What Its Like Being On A Dance Team And Being In School

Is dancing that bad? When I use to dance it was very fun but I also had school to focus on so I  tried my best to make cuts and go to school and make good grades doing both was very exhausting we had partices almost every day after school but I also had homework and I got out of school around 3 and partices was around 4 so I had a little bit of time for homework so I would speed through it and after that I had to partices the dance before my dance teacher would pick me and my sister up.                                                                                                   When we first get to the studio we all got warmed up and loose up our bodies then we start the routine it was kinda hard to keep up with everbody and learn the dance but I tired my best even tho I didn’t make cuts partices ended at 9 I went home that and partices all night then i took a shower and went to bed that next moring my body was very sore to the point i could barely stand on my own two feet i told my mom she said just push throug it and if it hurts to bad just call her so in school i was very tired i couldn’t even focus I called my mom during lunch and she came and picked me up the car ride home felt so long i fell asleep when i got home i took a hot bath and my mom put some stuff and the water so my body wouldn’t hurt as much when I got out i went to sleep when I got up it was time for me to go to dance partices even tho my body was hurting i still went to prove myself that i really wanna do this after partices my mom told me she got a call from my teacher saying I always fall asleep in her class witch was true my said if i cant go to school and do my work I will have to take a brake from the dance time.                                                                                                                       I ended up taking break from dance and focus more on school I still went to the dance competitiones when I saw all the gairls dancing on the dance floor it mad e me upset cause I wasn’t out there with them when I pulled my grades up my mom let me back on the team I was so happy to be back on I didn’t push myself as hard as I did before i took care of my body more gave myself time to really learn the dance step by step my first dance competitones me and my sister got up around 5 in the morning to pack our stuff and head out when we got there me and my sister went stright to the team we all went to some room and got ready we went over the dance we had 2 round of dancing and I was so scared to go out there but I push through it when it was our turn to go we all dance and had fun and we won stand battle aginst the other team I was so happy to experience that moment for the first time and I kept up with my grades so after the win my mom took me and my sister out to eat for winning and we had a good night.
