I had a dream
I was at my dance comp in March. This is the first year I'm in category 3, I do a variation en pointe. When I got to the stage the judges asked me to say what variation I was doing. I tried so hard to speak and I could feel my throat in pain bc I was trying so hard to speak but nothing came out. They looked at me.
One of the judges asked if I actually knew the material and had me do a 5 minute class on basic dance material. Which I did fine. By now all the other competitors were watching me as I should've done my variation in 2 minutes or less. Finally they get my variation and I start dancing. I did so bad!!
I wasn't all the way on my platform and my balances at the end were bad. I even heard one of the judges yell, "who taught you to dance? You can't even comprehend the music correctly!" I tried so hard to explain but my voice wasn't there. Eventually I got my voice back and was able to speak and I apologized.
I hope that won't happen when I go to the comp this year. I hope variation looks good, my Pointe work is great, and I can speak.
