I put sweatpants and a sweatshirt over it. I put on Ugg boots and my winter coat with a scarf and hat. Its currently snowing in Pittsburgh so I want to be prepared. I put my hair into two dutch braids and put on light makeup because I'm going to be filmed the whole time.  I put leggings in my dance bag and then pack my backpack for the day which is the same as my carry on just without the blankets and stuff.  I run downstairs because mom calls Kalani and I. 

I see Kalani and Mom waiting by the door. "What about breakfast?" I ask. "I'm getting you girls Starbucks on the way." Mom says. I smile and go out the door with Kalani and mom. Kalani sits in the front and I sit in the back with my dance stuff next to me. I play on my phone and listen to music. I love One Direction and Justin Bieber. 

We go through the drive thru at Starbucks and I get a hot chocalate and a bagel with butter, and a fruit cup. Mom pays for mine, hers and kalani's food and drink. We also get abby her coffee because I guess she asked my mom. We drive another 15 minutes to the studio and we see that the snow stopped but its still a little slippery.  My mom parks the car and we go inside.  

We greet Miss Abby at the desk and my mom hands her the coffee. "Oh thank you Kira. Girls why don't you take your outerwear off and eat breakfast. You guys have at least a half hour before even Maddie and Mackenzie show up. " Abby says to Kalani and I. We nod and go into the dancers den. We hang our coats up in our lockers and put our shoes with them on the bottom of my locker.  I eat my bagel and finish my hot chocolate in 15 minutes. I put on my jazz shoes and go into studio A to warm up before pyramid.

I do a quick 15 minute barre. I really work on keeping my hips squared off and working on my  relevés. I see the girls starting to go get ready for pyramid so I follow quickly.

We all line up in a line By the door is Maddie, Nia, Chloe,Kalani,Kendall, Kenzie and then myself. The moms line up Melissa, my mom, Holly, Christi and Jill. Abby walks in and the cameras are already rolling.  The pyramid has four pictures on the bottom then three and one ontop. 

"Hello everyone, we had another clean sweep this past weekend. " Abby says. "Now onto pyramid." She says. She reveals the bottom picture which is Kendall. "Kendall you didn't really act out your fear. It was a tiny bit weak. " Abby says before moving on. She reveals the next picture which is Kalani. My mom looks over at Kalani. 

"Someone has to be there Kalani, you didn't have any special parts you didn't pull any bad or good attention." Abby says. She moves on to the next picture which is Chloe. "Chloe, you got second. You know how I feel about second." Abby says and then moves on to the next picture which ends up being Kenzie. "Kenzie you got second as well but you did an amazing job in the group number. " Abby says.

"Next row, Maddie and Nia you are equal its just theres obviously two spots before the top of the pyramid. So Maddie you had a duet with Kacey and we challenged you both with no music and you won. Nia you got first in your solo division and did an amazing job in the group routine. " Abby says. Nia and Maddie both smile.

Abby rips off the top of the pyramid which is me. "Kacey you proved to be a competitor this past week. You had a solo and a duet as well as the lead in the group. You had difficult acting challenges with your solo and the group. You had To transform into two separate characters and you did it perfectly. For the duet with Maddie the challenge was to dance with no music and be perfectly in sync which you did." Abby says. I smile and she smiles back.

"This week we will be attending Fierce dance competition in New Jersey. " Abby says. We all smile. "The solos this week are Kacey, Kalani and Nia. You three are the only ones that completely earned them this week. " Abby says.

 "What about Kendall?" Jill asks. "What do you mean Jill." Abby responds. "Kendall hasn't had a chance to go up against Kacey and I think she could Kick Kacey right off the top of the pyramid. " Jill says. I keep a straight face like Kalani and Mom told me to do. "Fine. Kendall has a solo, but mark my words Kendall if you don't win you won't be getting a solo for awhile. Same for you Kacey. " Abby says.  We both nod.

"So moving on we will have two duets." Abby says. We all smile. "Maddie and Mackenzie have a duet this week." Abby says. Melissa smiles. "Also Chloe and Kacey will have a duet. " Abby says. I look over at mom and then Chloe. I smile at both of them. 

"We also have two trios." Abby says. "I want to see how these three work together so Chloe, Maddie and Kacey will have a trio." Abby continues. Maddie and Chloe smile at me. "Kalani will be helping me choreograph the routines." Abby says. "Also Kendall, Nia and Kenzie are the second trio." Abby continues.

"The group routine will be a musical theatre piece to Cell Block Tango from Chicago. Theres only six of you in the dance though so we will be auditioning for the piece. Theres solo sections and I want six strong dancers. Weakest link is out." Abby says. "Now I want to start working on the solos first so Kacey and Kalani with me and Nia is going with Gia. Chloe can you stay with us? Everyone else is going into the studio B and working out some jazz for the group." Abby  says. 

Everyone leaves and Abby asks who wants to go first. I raise my hand and she smiles. Chloe sits with Abby and Kalani runs music while stretching. 

"Okay so your solo this week is a challenging piece, I am giving you a jazz dance. It is called The Greatest Star from Funny Girl." Abby says.  I smile because I love  funny girl so much! She starts giving me choreo and I start doing it. "You're doing great Kacey." She says. We work my solo for about an hour then she moves on to Kalani. I run the music while Abby works with Kalani. 

Abby then dismisses Kalani and Chloe comes in. "Alright you guys are doing a lyrical duet titled Keep Holding On. You guys are supposed to be bestfriends. Just think about when Chloe helped you out on the bus." Abby says. We start working on the routine and it has a lot of things that require trust like lifts where Chloe is lifting me.   We finish working on the duet and then we get ready to work on the group. 

Abby walks in with all of us. "So this weeks number is sassy and a little bit mature but we need it to look older. Now Mackenzie and Kendall look the  youngest. One of them is going to get cut. " Abby says. Makenzie and Kendall both look nervous. WE start working on the choreo and  I walk out first strutting and put my chair down. "So who ever isn't in the number is the announcer person." She says looking at Kenzie and Kendall. I hope Kenzie gets it.  

After working on the number for awhile we all get to go home. I get in the car with Kalani and Chloe. WE go back to my house.
