And it all begins

My dance program started today. Usually we would have our technique class today, but for our first class we just got to know everyone and orientation. Then my roommates and I took Joanne's street jazz and then her jazz class. It was unreal, kicked my butt. I'm gunna be so sore tomorrow. 
Speaking of my roommates.. Three of us from ITP moved into a basement suite in Westside Vancouver. It's been awesome, they're really cool girls; Danee and Courtney. The place is nice, but it was super dirty when we moved in so we've spent the last three days cleaning. We take the bus downtown for classes and so far we've been strugglin with it. We can never seem to find the right bus, so today we were late for our first meeting.. Good first impression, oops.
I can't wait to take some more classes and figure everything out!

From the small town to the big city


I'm starting this blog for when I move to Vancouver. I'm so excited to move but also really scared. I've always lived in a small town, and then when I went away to school I was in an even smaller town. The past year at school you could say I was pretty sheltered, and never really had to take care of myself. I don't even count it as really living on my own. Vancouver is a big, scary city. This summer I lived in Kelowna, which is a city a lot bigger than Salmon Arm. It kind of got me used to living in the city, but I really miss the small town life. As much as I love my small town, I'm so excited to live in the big city. The reason I'm moving to Vancouver is to dance. I got into a training program called ITP, Intensive Training Program. It's a year program training dancers to become professionals. It's gunna be such a great thing for me, and exactly what I need right now. I can't wait to start! I'm moving September 2nd and the classes start the 6th.

I'll letcha know how it goes!!!
