Streetdance 2.18.12
Streetdance was unforgettable and I can’t shake the feeling of happiness, excitement, motivation, and hope for the future. I am so proud and honored to be apart of MMDT 2011-2012. Not because of the placing today but because of the memories made and shared.
First performance was “duet” with the homeboy Antuan. This kid annoys me so much and I know for sure I do the same to him. We have grown really close since Streetdance last year and I couldn’t help but to look forward to this year’s Streetdance. haha Its been a year and we improved so much as dancers. A year ago, we placed 6th which was great because we didn’t think we were going to place at all but we were out for blood this time and ended up placing 2nd this year. Sadly, we only had 3 real, legit practices and the only downside to that is we didn’t get to bond as much. He is seriously one of my best friends and it was an honor dancing beside him. Good luck next year if you end up doing a duo with someone else. I am very depressed that this was our last time competing as a duo. Congratz on winning Mr. Streetdance because you really deserved it bro. We really should have choreographed more eye contact with each other. HAHA :p
The other performances went great too. Military-2nd, All Female-2nd, Traditional-2nd, Hip Hop-1st, All Male-1st & Overall High Point Award. The journey and process towards Streetdance was both stressful and exhilarating. Practicing, practicing, and practicing showed through on the Soka University Stage today. After leaving Streetdance, I feel more motivated to keep working hard and improve not only as a dancer, but as a person. I am humbled by this experience and grateful for everything that happened this week.
Dear bed,
You are my gateway to soothing relaxation. Whenever I need you, you have been there for me and I have forever enjoyed your company. After a long day, I yearn to lie down and take pleasure in feeling the comfortable cold mattress covers that engulfs my body in warmth after mere seconds. Whenever I feel stressed or tired, I simply retreat to you and the stress falls overout of my body and spirals down away from me like water down a drain. My mind equally becomes clear, vast, and struck in a state of reverie. The hardest part is my departure once the sun rises, and although I know we are going to meet again, I detest saying my goodbyes to you. Surely though, I am grateful for your very existence and I would not be who I am without your comfort.
