Dance To Art // D.S.

background

I've lived in California my whole life. Born in Malibu, CA, on February 26th 2000. Always being drawn to the ocean and dance.

I would spend hours at the beach everyday. Swimming, surfing, boating, just playing in the sand. I loved it!

I auditioned for an agency at the age of fifteen. Unfortunately I didn't get in but I was motivated and I worked my ass off and tried again. When I auditioned for the second time I was sixteen and thankful to have gotten in.

On the other hand, my older sister Sydney was soon leaving to go to New York, for her dream college which she has gotten in. To help her become a professional writer.

My mom was a nurse and my dad was an ocean engineer. We were a happy family of four.

July 18th 2018, both of my parents were on a trip out on the ocean. The boat left and never returned...

My sister and I have amazing lives ahead of us. She almost sacrificed giving up the chance for her dream college so she can stay with me.

After much contemplation of figuring out what would be the best for the both of us. We decided to split our ways. Both of us extremely young; 18 and 20. Ready for what the world has for us.

I moved into the apartment I'm currently living in. The first month was the hardest. I was organizing a bunch of stuff with the help of Mariah and my neighbor Jaden. Every time I went to bed, I couldn't sleep for the longest time.

It's been 6 months of living alone. I have everything organized and I'm getting used to it. I've been focusing on my dance and doing more lessons than ever. I started going to the studio in the beginning of the year 2019, which is really nice.

My sister has been keeping herself occupied with school and enjoying the big city. She's currently working on her bachelor's degree. We're both doing well enough, to continue what we love.

We will always remember our parents. We both have the same silver necklace. With a small circle, dog tag attached. On the back side, the one touching our chests has the date of our parents passing engraved into it. While the other side has the initials of our parents; C and L. For Carson and Laura.
