i wish i kept up with this more. I ended up putting Jaycie in dance. I think the closer I become to graduation (this is my second year) the more I end up wanting to dance. I took a balletfit class over the summer.. and Joe (my co-worker) asked me to dance a piece in his show. It was awesome. This will be Jaycie's first year performing in the nutcracker. Her pictures came out adorable. I stopped reading books since I started the program for Library Science (ironically) and then this semester I have a class called Literature for Children and Young adults. I read 3 books a week and review them. I never thought I would be able to read three a week. It has definitely been a struggle but it has been so fun and I am learning so much. In my other class I also have an awful partner that I have to work with. She runs hot and cold and can be so rude but I guess I am getting experience with that kind of person. It will only make me stronger.. right? I'll try to update this more. I love going back and reading stuff.
Still no...
the musings and views of a life that is ambiguous and hazy but worth living :)
Learning to walk set you free. Learning to dance gives you the greatest freedom of all: to express with your whole self the person you are.

Books Books Books
Ok, so my current obsession is books. It's been an obsession for a while now and I most recently applied for my masters in Library Science. I want to become a librarian. I figure I can't teach dance forever and how else can I make a living by screwing the things I love most into the ground? Ok, so the last one was a little of a joke.... but not really. I actually told my mom that if I never see another dance competition in my life I would be happy. I haven't even put Jaycie in Dance. I am so tired and so burnt out by 13 years of dance teaching. I am actually dreading this upcoming year because it will be the 10 year reunion for the Silver Stars. We should do something big but all I want to do is quit. Seriously. So to distract myself for a while I set a goal of 3 books a month. I've read where some people read 50 in a year or even over 365 in a year.... I guess you can say I'm starting out small. 3 a month sounds good. So far I am almost on track with the exception of one book. "Carry On" by Rainbow Rowell took so long to read partially because it was so slow to start. I love the Harry Potter books and this one felt like a "knock-off" so it took me forever to read. I started a new one called "The Hate u Give" by Angie Thomas. It was recommended by our librarian.
