BIG NEWS! I finally got a job!
Next year I will be a Trainee with the Milwaukee Ballet, also known as a dancer in the Milwaukee Ballet II. I am very excited about it; I enjoyed the summer program alot, and I think (and hope) the year will be a good continuation of the experience.
Thank you to all who were praying for me. I decided not to go to Moody next year, (I guess I'm stating the obvious now,) partly because of the distance, but mostly because I felt like God's will for me to stay in ballet for the time being, and see how he can use me in the dance world. Maybe someday I'll have the opportunity to go to Moody; I still think that would be an amazing experience.
I've been home for a few days, and slowly reverting to being-at-home mode. I've been on cloud nine whenever I get to spend time with Danny; it's so nice to see him again. I saw him a few times during the summer program, but it's just not the same. Long distance relationships have few pro's and many con's, but its all worth it to know such an amazing person as Daniel... I know most of you haven't met him, and really, you are all missing out. :)
I'm in the process now of trying to find a job for next year, (in the fashion of a true procrastinator - "now" meaning "as soon as I get around to it"), as my pitiful stipend is nowhere near enough to live on. (I qualify for food stamps.) This is complicated by my 9-6 M-F dancing schedule, and the occasional week of late nights in the theater. I have been looking for an apartment however, though it's kind of at a standstill because my future roommate Bret isn't sure when she's going to end her visit with her mother to move in with me. That's okay, I'll probably just stay with relatives until she does.
That's plenty for now! Thanks for reading!
P.S. I got a pet rat! His name is Peanut, he's six weeks old, grey and white, and adorable...
