my theme song

This is what I think of myself.

Dance. Dance. Dance.
by Lykke Li

Having troubles telling how I feel
But I can dance, dance and dance
Couldn't possibly tell you how I mean
But I can dance, dance, dance So when I trip on my feet
Look at the beat
The words are, written in the sand
When I'm shaking my hips
Look for the swing
The words are, written in the air
Dance
I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance Words can never make up for what you do
Easy conversations, there's no such thing
No I'm shy, shy, shy
My hips they lie 'cause in reality I'm shy, shy, shy
But when I trip on my feet
Look at the ground
The words are, written in the dust
When I'm shaking my hips Look for the swing
The words are written in the air
Dance
I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words can never make up for what you do
Dance, dance, dance

i just bought new books!

I just pre-ordered some books and got a third one just so i have free shipping.. haha

SO EXCITED FOR MOCKINGJAY!!!! (3rd/final book of the Hunger Games)

Just saw an ad for this book and thought it looked interesting. Actually, they compared it to Royal Tenenbaums, one of my favorite movies. So...I gotta read it!

This is the third book I got so I could get free shipping. Seems inspiring. Should be a good summer read...I'm actually not much of a reader. I like it though and I want to be better.

dance concert!

I just realized I haven't blogged about my dance concert! It's what I worked so hard for...it happened one night...and then it was all over...and i miss it.

I danced in the intro piece, a contemporary/jazz, hip-hop, lyrical, another hip-hop/breakdance (this one I choreographed), hawaiian hula, another hip-hop, a turkish dance, chinese fan dance, bollywood, another contemporary, and the finale. 12 all together. best thing i've ever done.

Yes, there's a lot of pictures.







My lovely teacher, Nina..Mahalo.

be careful what you wish for

remember how all i wanted and all i needed to do was dance?
i got my wish.
and i love it.

i eat, sleep, and breathe...dance.

literally.

because i dance all day and night, i don't eat much real food. maybe a banana or crackers all day. (trust me it's not because i've turned into a prima ballerina and i want to lose weight.)

because i dance all day and night, (and school full time and work crazy hours) i don't sleep much. my body is really confused. it never knows when it will rest.

because i dance all day and night, (on top of everything else) sometimes i can't breathe. i have been sick for a few weeks now. at first the doctor didn't know what was wrong with me. but now it's just turned into a flu.

yet i love it all. because i dance all day and night.

(we have a dance concert on march 3rd that i'm really working hard for. it's stressful and tiring and AMAZING. i can't wait!)
