hooray for dancing!

well, after last week when all i really wanted to do was take a break from dancing, i'm loving dance again. today was so nice! i made comp alternate, which i'm not ecstatic about, but i'm not upset, either. i figure, it means i get to learn more parts, pay less, and probably dance just as much, if not more, than the regulars. i also get to learn all the different parts in the (probably very cool) no doubt/gwen stefani routine. so yeah, it's all good. and then after dance, a bunch of us (emily, lily, kevin, trevor, david, chris, and i) went to earl's and hung out there 'till they kicked us out at 1am. that was the nicest part, hanging out with fun dancer people and chatting and playing the cliff game and getting into tickle fights and doing massage trains and dancing in the middle of earl's. so yes, quite fun and cuddly. i finally feel like i fit in with people, and i'm finally getting my full share of hugs. i was also getting picked on by the guys, but in all honesty, i can't complain.

i do wish i could prevent myself from developing crushes on fellow dancers...i feel one coming on, but i really don't need the drama of having a crush on a team member. hmmm...must figure something out about that one.

on a slightly different note, it's funny that chris doesn't believe that i'm actually fairly shy. i've been really outgoing with the dancers lately, which is weird for me, but in a good way, and he's around me mostly when i'm around people like kevin or emily or lily, who bring the hyperness out. i like not being the quiet girl, i realize, but it just feels weird being one of the loud ones in a group of dancers. it's nice, really. i'm losing the shell. hooray for bci.

ok, off to shower and to bed.
