   Dancing and Dead Skunks
So, the White Day Dance is getting ever closer. It's on Saturday to be exact...and I still haven't finished Juno. But I have gotten started on it. Avenly and I made up the feather patches for all three jackets this weekend. We need to actually piece the jackets together, put on the feathers and then attach the red stripes to our pants. Not difficult, right?

Though, the feathers look a little like dead skunks at the moment. There are two long, oblong shaped patches of black feathers with a few white feathers mixed in for each jacket. One goes in the front and another on the back. We had to pile text books on the patches to flatten them and calm them down a tad. Though, we're still probably going to be spitting out feathers for a few weeks...

As for the dance, I've got the whole thing learned, and that's about it. Avenly and Dual know parts of it, and Jamie knows none of it. We're planning on having a long rehearsal tomorrow night in order to get it all down with the formation changes and all. We're cutting it a little bit close (too close for my comfort), but I think we should be able to pull it off okay. The dance isn't too difficult. If we really work on it tomorrow night, we'll be fine. Though, I'm considering keeping myself up front for most of it, since I know the dance the best at the others could watch me if they get lost. We'll see how practice goes tomorrow before I make any final decisions.

Ah, I love that we're doing a dance for the cosplay competition. It will be the first time I've actually done something for a cosplay competition besides a walk-on. It's invigorating. Especially since it's dance. I haven't danced in so long. I was a little worried that I would be too rusty. (Which was evident on Saturday when I pulled a leg muscle because I didn't stretch out enough...) But I think I'll be okay. I just need to practice the dance over and over until I feel extremely comfortable with it. It's only when you are comfortable with a dance when personality can truly come out in it. At least, that's what I've learned through my five years of dance.

So, that's about all that's going on now. Once again, cosplay has eaten all of my expenses this month. Eh, oh well. It's not like I go out and do stuff anyway. Though, I suppose if I really wanted to go do something I could always try to go on a date...Speaking of dates, Junior-Senior is coming up in a little over a month...I need to order my kimono...Hmm, wonder if I should bother with a date for that...I didn't have one last year and it was fun (though a little awkward because my friend kind of thought I was his date even though I wasn't), and I am going with a group of friends this year. But going with a date would be fun too, especially if it's a guy I have fun with.Hmm, I'll have to think about this a little more. There is someone that I have in mind, but I'm not sure if he would go with me...or to Junior-Senior at all...
