IB is Over!!!!!
Yes ladies and gentlemen, the time has come at last to celebrate. I never have to take another IB test ever again!! I can't tell you the relief I feel. For those of you who have taken the tests, you know this feeling. It feels wonderful. Now I can sit back and do nothing....which I don't know if that's a good thing either. In any case, now I don't have to worry about what will be on the test and I won't have to be responsible for knowing things either. The only things I have left to worry about school wise is my senior project in English, the bridge project in Physics, and the Musical Theatre performances. This makes me really happy :)
I went to my first full day of Tuesday dance classes yesterday. Let me say that I pretty much couldn't move this morning. I was in a lot of pain. Not only had I not danced in a while, but we had 2 extra hard classes and a third class where we danced a lot. I was sooo tired after the 2 hours and 45 minutes were done. But it felt really good to be back in class. I am almost caught up in learning recital pieces. I just need to learn Thursday's routines and then I'll know all of the dances.
Today in ballet, Lynn came in to talk about Nutcracker next year. I had just watched Nutcracker before I came to dance and was sad about not doing it already. Then she came in and made me even more sad. I think I am probably the only one at the studio who truly loves Nutcracker. I mean, as sad as it is, I would miss a year of college so that I could do Nutcracker with the studio. This is how much I love it. And I didn't get to do it my senior year. But hey, I'm not bitter. And speaking of Nutcracker, I have noticed an interesting pattern concerning Nutcracker and Dance Team. Whether this has any relevance or not, I don't know, but I just thought it was interesting. Out of the four years I have done dance team, the years we have placed are the years we did Nutcracker. The years we took off to do other productions, we didn't place. Interesting? I think so. But like I said, I don't know if the two are related, but I just thought that it was interesting. Hmm...I just said "interesting" a lot. I should find a different word...but I'm too lazy. Anywho, next year is going to be tough. I'll have time enough to come back and watch Nutcracker. I don't know if I'll be able to handle it. I'll probably cry. Yes, I know, I'm weird. But I love Nutcracker sooo much, especially the studio's version. I wish I was only a junior. This way I could do Nutcracker next year and end my high school career doing Nutcracker. Why couldn't they have postponed the every other year thing just one more year?
Crucible is over. It was a lot of fun. I am so glad I was able to be apart of this production. It was great bonding time for me. I was able to become even closer to the people I was alreaqdy close with and I met new people too. I loved having Dad be apart of the cast. It was a nice way to end my high school acting career. I was able to experience major acting growths throughout the cast, including myself. I experienced a new environment in which to act. I think my mind will take a while to go back to the proscenium stage...it'll stay on the thrust stage for a bit.
That's about all I can think of right now. I'll type again soon...especially now, since IB testing is done with and I can go back to my unhealthy style of staying up later than I should :)
