Karianna has found her love in life: dance. She is taking 3 dance classes right now at Dance Spot here in STV-advanced lyrical, advanced jazz, and a tech class. She has really been enjoying that and constantly claims 3 hours a week is not enough-she'd prefer to do 20. ;) She is doing the regular dance class at ALA right now in place of a PE course, and it has definitely not challenged her at all-which is fine, she knew this was the only course she could take at ALA as a 7th grader. So when announcements started coming out about trying out for ALA's advanced dance, she signed right up. We got some contradictory news thereafter that only high school kids could try out for advanced dance, but that did not deter Karianna. She and a few of her good friends who are also dancers went to try-outs anyway after myself and the other parents had emailed about it, and they let her try out over the course of a week. I never doubted that she would make it, and it was pure joy when she came home proclaiming she had indeed made it into advanced dance-yea! Her two friends made it as well, so that will be a great thing for Karianna. Of course, she wanted to take some dance pictures thereafter, so I complied ;)
