We have been having unseasonably warm weather lately, and as many of you know Imbolc was celebrated on February 4th this year (the first official day of spring). So naturally I have gotten my hopes up that warmer weather would come.
Boy was I wrong, the warm weather is because of a MASSIVE snow storm that is blowing in, and is due to dump on us tomorrow. This has been happening lately, we will have temperatures in the mid-upper 50's, and then in a day or two, get 6-12 inches of snow!!
Just such a thing happened last thursday. The storm was so bad that it took me 6 hours and 45 minutes to get home. Turning my usual 2 hour trip into a hellish nightmare!!
Ok, well enough with the weather, it just makes me depressed. I am excited because tomorrow we are having New York choreographer Danielle Martinelli come to UVU and choreograph an all new piece on Repertory Ballet Ensemble!! I don't know much about her, or her work, but from what I do know, she is an up and coming force in contemporary ballet, not to mention she is in VERY high demand (explains why we had to pay so much LOL). I can't wait to meet her and possibly get the chance to be in her piece!
Also on the dance front, I have been dealing with shin splints, URGH!!! This is certainly not the best time to be injured. This semester seems to be very unlucky for me, I have dealt with an over worked Iliopsoas, shin splints, and some pretty bad muscular adhesions (but i am finally going to get those taken care of).
Well I guess that is about all I have to report on at the moment.
Keep Dancing!
