This post has a lot going on, but now that I have finally figured out how to upload more than one picture at a time, my future posts will be shorter and more frequent.

The lovely dorm I stay in

The bus that takes everyone to the studios in the mornings and back to the dorms in the evenings.

One of Orlando Ballet's three campuses.

 My roommates names are Chelsea, Hannah and Samantha. We get along well.

My sweet friends Genevieve and Hannah.

July 1st

Field trip to Daytona Beach!

 Relaxing with Emily and Stephanie

 Not all ballerinas eat just yogurt and salad. Well, at least not this one.

We decided we had to have a cliche "dancer on the beach" picture, too.

 Emily left after a week to go back to the Joffrey Ballet School in New York. I miss her!

 Annalisa, Stephanie, and Rachel. Beautiful, hard-working dancers!

July 4th

We had to do it.

Madison, Rachel, Annalisa and myself before our trip to Downtown Disney on the fourth of July.

 Meadow, Nicolette, and myself. Nicolette left last week because of a minor sprain in her ankle, tendonitis in the tendon under her ankle bone, and a bone in her lower leg that is jamming into her ankle/foot. We miss her!

With Emily, Meadow and Nicolette.

 A group shot of Level 2 (minus a few people). I love my level! Everyone is so sweet and encouraging. We all work very hard and love dancing together!

 July 6th

With Meadow before the Cirque du Soleil performance!

 Stephanie!

My lovely friend, Katie Mae!

Waiting with Stephanie, Amanda, and Genevieve for the show to start!

 Rachel and I love our new Yumiko leotards.

 July 8th

At Islands of Adventure! I rode the famous Hulk roller coaster and LOVED IT! I'm officially a fan of roller coasters thanks to my new friends.

With Stephanie before character class.

Melissa! My beautiful and hard-working barre buddy.

Genevieve! She had to leave on Monday because of an injury. So sad! We haven't stopped texting each other since she left, though. We became good friends!
