Well, I'm in Pittsburgh! Heading out to Station Square soon <3 I gotta tell you though, this week has not been my best. Monday I can't remember what happened, but it just wasn't anything great. Tuesday Mr. Brad almost left me stranded after I woke up at 9am and was running a bit behind schedule, then yelled at everyone in the studio, and afterwards called me into the office to lecture me on how i'm too fat, getting lazy, and on the verge of being "too old to dance". Awesome. He's right though; I am getting fat and am SO close to being too old =[ I thought I was working hard though! It's just killing me that I'm trying my best and they say I'm not doing anything. So I try harder, and they still say I'm being lazy. So I step it up even more till my feet are bleeding, my lungs feel like they're going to collapse, and i'm losing toe-nails and guess what; it's still not enough.

Wednesday (yesterday) I went in, worked harder, guess they were somewhat happier with my performance level, and then left. Mom took me to an urgent care center though cause I hurt my leg doing a leap. Now I've got a stress fracture in my shin ='[ It hurt so bad to walk yesterday. When the savelli's find out they'll just tell me to "suck it up and keep working". Then my sister and I left for pittsburgh. Guess what; we got a flat tire 45 minutes into the drive. Yup, so we got to sleep in the car until a place opened up at 8am, got a new tire, and finally were back on the road. Did I mention we broke down around midnight? fantastic.

But I'm here now, and it's wonderful <3 And besides, my week wasn't all bad; I had the best 4 days I've had in a LONG time this past week; Saturday through Tuesday. I went out with a friend, and we went out the next day, and the next, and the next. He's leaving for college on Thursday, but I'm REALLY glad for the time we hung out this past week. We're going out on Tuesday, too.

I miss Monica! I haven't seen her in weeks! =[

Okkkk so it's been quite some time since I've posted. Sorry about that. I was gonna wait until my room was finished and post a picture, buttt that's taking a lot longer than expected =[ Uhmmm basically you haven't missed much; all I've done for the past week is dance. 45 hours last week, and already got 11 in today. So yeah, basically that's been my life. Today I my knees gave out on me a couple times, my hips wouldn't let me kick high, and my toes started bleeding. Yay? Seriously though, I really am enjoying myself, strange as that may be.

Haven't talked to Jon much lately =[ I miss him and have been so busy. I feel like I should force him to hang out with me soon... just for old times sake =] I guess I owe you a picture of me and some friends. Here, you get me, Mike, and Monica on 4th of July. I miss them so muchhhh! <3

I think I'm going to bed soon. I'm in rediculous amounts of pain and doing it all again tomorrow (from like 10-730). I need to give my body a break =[ Luckily I get one when I go to Pittsburgh and Virginia this week! Wednesday-Monday I'll be gone <3 I'm SOOO excited! I've been looking forward to this trip since may/june 2010! yeah, over a year. Kinda sad, but I've got good reasons =]

Ok, bed time. I'll try and be more consistent with blogging.

Ok, so I'm slacking off. But who can blame me? In the past 10 days I've moved into my new house, painted my room, finished work, gone to CP, barely slept, gone to a concert, been keeping up with my classes, and now i'm doing dance camp. Suffice to say I've been busy.

Well the concert was amazing! May I just say The Decemberists put on the best show i've been to in a LONG time?! Gah! so much happiness!

The new house is pretty much the bestest ever! It's so big! But my room is ground-level and my sister forgot her keys on saturday, so she started banging on my window at 3am. I almost peed my pants I was so scared. But hey, nobody died so I guess that's good, right?

Saturday I went to Cedar Point with Patrick, his brother, and Moira. It was so much fun! however I've discovered that wearing converse is a bad idea. More support is needed on a dancers feet. Oi!

Speaking of dancers feet, I'm exhausted! I danced non-stop from 10-7 today. Talk about being active!  But I'm loving dance camp <3 Tomorrow I wont be able to move, I'm sure of it! The cost of dancing is pain though. If it were easy and meant for the weak, undedicated population it'd be called football, or golf or something like that. But it's not; it's DANCE!

I saw my recital video today. May I just say how awesome it was? I mean, yeah, I hated like half of my time on stage but it really wasn't as awkward looking as I felt doing things =] I miss recital so much <3 it majorly bums me out that I dont get another performance until next spring! =[ Oh welll, just more time to improve! =D

I'm really friggin' tired, so i'm going to go eat and text Nick and what-not. peace out!
