Nationals!

So this was my very last competition ever, unless my plans change, and I'm pretty excited about how it all went down! In samba rumba I competed with my friend Eric Perry and we got called back, only once, but still, I thought it was exciting because I never get called back and this was at nationals competing against tonz and tonz of dancers and only half were chosen to dance again! Team match didn't go over so hot but I'm aight with that because I just had fun being able to dance in it! I danced American Waltz with Stephen Clawson and it was wicked fun! To start the dance I blew him a kiss, thank you coaches Adam and Jeanne, and then we just waltzed all around the dance floor with our teammates cheering us on and bowing down to us when we would dance past! The most exciting part of it all and the whole reason I went to nationals was for Our standard medley! Last year we were fourth place in division two, which is not very good, but this year we moved all the way up to fourth place in division one!! Which is very excellent indeed! I've had so much fun this year working on that dance! Its wicked hard and fast but so much fun and our hair and makeup were so much cooler than anyone elses and you can't beat lime green standard dresses! This was definitely an exciting event and I will miss the thrill of competing but there is no way I will ever stop dancing!
