So i jus realized, after my dance auditions i was all go about, i didnt share the outcomes. so here goes……

I ended up not going to my first one in Chicago because of my back situations, naturallly. (i wrote a lil somethin earlier bout what happened to my back). so i guess we’ll never know if i could have made that audition or not.

Next one i went to in LA in march. the trip started off REALLY bad, so i was sure it was a sign. but day came for auditions, an i was feelin dang good. the audition was for the show “So You Think You Can Dance”. well pssshhhh……we all know i can dance. haha. jk. anyways…..the trip itself may have not started off good, but since we got in line for that audition, all the sudden it became so much better. my roommate an i are a freakin riot when we get together. not tootin my own horn, but toot toot, we’re dang funny! so, la de da de da we’re gettin attention from people in line which got the attention of the producers, producers were interviewin’ me thinking i was the coolest thing ever, an all the sudden everyone knows my name an were gettin the vip treatment. naturally im flying through the audition, makin every cut. had to go back the next day for the final round. which is what you see on tv, where you dance infront of judges and then they let you know if you sucked or if you were fabolous. (for those who arent familiar wit the show, its EXACTLY like American Idol, but for dancers). so were watchin all these people on stage and the judges are jus rippin them apart. so by now………im a lil nervous. my turn comes, i do my dizzle, music stops, go to the mic, an the judges go at it. get this, you ready?……….i didnt make it on to the show because they said “i look like i should be in a music video”. uhhhhhhh………..im sorry………..but if you say that to any hip hop dancer, they’re gonna take that as a bloody compliment! so i figured, ok………..they jus aint ready for me. so you know what i said………..”well shoot, you think so too!? well thank you and thank you for your time”, an i walked off stage. everyone was in shock, an the judges called me back to the stage and said “we’re not done”. so i knew i was gonna make it. i already saw them do this same thing to someone else. but to me……..damage is done. its a dance competition, not a personality competition. this show is not ready for my dancing and you judges already let me know that. so now that you saw my personality, all the sudden you like me? i dont think so. so i got back up on stage and after they said “we’re not done”, i said “oh but i am”. and i left. and i felt dang good about it all too.
