Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
1!. a signigffigant time in my life was when i tried out for the nutcracker at my ballet school!. there were at least 200 girls there trying out for Clara!. Of course i was nervous and my palms were sweating like crazy!. We had to learn a 30 second ballet routine and perform it for the directors to see what role we'd get!. I was anxious to see if the dance would be hard or easy, but once i saw it, IT WAS A PIECE OF CAKE! I danced my heart out when it was my turn and flet confident when i finished!. The next day I got a call saying I got the part of Clara!!! This was an amazing experience for me and I am so glad I went to the audition that day when i was 11 years old!.
2!. nervous!. During that 2 hour period when i was waiting for my turn to perform I was down right 100% nervous!. The only thinkg on my mind was that routine and I was running it over and over in my head!. Yeah, I was definitely nervous!.
3!. the song Iwould choose is probably the fast russian song from the nutcracker!. I would choose this because the fast tempo of it makes it seem frenzied and nervous but at the same time its from the nutcraker which is what I am trying out for!
4!. i think a jazz would go well with the fast russian song from the nutcracker!
5!. i thik high jumps and jittery movements would show being nervous and nutcrackery all at the same timeWww@QuestionHome@Com

1!. The most significant time in my life is a sad time!.!.!. this past december my grandmother passed away!. She had dimensia and it had been a tough year for her!. She was one of the most important people in my life and she is the only person that inspired me to dance!. She danced when she was young and I always thought of her when I danced!. Now, when I'm on stage I dance for her!.

2!. I obviously felt sad because she was the one person in my life that I was closest to!. We had sance in common and we would always talk about it and it made me so sad to know that I wouldn't be able to do that anymore!.

3!. A song that I always would listen to and I thought was perfect dor that time in my life is "All We Are" by One Republic!.!.!. the lyrics talking about " lets not say our goodbye's we know its better that way" really touched me, and made me think about all the great times I had with my grandma!.

4!. The style of dance that would match this is contemporary!.!.!. I think that it works well with the song and the emotion!.

5!. The movements would be soft and fluid!. Really gentle movements!. I could picture this dance so much that for my dance show this year I was given the chance to create it and it was the best moment of my life!. After I bowed I felt as if I was all alone on in the theater, that nobody was watching me except for my grandma!.

I hope this helps you with your project!.

1!. A significant time in my life was when i really started to get serious with dance!. i was about 10 years old when i realized that this is what i want to do with my life!. My family moved around a lot, so it was hard, but in the end, i still love dance and cannot go a day without it
2!. anxious!. I was anxious about if i would get a solo, if my dance teachers thought i was good enough, if my MOM thought i was good enough!.
3!. Bleeding Love!. I had to move away from my dad when i was 10 years old!. I remember he would be at every rehearsal and performance that i ever had!. every time i dance i think of him!.
4!. Lyrical!. Because lyrical is has a certain way of touching people to the point where you can almost cry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

summer 05' this summer was the absolute best summer of my life!. right when i thought everything was falling apart and i was breaking down because of my parents divorce and the case of everyone not getting along, my brother, sister, mother, and step dad made everything so much better!. they made that half of the summer feel like a ghetto family get together with my brother and sisters friends!. the only thing we did was chilled and go places!. sounds boring but they made it so entertaining!. it was like "the real world, ghetto" right in front of you!. i've seen it all from drugs to the most uncomfortable arguments you'd never want to be in between!. the best part was that i was the youngest one and learned a lot from them, especially from their mistakes!. so i guess that point in my life helped me keep everything real to myself, keep my vcard, and know what's better!.
