I Will Perform in HTDC Yes We Dance April 8th 2023!!!

 So, a few more lucky things have fallen into place!

I got the yes from my company to miss that one last class of my next semester Saturday schedule!!! But, even missing that class, I would have had to RUN to the train and make zero transfer mistakes, and have no train delays to make it to the hall at almost exactly 5:45, when the group of performances I'd be in are supposed to be starting (plus I'm now performing in 3 dances, which might not be possible if I arrive so close to the start time)...BUT, Taku said that the schedule of performances wasn't set in stone yet, and they could ask the stage people to change it to 6:30 (really, just for me?? 🥺)

Then Hiro said to me, after my regular Wednesday advanced salsa and bachata classes, that if I wanted to, I can also take the upper class, learn their dance, and possibly perform their dance also (which is why I'm performing 3 dances now), because they needed some motivation and a little push to want to go onstage (and I'm the genki-est, most happy, dance and HTDC, obsessed girl on this planet currently XD), so I joined it also! I helped 4, maybe 5 people to commit to and say yes to performing in YWD! 

And, so then Sunday Jan 29th, after my upper salsa, advanced salsa, and THEN bachata classes (so from 1-3:30 dancing?) I went home. And then, at about 2:30pm on Monday, all the dance group Lines got a message that the starting time was changing from 5:45 to 6:30! They actually got the starting time changed!! For me?!?! 

I feel so loved and thankful right now. Dancing and HTDC, and all my fellow dancers I've met, and also my job for supporting this dream of mine and helping make it possible, and also my non-dance friends who let me go on and on about salsa, and letting me show off my dance videos and planning to see me perform, and then my best friend, Sky, (who I met through my awesome job) who got me into salsa and HTDC to begin with.

Ummm, if you want tickets and are free Saturday April 8th, let me know! Come see the thing that has recently taken my heart, body, time, life, and money XD
