Ballet Shoes

My sister and I take dance classes, downtown. Pearl takes ballet, with all of the other excited "ballerinas." She wears a pink leotard, pink tights, and a tutu. And you can't forget the ballet shoes.
The first few weeks of ballet Pearl wore white ballet slippers. They were very cute. Most of the time the shoes are lying around waiting to be twirled, and spun. But I remember when I was her age whenever the last scene in the Nutcracker came on I would try to copy "Clara." Even when I was younger than Pearl on Saturday nights I would put on my Minnie Mouse tutu and dance to The Lawrence Welk Show that still airs at 7:00 PM. Once, while I was waiting for my Jazz class to start, I saw Pearl do her "princess spins" all alone with the teacher. The other kids in the back waiting were really scared. It was very amusing to look at the scene.

This is my second year of dance. I am active in Jazz, Tap, and Hip Hop.

Sparks fly

As you all know most likely Harry Potter the 7th is coming out this weekend!The Harry Potter series were my favorite book ever for a while. Then i got into the Dairy of a wimpy kid series and so on. I am hoping to see it at mid-night on Friday.
In the Harry Potter Harry goes to a magical school called Hogwarts. All of the books are divided into each year. The movies were a huge hit. This Friday the last movie is coming out. If you are interested in watching the movie it is showing in Brockport New York at The Strand.

We're number one

Yesterday J and I got 1st place in quizzing. We went to Gowanda at the Free Methodist Church. In case you're wondering quizzing is a sport (to me). You jump on seats to answer Bible questions or quote verses. In this case the book we are working on is John.

Anyways J and I are a two person team (most of the teams have 3 players). We had a record of one loss and the rest Wins! :-) I am really psyched that I quizzed out for the first time. Quizzing out is answering 5 questions right in one quiz. Each quiz has 15 questions.

Next month the quiz is in Albion if you are interested in watching go to the big white church in Albion NY.

Scary Sixth Grade

Well it's that time of year. School shopping, pencils, folders, books--the list could go on and on. But too bad for me (and the rest of my class) because we were the top of the food chain at elementary school. But now we're just a bunch of helpless sixth graders. I mean, getting shoved into a locker does not sound that fun to me. Not to mention the bullying.

Orientation was great (besides the fact I couldn't get my locker open). I mean they showed us everything--the gym, bathroom, library, etc. My absolute favorite part was The Cafeteria. Pizza every day, salad, soft pretzels--yummy. The absolute worst news to me is that sixth graders are not allowed to be in the fall play! Now, I love acting, singing, dancing--you name it. Fortunately, our church is having a Christmas play.

So for all you sixth graders out there, here's some advice:

1. Be cool and calm.
2. Don't wear anything loud.
3. The most important advice I have to offer is:

SURVIVE the first day of school.

Lunch Clubs

As I got in the lunch line at 1:15, my friends Carly and Emily stood next to me. We waited for the line to move up. Then a small group of cheerleaders came over and invited Emily to join their club. One of the cheerleaders whispered in Emily's ear. All I heard was "Vi and Carly." Once we got our lunches, the cheerleaders sat down at one table and Emily sat down with them. I was outraged! I sat down with Carly. I said, "Carly, why don't we have our own club?" And Carly said, "Yeah, it could be called 'The Peace Club.'" I got out a piece of paper and wrote on the back: "Members of The Peace Club." We turned around. The cheerleaders made a face. We made a face back at them. The we each wrote our names on the piece of paper. Two of the football players signed it, too. Then 3 more people signed. Then we finished our lunch, feeling victorious.
