DC Spring Concert



Dance company has been a big part of my high school experience. I think it's so important to be involved in something extracurricular with your school. It's motivation, involvement, and a deeper and more fun way of learning that often relates more to your occupation.
I made such great friendships that extended beyond dance and the studio. I learned how to work with others, how to follow and lead, how to choreograph, about college dance programs, about the elements of modern dance, and how to be a dancer who doesn't just entertain, but communicates something to the audience using movement. I learned to be unified with the other girls, and when and how to stand out.
Uniqueness was valued in dance company. Progression, research, dedication, practice and kindness as well.
I'm so grateful for the opportunities and experiences from DC. Concert was so much fun and so much work. I'm so happy with how my dance turned out and wonder at how it came to the finished product. Most of it was trial and error, happy accidents, experimenting, etc. My dancers were so awesome to try whatever I threw at them and always dance to their fullest and work hard.
Dancing with Ruby was so fun, even though we weren't in any of the same dancers except the entire group dances! We got to choreograph for Winter Concert together and spend 4th (Art History) and 8th period together every day. Ruby is so incredibly kind and patient. She was always willing to help everyone on DC; lending money when they forgot, going to get a prop they needed, lending hairspray, helping tie ribbons or fix costumes, never gossiping, etc. She's a gem!!!!
Thank you to everyone that came and supported Ruby and I! It meant so much to us!

HOLIDAYS

I was so happy the Mijatovic family came to visit! Even though we're not related my blood, we're family! My lovely grandparents The newlyweds invited us and their friends to see the lights at Temple Square, then enjoy some pie and hot cocoa at their adorable apartment, conveniently located right by the temple. 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...
