I very strangely took two ballet classes with teachers who are not Yoda - (due to scheduling problems.) It is funny - when in a class not comprised of all ABT dancers - I'm apparently pretty darn good - I got a lot of really positive feedback from the teachers!!!!!! And they are actually really well respected teachers - one told me my balances were beautiful and very organic - and that I had a strong standing leg! And then a bunch of my theatre dancey friends who I never take ballet with, because I take that ridiculous ABT ballet class with Amanda - told me I had improved leaps and bounds and was beautiful - and they wished they could dance ballet like me - I told them I wished I could tap like them! LOL!
I was on the music for Patti - again - so yay progress!!!!!!!!! Hard work is yielding results!!!!!!!!!!!! Now - methinks I need a contract!:)
Anyhoo - I started "mermaid dance training" today. A lovely guy I did a showcase with last year is in Mermaid, and he is teaching me/coaching me on the dances so I can be super fierce and have a chance of getting called back/put on file. He told me they will indeed be looking for a girl I could actually replace - (last time they were replacing a five foot tall belter - this time - a 5'6 legit singer who doesnt tap and kinda looks like me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Most excellent! Now - I just need to get it! It's gonna take a lot of work, focus, and determination - but I got all those things!:) All I need now is a little pixie dust! lol. Oh - I also spoke with my tap teacher, he is gonna come to the seagull tapping sessions I have, learn the dance, and help me with it - because THAT is gonna require a LOT of help --- hahaha! But I'll get it darnit! I'll get it yet!
Red Wings WON! ONE MORE UNTIL HOPEFULLY WE WIN THE STANLEY CUP! Knock on Wood!
Tomorrow is my Tony viewing party - Kat and I spent the evening baking and cleaning - the apt. looks beautiful!:) We baked cookies and apple cake! I hope they taste most derricious! we also plotted our evil plans to woo our respective tap boys - (we both have our eyes on tap dancer - oddly --- its pure silliness - but it would be funny - and in my case - ironic...)
Alena and I put in our request for our showcase! That will be super fun! And my voice teacher comes back this week! YAY! Kat and I found some old recordings of me singing - they are scary! Mary has helped sooooo much!
Also - Angel - the tv series - is kinda lame - if Im going to analyze it - it is really interesting watching a diminuitive young beautiful girl beat up vampires in a super fierce way - it isnt so interesting watching a vampire beat up another vampire. It also was interesting watching how Buffy brought out a more sympathetic side of the vampires, it isnt really interesting watching vampires be mad at other vampires. And Spike was given an amazing valiant nobel death in Buffy, why ruin it with a return in a mediocre/bad spin off series.
Anyhoo - I have a lot of energy - and it is late - so I don't really know what to do - I suppose I should try to go to bed...
