I'm pretty sure I want to do the dance major at the community college in the fall semester. I started to audition for this semester, and classes are already filling up. My shoes were too tight, but I am glad to have another semester off.

Trying to Decide
between Central Florida Ballet and a Dance AA. My mom said to wait until next fall. I think I want to do the Dance AA, at a community college. There are people there closer to my age. I can do it one year then do it in the summer and next semester and be finished before I turn 26. It's called a Pre-Major, so it implies you study more later at a college somewhere else. The colleges here don't have it. If I get thinner, I wonder if I can make it into Juilliard, though I think I am too old. I'm not sure if I'm doing it, but I hope I get in shape a little more. I was just out jogging slowly and walking. I don't eat too much, but when I am hungry I eat. Now, I feel like going to bed, just looking up stuff and posting on the internet to unwind. Today, I went with my mom to do some errands.
"Sex and the City" - African American girl
I saw just her fingers going through something and I thought it was a European and you couldn't tell the difference at all, though she had a very chocolate brown face. Her fingers looked brown with her whole body, too.
Why do black people think whites can't be black?
I think they are truly jealous of Europeans with lots of culture, certain attractive behaviors.
First Found Theater
I went to a place to take piano, and they also had theater there. I was already gonna be second to oldest and I didn't wanna quit piano because I knew I'd get more out if it talent-wise and was already praised for my skills in it. Then, I meet friends who do or do not do whatever kind of music and am glad to be where I am, ahead in a lot of ways. I sang and was able to accompany 3 musicals. I couldn't be happier! I was lucky my first one this boy in drama asked the talented music teacher if I could accompany. She ended up doing the piano part. She took out notes that I might've been able to do but didn't give it back when I told her.
I didn't grow up on Slidell Little Theatre, College Arts Prep, nor NOCCA|Riverfront.
I didn't know anything of theater, just children's choir and before gymnastics and ballet.
Less Stress

I'm just going here, to a ballet studio with classes offered to people who are older and not in a company. I plan to try the advanced classes first and hopefully stick with it. I have to keep at it if I'm interested. I think it helps with posture. So, I can start whenever I want.
I was also thinking of singing, but it takes a totally different person to do. Charlotte Church is very good and doesn't mess up, but she doesn't also dance or anything. She's smart. I have my singing and dancing up on my YouTube,http://www.youtube.com/XChristinaBarrett86X. The ballet is under the Home Videos playlist. http://www.youtube.com/user/XChristinaBarrett86X?feature=mhum#g/c/7B83B583BC533C29
Oh well. I have fun singing sometimes, too. Another thing is I never feel it's too long when taking a ballet class. Companies, though, go all day.
The thing with the dance major is I'd have to get in the modern classes to move up in ballet past beginning. I am not sure, though, I miss singing and my being bigger set would help with that in a way. It feels good though to get a workout and stretch at ballet. I'm glad I quit when I did because I didn't so much like jazz and tap and modern taking up ballet time. It was cute, but I was missing class to sleep. So I've caught up on sleep by stopping doing things and feel soon I can train in ballet. It's getting cold out, but I have a warm outfit to work out in. Singing would sure be fun, though, so I dunno. I don't want both because it's so hard to begin with and getting enough sleep and all. I'm not sure if I can start with both and end with one. It's interesting I noticed that, that it works better just to do singing or just to do ballet. I don't know about doing it because you never did and it helps with something else because I never was in that situation that I remember so much.
If I do ballet now, I have to stop going to the gym and watching movies so I can focus, but that's okay.
Still Contemplating
I'm still contemplating when I should do ballet classes. Now, I plan to wait longer to get in shape first. I dunno? I can't do the dance program because I don't like the modern dance. The adult open classes are a bit casual. I also don't wanna go back to Central Florida Ballet. I think I have to wait even longer. I used to not eat enough lunch at school and lost a lot of sleep, though I feel a lot better and like I could work, basically rearranging all the stuff in the garage. I already got rid of so much random stuff, some stuffed animals, some papers or whatever, etc.
