Nutcracker Cast!

Hey everyone! I just wanted to make a quick post about the Nutcracker! As (I think) I've already told you, I'm at a new studio this year, and they do the Nutcracker, which I was very excited to learn!
Last Saturday, the 8th, was the Nutcracker auditions, and Saturday, yesterday, was the day the cast list came out! I learned that I am a Snowflake, which at my age is kinda something everyone seems to do. I felt a bit disappointed to learn that (besides the scenes that literally everyone is in) I wasn't doing anything else, even understudying (except for Flowers...see, if you're not in Snow, you understudy for a Snowflake, and if you're not in Flowers, you understudy for a Flower).
Let me back up for a minute and do a little explaining. The cast list that came out is for the older kids, which basically dominate the second act. The couple levels that do the Nutcracker below the Intermediate-Advanced levels are in the Party scene, and a little bit in the second act.
Okay, now continuing on. I am happy to be a Snowflake, really I am. But I just wish I had a little more that I could do. What am I supposed to do after the Snow and Flower dances are done being learned?  Sit in one of the studios and watch while doing Thera-Band exercises? My feet and legs would be really strong if that's what happened. I just really want to be really committed, but I can't show that very well in my situation.
But instead of being depressed all the time, I am going to write down the Snow and Flowers dances, and making sure that I know them really well in case I have to go in as a Flower. I'm going to have my parts, real and understudy, completely memorized. And maybe even learn one of the dances like the Spanish, Russian, or Chinese. I will also work very hard in class, to prove even more that I am a committed dancer.

I'll post updates on rehearsal and classes soon!

Should I? Tell Me! + Dance Update

Hey everyone!
I don't know about you, but I started school this week, and so far, it's not bad. But school is school...not something that you guys probably care to read about. So instead, I shall update you on  my dance life! This year, I am starting at a new studio, and I'm really excited, especially because they do a Nutcracker! Classes start next week, but tomorrow is the Nutcracker auditions so that rehearsals can start right away. I haven't seen any of their Nutcracker productions, so I don't know exactly what to expect at my age, or what parts I have a shot at. But I will maybe update before I leave, but I will definitely after I get back and tell you what it was like.
On I different note, I have I question that I asked in the past, and wanted to bring it up again because I didn't get any response. The question is: should I make fashion blog? I've tossed the idea around a bit, but haven't made any decisions. The reason I bring it up is that a person I know created a tumblr, and she had this idea that everyday of that month she will put her iPod on shuffle, and whatever song comes on inspires her outfit that day. I really like the idea a lot. I thought of some options, too. I could make a whole separate blog, or I could have a side series on this blog basically doing what the other person is doing, but not just getting inspiration from music, but from other things too. What those would be, I don't know. But please please PLEASE tell me what you think! If this won't interest you guys, then I won't do it, or I'll just make a separate blog, and designate this one to my dance/theater/everyday life posts.

Thanks for taking the time to read!
