So Long HCC

Well here we are, the end of the semester im closing a Chapter in my life and opening a new one. The past year and a half have been some of the best learning experiences of my life. HCC dance department really opened my eyes and heart into a new style of dance I would never imgine myself doing. It took me a while to accept it and though I cannot see myself doing ballet and modern for the rest of my life as a carreer, I will forsure bring the technique and certain things i learn into where im going in dance. Iv been lucky enough to study under some of the most genious people in dance. I think I took my dance education for granted, because as I look back the only "teaching" I can remember is from Claire Richard and Acosta.

By way of my development I am for sure not where I want to be. Im torn on what I want to do, I know I want to dance for the rest of my life but I dont know if modern and ballet is what I want to pursue. Actually, I know its not. Easier said then done to pick up and leave. I know I want to study Jazz and unfortunatly there are no programs in florida. I think I might just major something different at USF and then get a Masters in Jazz studies. I have the summer to decide, hopefully somthing will click. HEY maybe ill go all summer and then realise ballet and modern are what I love and what I want to pursue at USF. Only time will tell.

By body I feel is healthy suprisingly, because for some reason I always get sick, over tired and over worked. And let me tell you I have had quit a semester, alot has gone on and alot has been accomplished. Iv worked really hard and done the best I can, though I feel I did slack in ballet. OOOPPPSSSS but overall I feel accomplished, I graduate this semester and its been along time coming and im so glad its here. I hope that when I go to USF I can fully focuis on what I need to do, and figure out exactly what I want to do with my life.

I feel iv always had this idea. im going to graduate work on a cruise ship and then open my own studio. I still have that dream, but to run a studio a little different then what iv known. I want to combine what I feel is my forte, thats Jazz choreography and what I have learned through my college dance experience. In a sense combine a classical and commercial track.


So thank you so very very much Acosta Richard and Claire for lessons learned I will keep for the rest of my life.
