Day 44

 I am currently sitting in the middle of a very interesting class but I can't seem to focus because I have all this energy that I don't know where to exude. All I can think about is choreography to do for auditions. Oh by the by, I am so ready to do this now you have No idea. It's crazy how much confidence comes along when you know for a fact that this is for the Lord, and it is something he wants you to do. I am so happy. I was looking for upbeat Gospel music and ended up playing "Brighter Day" by Kirk Franklin. This song is so good, I cried in the car. (I'll attach it below btw). Like wow I don't think I have worshiped so hard to a song that was so upbeat. Anyways, what was originally a search for a song to do at teen talent, turned into a search for what to do at auditions. I have one song to do for pliĆ©s, but technically, you can do that with any slow song. I'm also gonna do a grand battement warm-up to see how flexible my dancers are. Good news th...

an encouraging letter to myself

 Soph. I am currently sitting on the floor of my bedroom and figuring out choreography. I don't even know where to begin.  I have even started to look at choreography videos thinking that this is way too big for me. I came here to stop that now. Many people already have started to congratulate me as soon as I tell them that I have been presented with a choreography opportunity. No one is against this idea. If Corrie asked me to do this, it's because she thinks I am qualified and a good fit for this competition. The Lord is on my side and this is a CHRISTIAN organization. You love to dance, you love to teach dance choreo. The only thing holding you back from your full potential is your thoughts and doubts. Don't let the devil take this away from you. Feeding you lies, saying you can't do it. I can and I will do it. Just watch me. This is all literally for the glory of God and you're gonna crush it. You and your dance team. You literally have Liz helping and collabing...

Day 43

 First day of school So I was kinda nervous on how today was gonna start. Not because everything is new for today but I woke up with little to No motivation to get dressed. I would blame the weather but in the summer time i KNOW I'm gonna miss the cold. Good news though, I got to school with plenty of time in my hands. I had a full cup of coffee in my hands and I had just listened to the first five chapters of 1st Timothy. After a long prayer in the car I feel more prepared than ever to begin my fast. I get to school, go to class where I meet the coolest two ladies ever. Man I love the first day of school for one main reason: how eager everyone is to make friends. I feel like I am thriving right now. I cannot allow any stress or negativity enter my head. I just had a DELICIOUS tuna sandwich and apple slices while watching emm chamberlain videos. I have GOT to remember to bring my bible and journal to school so I can do my devotionals while eating. I don't really have that much ...

Day 42

I currently feel better than I did yesterday. Lemme give you a recap on my week:  It's the first week of January, I am on break currently and I have been doing literally nothing but waking up at 10 a.m and watching movies all day. Of course, you have the occasional cleaning of room, errands here and there, seeing a friend for coffee. But this week has been on rest. This is my version of hibernation; sleeping in, and watching movies. Unfortunately, yesterday I was in a bit of a rut. I couldn't seem to be happy so that resulted in me buying 2 new pairs of pants. I want to go back to school just to have something to do but at the same time I am not looking forward to the classes I have this semester. It's literally all core classes. I am bored but kind of don't wanna do anything about it at the same time. The good news is I saw my friend this morning as he stopped by my house. I believe we're gonna see a movie tomorrow with some friends. I just don't feel all put t...

Day 41

What a long long day. All of this is in a good way, but man I felt the need to write today. Today I was woken up at 5 am to see Argentina play against Saudi Arabia (for those of you who don't know, the World Cup is currently happening). It SUCKED to lose but whatever we don't discuss such things. Then straight from there, we finished cleaning the house to head to the airport. We're gonna get the chance to be in Argentina for two weeks and I am so so so exited. I haven't seen my family in so long. The best thing is that I love that the world cup is happening right now and that we get to experience that with my whole family. Now THAT is gonna be an experience. Now here's the downside. I am on crutches and a boot and I had to be taken in a wheelchair for most of the time. Let me just say upfront, this is not my idea of fun. I am miserable. I want to walk so bad and it's only been two days. I'm praying so hard that my foot can recover quickly. For some reason, I...
