One year ago I became a half scholar at the CCP Dance School (the official dance school of BP). And it was my dream to be one of 'them'. I treated sort of a miracle because the day of the auditions was my birthday. And during the recital for the 42nd season, I got promoted to a higher level. I was able to dance the company show Sleeping Beauty for the first time and met a lot of awesome teachers (SUPER STRICT). I was able to dance the choreography of Novy Bereber - Hampang Ta. It was my first dance as a scholar. I was able to live out the life I wanted, dancing everyday and being part of the castings.
The next year, I was able to get a Full Scholarship for the Jan-Mar season. I was able to join the PASINAYA 2012 with the dance called "A Different Concerto" choreographed by Lora B. and Edana L. I was also sold my homemade cupcakes for 20 Pesos at the BP booth and also did the calculations with the awesome Registrar (Ate Monica!) of the sold items and lost items. It felt satisfying. I was then invited as the first batch of Master's Class along with 8 other dancers (I'm the 9th).
The mark of the 43rd year of BP starts with the Summer Dance Workshop. In the SDW, I got my second Full Scholarship with CCPDS.What really made me this excited this summer was the Master's Class Basic Pointe. I was invited again for another series of Master's Class with the same old batch. The Hip Hop Teens (Crabby's) was also one of the best moments to remember. We got along together and even bonded. We even have our own fb group with the red shoes! We have this signature color: red for CRABS!
Here's ye crabmates, yo!

Really, 2011-2012 was one heck of a year for me in ballet. We had this thing called "It's more Fun in Ballet Philipines". And really, it is. I feel that I have a community, a family to be with. And that's the goodness of it.
So I hope for a better season and year this 2012! Thanks a lot! Until Then!
