Okay so the enormity of today's class just hit me. For over 10 years I have taught you every saturday 11:00-12:30... I am sad, nostalgic, happy, proud... I was in high school when we started this journey! Thank you so much for growing up with me. I love you all. Now it's time for sporadic rehearsals and weird concert dance! Evolution Movement Co.
Word!
Love,
Jules:)
So for the first time in.. forever I go on myspace and thats what I found.. I guess I've just been ignoring the fact that I'm really not going to be part of SOSD Company Dancers anymore. I've spent hours and hours a week for the past 18 years with Shannon and Julie and its quickly coming to an end.. all because of Disney. Don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic about doing the program, but lately I just don't know if I'm truly ready to leave SOSD. For 12 years I've spent my Monday nights at the studio and the other night I went in to drop something off during what used to be my class and it felt like I got hit by a ton of bricks. Most of my friends learning new choreography for next year. I felt like I was missing out. I mean for the next month I'll still have rehearsals for nationals but after that.. theres nothing left.
I knew the day was coming.. and when it finally came I didnt want to think about it, and I couldnt figure out why I was so miserable.. until I saw Julies bulliten.. I guess I just need someone to tell me that I'm doing the right thing by leaving.. I know I'm not the only one thats leaving something behind, I'm not even the only one leaving THIS behind. but like Katie, I don't ever want to walk through those doors and have people be excited to see me.. and I know that inevitably its going to happen..how can I leave for 5 months and expect it not to happen..
wow this is depressing.. sorry, I just had to get it out..
But like they say.. "as always I am proud to be a Shannon O'Brien Dancer"
hmm If it wasn't for Shannon and Julie I never would have known about the program.. or had the confidence to audition. so at least theres one good thing =)
