What I Did to Make It Better

          Well, I just took ballet my first year of high school.  I was going to audition for dance team, but I thought I'd try flag team first.  I ended up not doing it because my friend didn't make it.  I wish I did it anyway for myself.  At least I made it.  I'm really not sure why.  A lot of new people were in it.  I became Queen of Clubs instead in the paper that a friend did.

Erection of the Past

          The most important thing in my life is a mistake; two times it was hard for me to realize I have to open my mind to jumping to different conclusions.  I should have auditioned for talented theater for my first year of high school instead of talented music which I chose and auditioned for for my second year.  I should have auditioned for dance team. I should have not tried to always take what's most difficult and should have slept enough for the gifted test.  I would have been very happy today if I did these things.

          I should have remembered I was most interested in theater.  I don't remember when my mom told me about the talented program, but I heard of it from school.  We didn't know how far in advance I would have to go to audition.  I would not want to skip school in junior high for talented theater.  I remember my mom was wondering where I should go and that I took the gifted test in time.  I'm most sorry I didn't make it because I was too tired from school then.

          The other thing I should have done was audition for dance team.  My Oma visited and I said that's why I won't do it, since my Oma was visiting in the summer.  I thought I would do it next year, but I notice that I only liked the way high school was treating me the first year and not thereafter.

          I should have had a better schedule overall.  I still wonder how you could do dance and theater together, but these days theater is different than it is in high school.  I should have omitted classes like Spanish and being in a rush to take Career Orientation.

          These things would have been easy to fix.  What's more I should have asked for a computer when we moved and I had my own room than for a piano.  I just got a book of piano classics, and it's hard yet fun.  I should have taken regular dance class along with ballet.  I only took ballet once a week in high school and some of junior hi.  I wish I did cheerleading, though.
