saying hello to goodbye's

I am saying goodbye to my lovely hometown here in Virginia. There are so many mixed feeling bottled up and going to be released in 3 days! Im going to be a student at Butler University this fall hoping to start dancing into a career! Although how exciting it may seem, I am also leaving far away from my home, friends, and family. Moving here 4 years ago to this cultured place, I have learned so much and it has formed who I am today. From not knowing a single person in high school, to making the best of friends that shared my stressful to memory-filled days. I have gotten so close to my ballet family since now I live 2 minutes away from the studio. I cannot believe I am leaving a place where I have grown up all my life, called it my second home and made a second family. But of course they will always be my family no matter how far apart we are. I have learned so much from my ballet teacher, everything that I need to know from ballet to living life. She put such an amazing perspective to look at life thru my heart and I would never take any minute being with her for granted.

But now, as I finish the sappy goodbye card, it is time to space pack my winter sweaters and get on the road! (or i should say plane) I realize even though going to this college is taking one huge risk that will probably determine the rest of my life, there has to be some reason why God wanted me to go this route and keep dancing. Butler's Dance Program here I come!
