Note to Self: BREATHE
This will, more than likely, be my last post before leaving for Mansfield and Miss Ohio. Last night I had to clean my old apartment and move out the leftover junk. After that, I went to the dance studio and ended up staying there very late rehearsing my dance. The bad news is that one of my pointe shoes is breaking down, so I will need to break in a new pair before I leave. That's not really bad news, just another item on my to do list.
I spoke with my host parent, Maggie Joyce, this week. She is a lovely woman and I can't wait to meet her. Her daughter, a modern dancer, is in a professional company in California (San Francisco, I think). Maggie mentioned that with time allowed, she would be able to get both Katelyn and I to a dance studio to run through our talent prior to the start of preliminaries. That would be great!
Most of the new apartment is in good shape. Is it wrong to be excited to have empty drawers in your dresser?
With the exception of packing a few toiletries, I am ready to travel home tonight after work. Tomorrow, I have a full day of pre-pageant pampering! Then, my mom will drop me off in Mansfield around 7:30 p.m. You may have heard President Bush is scheduled to make an appearance at a Mike DeWine fundraiser in Powell. We happen to know the people hosting the event and have been told that many of the roads in and around Powell will be closed from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. Traffic will be a nightmare!
I'm excited for the pageant to begin and to get to know the other contestants. I have asked my mom to post some comments and photos on this blog in my absence.
So, wish me luck. See you after July 8th!
