On the right track. I think.

I have taken steps towards getting my life out of the meaningless mist and into... some meaningful mist. :D And I'm scared to death!!

I am signing up for classes at ISU again to get my education rolling again. I met with the 'default' advisor, since APPARENTLY I'm still a Pre-Major, which is silly, since I have always planned and declared my major proudly! But...

Anyway, I'm glad he's not my 'real' advisor. Didn't care at all. He didn't NOT care, but he didn't care. So I drove 45 minutes for a 20 minute meeting with the guy, and then drove 45 minutes to get to work late.

There's something about planning my life as an adult that gets me scared to walk out the door. Well, that's not fair, I've always been too cautious for my own good. But the thought of making my school schedule happily co-exist with my dancing schedule and my work schedule is scary. On one hand there's the pressure of making sure my husband and I have enough to eat and a place to stay, while on the other hand there's the need to get an education... while on the other hand I need time with my husband... while on the other hand I need time for me to develop as a real HUMAN, not this lonely robot that I've been for the past 2 and a half years. I wish I had more hands to weigh my options.

My other huge step is going to L.A. this summer. I'm going to dance at EDGE Performing Arts Center for a week. EDGE is, like, THE place to dance. All the teachers are current professional dancers/choreographers. It's so awesome it's intimidating. The plan is for me to fly down (by myself *sob*) and just work my butt off (crossing my fingers on that one) and come back a better dancer. But I'm too old and not experienced enough to really gain and come back amazing, aren't I? *sigh* I think I should be scared to be in a big city by myself, but I'm more scared to go and have the teachers look at me and say, "Ummm.... yeah.... maybe you should leave...." And I NEED to make this worthwhile because while I'm doing this trip fairly cheap, it still adds up to a lot of money and every moment has to count!!!

And... as I think of what to write next, I am buying my plane ticket.

The bunny and I had a falling out after I made an avvy like this one. ;) I may pull him up later, but I've also been figuring out how to use a program on my comp - that I didn't know I had - so I've been playing around and liking it! :D
