This past Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, the Judge Memorial Dance Company put on a concert. This show, named Mind, Body and Soul, sought to basically bring out wonders of the mind, body and the soul. Usually when Judge puts on these performances, I would be sitting among the many auditorium seats. But this year, I was one of many dancers performing.

This was my first year doing dance concert. I do dance in my room, but I don't usually get credit for that. Over my four years at Judge, I've always loved watching the concerts. I've always had an admiration for the dancers who seemed to move so gracefully and with such fluidity. I also envied them because I couldn't do it like them. I absolutely love dancing, even though I don't dance often or competitively. I love the feeling of dancing. I love moving to the beat of music.

Although I wasn't in 5 or 6 dances in a row like some dance company members, I had a good time. As cheesy as it sounds, I've built bonds with girls I wouldn't have talked to other wise. I am pretty happy to have tried something my senior year. Although it did take a lot of my time for 4 months, the hard work was worth it. Personally I've learned somethings about myself.  I realized, though, how much I've missed out. I loved dance, yet I didn't pursue it til senior year. I guess I can use this advice and apply it to my years in college. I will try everything and anything I love, anything new, so I can fully enjoy my college years..

Nyakuiy,

I love when you said "I've always had an admiration for the dancers who seemed to move so gracefully and with such fluidity. I also envied them because I couldn't do it like them."  When I saw Dance Concert on Thursday I felt the exact same way.  The ironic thing was when I was watching you dance I thought "She is so good, even though this is her first time dancing in a show." Of course all the dancers were amazing. It really amazes me that not only can dancers dance so fluidly, but they can make up these dances in their head. They can see what they want a dance to look like and make it a reality through other dancers.

Great job in Dance Concert and nice post.
