In the Future

Today was my last audition for show choir ever. As excited as I am to never have to audition for anything ever again I get both excited and terrified for the future. Dance team tryouts are long over with, but with this being my last show choir audition I realized that this really is the last audition process I'll ever have to go though (unless I do decide to tryout for college dance team which I'm not planning on doing because I would never make because it's so competitive). I have been preparing myself for show choir and dance team my entire life, and now that I only have one year left it's hard to imagine why I put so much blood, sweat, and tears into it. I'm not saying I regret it, that's the furthest thing from the truth, but it's hard to believe I put so much work into something that is just going to end. I always knew the day would come and I still have time to enjoy what I do but I just can't imagine myself not dancing at all.

I want to go to Iowa State after seeing the campus while visiting my sisters I found that I really feel at home there. I tell everyone that I want to major in interior design because that's the only thing I can see myself enjoying at this time in my life, but I really have no idea what I will actually end up doing. Iowa State has a great interior design program so it just seems to fit. Iowa State has an awesome dance team that I'm sure I would absolutely love being a part of. The only reason I'm not really considering it as an option is time and effort. Even in high school dance team pretty much dictates my life and when I have time, I don't want that while I'm in college, I just want to enjoy myself with no worries. I know I've said this about nine million times now, but I really don't know how I'm just going to stop dancing. I know there are other forms, styles, and places I could turn to, but none of them really appeal to me. I guess for now I'm just going to enjoy what I have left and not worry about what the future holds for me until I get there.
