Kathryn's Day at DMW Camp

Wow! I had a great time at this years DMW (Dance Master's Of Wisconsin) camp! It was a blast! First, i woke up around o...4:45 in the stinkin morning! Then i showered, put my hair in my bun, listen to my mom say 'Just do your best, always smile' the same old same old. Then, b4 i knew it, it was already about 5:50! Just the, my friend Tatum got to my house all geared up and ready to go when Mrs. Baran pulled into our driveway at the always lovely 6:00 in the morning! Once ready, we were off to Walkesha WI. It takes about a good hour and 15 from Cary, but with my mom and Mrs. Baran and a GPS! it took us about an hour 40 min! LOL! Nice driving!, but theres more to come! Anyway, one we were at the always fabulous Country Springs Hotel where the convention takes place, we were asked to go into the scholarship room. Earlier, maybe a couple weeks ago, i applied for a scholarship since my brithday makes the cut.. yay! Sorry kel, but you know you'll get to do it next year! :) After getting our numbers pinned on (I was the first one to be called..#1!!) We headed into the ballroom where all 6 of our hour classes would take place! Our first class was Tap. While doing this, the judges were watching us the initre time! They were totally FREAKING me out! Then, an hour later, we were already in ballet. We had a really interesting instructer named Anthony. What a cool guy! And his helper~student was funny as well! Finally, came my faviorte class... ROCKETT STYLE! Omg! That was SO much fun! The MAJOR plus side to this was that we had a REAL ROCKETT teach it to us! She has been a rockett now for 6 years! What an amazing and talented women she was! I really liked her! (She was my faviorte out of all!) And thanks to my momma the sale shopper :) i got a pair of $10 ballet shoes for the class! Thanks mom! Then was a great lunch break! They have it all set up with really good pasta, potatoe, corn salads and fruit chips and sandwiches. The best part is it is like a buffet! So, you get to pick everything you want! After that hour flys by, you head back into the room. From there, we had another set of the tap class, that was fun as well. But after that we had the Rockett girl again and she taught us a Contemarary dance. Next, we had the same guy we had for ballet come in and teach us a Hip Hop Routine! That one was good, but really fast and tiring! After we finshed all the classes, it was time to annouce the scholarships! Unfortunatley, nor I, Tatum or Anna one :( But, we were the youngest ones to apply, so that made us feel alot better! Luckily, all the older girls from CGPAC won! Finally, we decided to head home. We kinda diched the group for Culver's and went to Jimmy John's. Yum! We ate in the car so we could get home quicker. While Anna was kinda asleep in the back, Tatum and i were talking, ipods etc and the moms were talkin... well suddenly i felt that i had to go pee :) So my mom said wait a little while for the next stop, which was fine. But, 30 miles later i really had to go! The, PERFECT there was a rest stop. So we departed from the highway and went there. But, Mrs. Baran missed the first turn into the stop, so we pulled around and were going to walk a little 2 second trail, but she said wait!........I can pull across, well of course the road did not loop and we had not even stopped to go and we were back ont the highway. So my mom and Mrs. B were half joking fighting. While this was happening, we went around those circles on the highway 5 TIMES! OMG, i had to go really bad now! I felt like i was on an episode of Survivior!We ended up in Lake Geneva at at Mobil Station. LOL! what a ride! Once back on the Highway, it started to snow... so it took us even longer! We ended up at home at 6:30! The funny thing was WE HAD A GPS THE ENTIRE TIME!
What a day! I had a great time and cant wait for next year! Sorry about spelling errors, it took me a while to write this anyway!Kelly, how was your day?
