 The last performance did go well! I only had my  jazz dance, but I lingered backstage to watch Lexie and Ruby's ballet dance, they both did amazingly! Xanthe was the cutest leader of the Pirates and Ari did great in ballet and modern.
We didn't find out on Monday, but on Thursday we found out our ballet placements. Thankfully, I moved up and I'm in Advanced 1. Ruby skipped a level and made it to Intermediate 111! Looks like we're both on track to make it to Company! We were so relieved! We worked so hard this year in dance and we're both in love with ballet. I tried to work on using my stomach muscles, having energy in my arms, and getting a double on pointe this year. I always have things to work on, but I feel like I really improved those things this year. My new goals for next year are to get a triple, get a six-pack:), get my middle splits, make my back more flexible, and learn the combinations faster. I can't wait to go back to Clytie's, but I don't want summer to end either!
Abby, me, and Ruby. Abbs is such a great dancer and friend!:)

Such fun! Thanksgiving with the Siskins ....And everybody else ;)
The world is big. It can be scary. It can be a lot of things, a lot of adjectives because well, it's the WORLD. But there is so much  good  in it. Make it your mission to notice the good in every day life. One thing that you can count on is the sun. It rises, it's warm, it gives light. Things we need. Things that are good, life sustaining, bright. Happiness is not a side affect of a perfect life. Waiting to be happy is just plain silly. Happiness wants to come into your life, in fact, it already has, so acknowledge and befriend it. Make it deeper and better with gratitude, consistence and effort. The good in the world is apparent and abundant, just like happiness. Focusing on the good doesn't mean we ignore the sad stuff going on, refuse to ever watch the news, or be ignorant of pressing matters around the world. It just means that you cling to hope, never give up, fight discouragement and let the good into your life. Let the good in, put some good out, let light radiate fr...
