(no subject)
So, I had an real thought provoking moment yesterday while reading a fan letter in the Grimmerie. Don't stop reading this just because I said that, this has nothing to do with the musical. Ok? Good. So anyways, this girl was a dancer. She loved it more than anything. Then in high school she started to look at life more "realistically" and figured dance wasn't a sure thing sooo.. oh well. She'd be a teacher. Is this sounding familiar at all? Yeah so I thought about it and was like, dang who wrote this, me subconciously? Or what!? Then I continued reading and she said screw being a teacher that wasn't what she loved. She moved to NY and danced. She's trying to go pro. Why can't I do that? Oh yeah no ballet. SCREW THIS! I was really upset by the fact that some people really do get everything they want. I wish I could say screw teaching I want to be a dancer! But I know that I'm not good enough to dance professionally, not even close. I can't do half the things you're supposed to be able to do, such as fouettes, a zillion and one pirouettes, etc. :( I want to dance in college, but even if I do take ballet (which I'm planning on doing :D) and such there, I'll never make up for my lack of ballet when I was younger. I just wish there was some way to keep dancing! DANG! Why can't I be like Ms. Angela?! She's a teacher and a dance teacher! Some people are so lucky. :/ I'd leave you with this sweet quote that the letter ended with but I can't remember it. :( So whatever. I've got stuff to do/think about.
Much love! <3
