So my dance recital was this weekend. I had practice on Friday, and it was at Woodland High School in Cartersville...well, I had never been there before, so I had to go by directions and I got so lost. It took me 2 hours to get there when it should have taken 1. But the place was nice. Course when my mom came, she went a different way that took less time and it was a straight shot...none of this turn on 10 different roads, etc. I was so mad! I got over it though. The day of recital was unexpectantly fun and exciting. I took lots of pictures and had fun running around with all my dancer buddies. My dance students were so cute and they did a great job performing. I got some flowers for being a teacher this year, and that was cool...overall this year has been fun, just not challenging. So I don't think I'm going to actually dance there next year except to do a solo (to maybe compete with) but hopefully I can teach a class if I can find a ride and my schedule at Tech doesn't conflict. I did find a place in the Atlanta area called Dance 101 (Jimmy actually danced there for a while apparently) and it seems like a lot of fun and perfect for me since you pay on a class to class basis. Meaning I don't have to go every week...the studio is directed mainly toward adults, so that's good since I have no idea what Tech is going to be like.
Jimmy is now back from his 2 week trip and he still hasn't talked to me...no surprise. Funny thing is, my mom is teaching summer school, and guess who is taking a class? Yep, Jimmy. So mommy gets to see him every day for 4 weeks...that's a plus for me...I can get the inside scoop on what's going on and what his freakin problem is. Maybe I'm being greedy-maybe I'm being pushy-maybe I'm being inconsiderate-but it's just hard for me to let someone off the hook without them teling me the truth about why they were being jerks. It drives me crazy when people leave things unsaid...or say something then do the complete opposite without an explanation. I can't stand it. I have to know why-because I told him that I didn't want to waste my time trying to pursue something that wasn't going to work (since I live so far away, etc. etc...) so I needed to know if he liked me and he said yes, and that I needed to invest my time into making this work. So what happened? That was the last day I talked to him...I think I have a right to be pushy and inconsiderate. He'll get over it.
Alright, onto other news, I watched Oil Storm tonight and it was so good! It showed how much power we give oil and it's ridiculous. We need to find alternative sources of energy and stop worrying about finding the cheapest stuff. I found it funny that they did a clip in the news about Hybrid cars and how you think they might save you money, but they actually cost you more money...who gives a crap? The cars are more environment friendly and energy efficient and with gas prices going up, no matter what kind of car you have, you'll pay about the same. The government is always worrying about spending money, but what happens if our oil is cut off? I bet the government will have wished they had invested in finding other energy sources because you'll still have to spend a lot of money to fix the problem, etc. etc.....this all reminds me of the movie "The Day After Tomorrow". This is all making my head hurt. It makes me upset. But what can ya do but sit back and watch people screw everything up? Pop some popcorn!
