Tap. I walked in to a bunch of parents sitting around and kids running around. I changed my shoes and stood near Adrienne and company. She asked me if Mary was coming and I said I didn't know since she hurt her ankle. Well Erika had her baby about a week ago so Rebecca F. was going to teach the class. We determined that I am older than her by a couple of months so I was the oldest on the dance floor. At first I was really agitated by the screaming children. Then I began to enjoy them a little bit.
Rose: *After stealing glances at me for the first half of class* You look like your twenty years old.
Ashley: *Begins to talk in the nice counselor voice* "No, I'm not twenty. This is my first year of tap."
Rose: "Really? I was wondering why you were here and then I was so surprise when you joined the class. You're all ready better than me and I've been doing it for years!!!"
Ashley: *Laugh* "No, I'm definitely not as good as you."
Rose: "How old are you anyway?"
Ashley: *Smile* "I'm sixteen."
Rose: "Really? You look older."
Ashley: "......well I'll be seventeen soon?" *Rose looks satisfied* "What's your name?"
Rose: "Rose."
Ashley: *Smile* "I'm Ashley. How old are you?"
Rose: "Ten."
I ended up talking to another one whose name is Cynthia. She helped me learn the double pull back. She says everyone forgets her name so I'll make a point to remember it. I ended up talking to them about Elementary school and how I went to Lakeview. Apparently a lot of them are in fifth grade. That was the same age of my campers from this summer. Rebecca F. taught me how to do the double pull back and I talked to her a lot during the class. It was nice to have someone my age to talk to. Mary, you should come to the next class. *Nods*
