Warehouse Project Review

We got a review! Sixth Day Dance Company got a review of their show: Warehouse Project!

  The link is HERE!
That's so cool!
It was probably the most challenging show that I have ever danced in and it really wasn't possible for us to dance it without the grace of God covering over all that we did. We essentially started out on Saturday evening with a show runthroug: full dress, full hair, full makeup and lighting. Dancing as we would in the show. Then there was the actual show of the evening. So we danced that, and the next day there were two more shows! A total of FOUR shows. They were about 50minutes long each, with improvisation danced for about 1/2 an hour before the show even began. I danced for about 10-ish minutes before the show (staggered because the dancers from the first piece danced in rotation for that time) then for about 40-ish minutes in the show. WIN!
Unfortunately on Friday I had over-extended my pectorals practicing for a friend's choreography and I was only able to dance those shows by God's provision. I quite seriously couldn't use my arms after Saturday's final show. and There was JUST enough ibuprofen in the bottle that my sweety gave me to last through the final show on Sunday. It was a very emotional time for all.

Wow. I'm still praising God that We made it!




Spiderbots and Spamflies

Sometimes I think that I'm actually more superpopular than I actually am, I check the statistics on my websites to check up on who has seen me, or how much I have been see.
I thought that the other day "Wow, I must be quite popular to have such an amazing number of people look at my blog daily..."
(those were the days when I had 3 people or even 4 people viewing it)
Then I realized that more often than not, search engines will link to photos or keywords and random spambots will go hunting through the cyberspace to find randomess and real people probably don't read this on a daily basis, except for perhaps a select 2 people.

Not that it matters.

But I found it interesting.

holidays



This is what I feel like right now:



Stores are playing Christmas music here.
It's too early, but quite nice.



Procrastination

Ok, so instead of applying for jobs, here I am updating my blog! I realized that I would much rather be payed to do this than to do a job that I would be people pleasing for. You see, I'm a people-pleaser, well, I guess I just said that didn't I?
Silly Carole, You're silly.
Gah! Redundancies!
Just did a little research and bloggers usually get paid to write about advertising things, goodness! I'm not entirely sure that I would be sufficiently satisfied with writing about shoes, or zippers, or the like.
And I'm stuck trying to find that song that I just heard on the radio, it isn't working!
(now that I have found a ridiculous number of amazing songs with the cool name, but not the right lyrics)
TOOooooootally distracted.
This is what I found on my computer from ages ago:


What I feel like on a daily basis once I've finished an enormous task that requires quite a bit of me.
Like this last show!
The Warehouse Project show presented by Sixth Day Dance Company was quite a hit! Seriously!
This was the best and most challenging show that we have ever done, and I was pushed to my limits in order to perform. But it was that challenge that kept me going. My friend Elizabeth commented that we dance for the challenge of it, not to simply release tension or emotion by dancing, so it's more of a intelectual stimulus, and physical challenge as we conserve energy in order to perform to the fullest extent of our ability by the end of the evening.

THIRD TIME ONLINE JOB APPLICATION, this is the third time I've tried to upload my resume...
