1/18/13 Week 17

This week was the first week back at COM. I am taking modern dance, hip hop, and American Sign Language. I've been really busy and tired because I have 6 dance classes a week, which puts a toll on my ability of bodily movement. Modern is fun because its a lot like ballet, but not as restricted movement. It's more flowy and creative. In my hip hop class, i'm happy because my friends are in there with me. It's a lot of fun, we got to dance to songs by Fergie and other R&B artists. We  did a warm up stretch and learned basic hip hop moves. It's very different from ballet. I'm sad because my teacher Kristi told me I can't do hip hop because I have a sprained ankle and banging it on the ground is not going to help it heal. In ASL we have to learn the alphabet. We had to go up to people and ask them their name which they signed to us, and we had to sign it back. I'm excited for this semester because im going to broaden my dance horizon.
