Questions...

A lot of you know the reason why I like to write but a lot of you still ask me how I do it. For me writing my blog is a process,  but I wouldn't change it for the world.  It is a three step process.  The first step is making sure I have an interesting topic for you, the readers.  It is probably the easiest part for me but sometimes I do get writer's block.  Yes my friends it does exist!

The second step is probably the most interesting for you and the one that takes the most patience, time and energy.  It is actually writing what you see each month.  You see I can only type using my left pointer finger.  So, I use a program called Co:Writer it predicts the words I am trying to type giving me four choices at a time with verbal feedback.  Even this takes a long time and therefore I very rarely finish a post in one day and if I do,  it is usually on a day where I don't have much else going on.  Sometimes I will have someone write what I  want to say on a piece of paper before I type it but usually it comes straight from my mind.  

When I do it in one sitting it can take up to three hours!

The third step in the process is sending the blog to my mom and/or brother for editing.  I would suggest this step to anyone who wants to start a blog of their own.  Do not send a post without someone you trust looking at it first because you never know who's going to read it.

Another question people ask me is if it ever bothers me to be in the Children Shows and/or classes at MOMENTA.   My answer is this.  Sometimes I get a little upset because  I feel that dancing with the younger dancers does not really give me the opportunity to show my real capability as a dancer.  However, most of the time that really doesn't bother me because I know that by me just being in the show with the younger dancers teaches them from a very young age about inclusion and that Everyone Can Dance.  This means a lot to me.  Yet, in my weekly classes I do not feel an age difference at all.  Once we hit the dance floor age goes out the window and we are just dancers it is a wonderful thing. 
Happy leap year!
Love-
