Been a while

So here's an update on what Ive been doing: Playing wow, hanging out with Lyn, interviewing, and now I get to dance.

We had DSP auditions this past weekend and I'll be honest, I didn't care too much this time. We had an orientation the night before and realized that we weren't getting a ton of new faces like last time. And the people I knew who were trying out and could potentially make it, well, I know them already. I think the best part though was having new judges come in this time instead of the usual, plus they're mostly mindtricks so thats awesome right there. Hmm, but what I am looking forward to is our next performance at One 4 Gee in April. I missed the last show but now I get to be part of it so yea, that feels awesome.


As for the job hunting, its ok and that's better than most people. I get calls, I get in-person interviews, I get a lot of responses from my resume and all of the experience Ive gained from these past months doing all of that is def going to pay off. Will it be my dream job? Who knows but I'm sure i'll find something soon.

Another Awesome Weekend

Had Tryouts again for DSP. Probably the funnest time I've had in a while dancing. Must be the vibe I got plus all of the new people trying out this season. It was awesome to hear I got better from some peeps, they said I lost weight too which is cool but I like hearing that my dancing got better instead hehe =P 

Im hoping we get quite a few of them honestly, I feel that some of these dancers would add something to the team that we can all share and learn from instead of us just building a dancer from the ground up. With all of this going on, I feel I should take advantage of all of these performances and battles coming up and really take charge..

My time at Homeland

Homeland is a popping and locking competition in Long Beach, CA where I participated in this past weekend. I learned a lot of new things about how I dance and how judges will like certain things or not. More after the break



I've learned that even if the crowd loves you, doesn't mean the judges will so it would be good to know what they're looking for. Usually, they will look for character, utilizing the stage/area, listening to the music, and of course skill. I say I had most of that but I wasn't listening to the music the way I do during practice. I'll have to keep pushing myself to feel the music even deeper than what I know currently.

Oh well, I still had tons of fun esp with my teammates. Here's my locking prelim footage

DS Players Regroup!

Well I finally got my team together to really restructure ourselves. Our dance team needed goals and how to achieve them. Here's some of the outline:

Dance Goals: Individual/ Team, Short Term, Long Term

Roles Discussion (addresses how to achieve certain goals by placing point people)

Projects in Process (my favorite part) seems like priority #1 is to get a logo.

Feedback Session: likes and dislikes that needed talking. Probably the toughest to deal with but the most beneficial.

And Comments: how the meeting went, next step for the team.

All together I'm glad we did this because like what everyone kept saying, DSP needed more structure. Now, must write my own goals...
