Dancing For The Soul

The feelings of a dancer.

Dancers are artist

If a stage were a canvas they would leave behind a beautiful mural

Eliciting happiness, excitement, sadness, anger, thrills and power

But all in glory and creation

You are with the music, a piece of it and the dance

You are raw

You are not human. Strictly dancer

A performer

You are color and life

Your body may be lost in the music but your identity is completely found

The more passionately you move the more flowers bloom inside you

Your intensity radiates so far it's impossible for anyone to ignore it

When you cannot escape anywhere else you can go to dance

It revives and gives you are a reason to smile again

Whether you have all the technique in the world

Or just enjoy the freedom

It is all fun, all good

There is no need to think just dance

Just feel the music and go

Something inside you is unleashed and you have no desire to tie it back up

When words fail dance does not

It speaks louder than you ever could

Dances are stories

They have their own life, their own odyssey

They tell comedy and tragedy

Bringing pain-relief and strength

Dance teachers have brought a deeper meaning to your life

Something not entirely explainable, but completely felt with every fiber

A way of expression, of presentation

A happiness amongst the people that have seen growth in your movement

A safe haven where as long as you put your heart into your art all will be well

When the world beats down in terror it is a shield

You could go in with angst and come out with euphoria

The idea of stopping is gut wrenching

No matter the blood, bruises and pains

It is all for a greater purpose

For your soul's expression of passion

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
