I miss the long nights rehearsing.
I miss the sense of community, having friends with one thing in common and enjoying each other's presence because of it.
I miss the feel when you're backstage.
I miss the adrenaline rush right before a performance.
I miss the natural high I get when I'm dancing onstage.
And most of all, I miss the pounds I lose whenever I do. (Okay... hahaha, what?! It's true! Well, maybe not "most of all" but I
do miss dancing, hehe.)
I guess another reason would be that I've been dancing since, well, eversince I could remember. It's one thing I know I'm really good at and it's something I really love to do. Now that I'm in college, I don't get to do it as often anymore. More like not at all actually. And it's killing me.
2005 was a year full of performances which I hope won't be my last. There was the dance for Passion Play. Summer was my performance peak in 2005 with my recital in Intermediate Streetdance and being part of the opening number. After that, it was steady with studies first. I did audition for the univerisity's dance varsity and got accepted but soon had to quit because my mom didn't allow me to rehearse. My last performance for this year was just a few days ago for sis Claire's debut.
It was there, during that last performance, that I realized how much I missed it. They took figure skating away from me already, I hope no one will take dancing away from me, too. :)
