got to show her a copy of my solo from last year, which is drastically different from the piece I am performing this year! It was cool to be able to show her how much my style of dance really has had to change because of this surgery and my limitations. We also talked about the format of my final presentation (Wednesday June 12). We decided that it would be a good idea to explain my journey and my experience first and then show my slideshow to put everything in context. We also think that it would be more powerful to actually perform my new solo rather than show a video of it! I think that telling my story, especially the parts that haven't been easy and all the struggles, is going to be difficult. It won't be easy to get up there and expose myself in that way, but I think that once I get up there and have some key events that I know I want to talk about I should be okay. I like that Mrs. Augustine and I are starting to talk about this a month in advance so I don't feel totally unprepared when it is time to present!
Back to the studio tonight!
