:(

Well I didn't make the dance major, worse than that I got cut after the first round. It is so hard do know why you got cut when it isn't always judged on your technically abilities. I feel like maybe the Lord is wanting me to go in another direction, but I don't know what that is. I am pretty frustrated that I didn't even get invited to show my solo. Only about six people didn't make call backs. Everyone else either got called back to perform their solos or they got accepted straight out. I am just annoyed that they really couldn't let the six of us who got cut do our solos would 10 more min have been that big of a deal. Anyway I am now spending my night trying to figure out where I go from here. I am going to minor in Folk Dance because I still really want to teach it, but unfortunately I need a major in order to graduate.
Any suggestions?

Halloween Utah Symphony


Lin and I went to a special Halloween Utah Symphony performance. It was so much fun. They played some "Scary" music like In The Hall of the Mountain King. It was a costume concert so we dressed up. We are supposed to be the two old men on the muppets, but really we just look like old men. It was really fun and pretty funny to see ourselves bald.

SPAC

HURRAY!!!! I got invited to audtion for SPAC. The Folk Dance SPring Performing Arts Company. They are the back up team. Auditions are on the 4th of November. If I make it I will have a class this coming winter semester and we will have our own show. Then after the semester is over we will tour around to the elementary schools in Utah County and do shows for them for a few weeks. It would be so much fun. I really hope I make it. Plus one of my closest friends from Folk Dance also got invited so hopefully we both make it.

Well I was going to post a video of my solo, but I can't get it to work. It takes too long and blogger times out.

Dancing. . .

So I audition for the dance major on the 30th of October. I am soooooo nervous. If I don't make it I am not sure what I will do. I want to teach dance, mostly clogging and possibly some Folk dance stuff as well and to teach in a studio I don't technically need a degree. I want to get one though just to have one, because I think they can be very beneficial. The problem comes in if I don't get in the dance major. I thought about transferring to UVU but if I want to teach Folk or clogging they don't have any classes that will help me. I have been exploring other majors at BYU but I feel I already have my generals done and a lot of dance classes just to help me feel ready for the audition so I will be heading on another two to three years if I change to another major. Plus none of them even remotely interest me. I will probably end up in Family sciences or something just to get a major. :( So wish me luck...... I may need it.
