is so much more than I was anticipating! I honestly came out of the audition thinking, well, it was fun but I screwed up way too much to actually get in. Of course now I need to finish my "Ballet Profile" and pay the tuition but I still did it! Tomorrow I have my last audition with Washington Ballet. The audtion time slot for this one is much shorter (1 hour instead of 2) and I might be doing a ton more pointe work which I will mess up agian. I did pointe today during class and my pointe shoes are so dead; I can feel the floor through both of them and the arch is so broken in, I can not only feel the arch sagging when I do a balance but I can also point my foot all the way and it actually shows so I definetly need new ones. I'm going to be waking up pretty early tomorrow for the early audition so od course, like the smart person I am, I probably won't go to sleep until about 2am tonight.
Tomorrow is also the start of the HoCo Dance Festival which is such a fun experience. I would normally do 4 master classes and watch on dance show from the teachers on the first day and watch/ participate in the student dance showcase on the second. But because of COVID (*gag*) I am doing 2 master classes online and have a link to the teacher showcase. I think I'm doing broadway jazz and contemperary jazz as my 2 classes which will be fun because I am strictly taught ballet (although I do want to start doing some jazz or other styles, irish was fun the one year I had that as a master class) I chose not to be a part of my studios dance in the student showcase so I'll probably watch that on day 2.

So every year on the superbowl, one of my friend's parents throw a big party where there is always a food competition. There is a food catagory/ style you have to make or bring (doesn't need to be homemade, but mine always are) and everyone tries everyone else food and scores it. One of the parents that run it work for NASA so she has like, a spreadsheet with equations and stuff to count up the votes in the 3 scoring catagories: Taste, Creativity, and Presentation. My dad won the macaroni year and my brother won the sliders year. This year however, there is no party but there will still be a competition. The catagory is #nofilter and you have to post it on their page for it to be scored it also has to be in your house when you post it. I am going to make an oreo cheesecake because apparently, my cheescakes look really good. I don't really know how I'm going to fit it into my schedual because cheescakes take like 8 hours, I have no time tomorrow, and I have my job and Hebrew High on Sunday (when the submitions have to be in by). I'm also going to use a new cake mold I got that looks like a giant cupcake to make some type of dessert for Valentine's Day and I'm going to make something for my friend's birthday party that is coming up. I'm going to be eating so much sugar over the next 3 weeks and I have no idea how I'm not going to get fat(ter) before auditions and classes and just everything else.

Someone needs to stop me, I have a blackberry addiction.

Other than my email of good news, my life has been very boring but I have been writing a lot more lately (malfoyxreader somewhat shameful plug: funfanfic4u Unwanted Necessities) so it's a miricle I'm not failing any of my classes by now.
