Sorry I haven't written a post in a shameful amount of time! Truth is though, I have rather mixed intentions of what my content should be about! I'm still keeping track of my corrections and what not, but I do so by scribbling notes in a journal I take around with me. Doing things purely with technology obviously wasn't working for me so I decided to rep it old style!
However I decided that simply not posting is not going to help me decide what content this blog should produce, I think I need to continue experimenting to see what fits.
So while that happens, I might just give a quick update! One of my goals for the year was to pass my Grade 6 exam, and I will be taking it in the last week of April! At this point in time, I am not nervous, instead I am rather excited! Before I do my exam, I'll turn 18, which is quite an alien concept, to actually be an adult. I still feel like I need to grip onto my childhood (especially being a late starter in ballet and wanting to be perceived as younger than I am to blend in) but now I look forward to beginning this new chapter of my life. I've stopped hushing my classmates when they try to discuss how old I am ("ancient" has also been used to describe me. They're 3 years younger then I am) and started to embrace it! I had no trouble excitedly claiming to my contemporary teacher "I'M 18 NEXT MONTH OMG WHAT?!?!" and I'm sure my ballet teacher will soon be hearing about it as well!
I'm looking forward to the coming months, this year has been pretty good so far, I'll will try to post often, even if at the moment it is just updates like these!
I hope you keep posting. You could post about tips you learned, things you've learned in dance, how your recital is going (if you're doing one), random things, or whatever else you want to post about. Those are just some ideas. Also, you're not "ancient". You are turning eighTEEN after all. I enjoy reading your posts and I hope that you keep dancing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I will try! And to a 14/15 year old, 18 does seem very old, I sure thought so when I was that age! Most of the time I integrate quite seamlessly with my class because I look quite young so when my age is mentioned they get so shocked!
