Choices

Again: I've no idea where I got this from... but it works :)

Ah the life of a dancer...

Don't get me wrong, I love my job. Teaching is amazing and there's nothing like getting to know the kids and seeing them grow year after year and the feeling of being a part of the community.

But then I watch SYTYCDC and read other dancers' tweets, etc and the only thing that goes through my mind is: God I wish I hadn't given that up. And I wouldn't have done if I hadn't lost faith in myself entirely... (and yes thanks, mean principal teacher at my dance school that was mostly your fault)

I've always been into choreography. I've got a lot to learn for sure but I have so many ideas that would be amazing on professional dancers and don't translate well on student dancers (not that they don't try or look good) but you know how it is...

*Le sigh.

I'm trying to figure out time to do both... buy a house here and teach mon - thurs then rent a flat/room in a house in van and dance/choreograph there at the weekends.

(Side note: of course doing this would effectively mean I couldn't buy the studio BUT I can do that when I'm older with more experience right?)

Granted I'd have NO time left to myself but I'd be ridiculously happy.

Okay...

...Let's get on this.
