March 15th - 22nd Halima, Kalista and Odessa packed 8 days worth of clothing, food, accessories, and sparkly jingles into 6 carry-on bags. Here's a shout-out to all the plane passengers who helped us shove, punch, kick and pound oversized bags into overhead bins... not to mention their help to then retrieve them. To whomever you were, we love and appreciate you!
Let's not even discuss the trip back as we now have acquired new make-up, hip scarves, music and accessories we simply could NOT live without; again in carry-on luggage.
Cassandra Shore is no less than a Goddess. We danced all day, everyday for 6 days straight. We attended 3 incredibly entertaining and quality shows. We ate very healthy and delicious food which we then topped off with chocolate and ice cream. We drove like manics through downtown Minneapolis daily (why the police didn't remove me from the streets I know not). And yes... we visited the Mall of America.
In addition to daily technique and choreography with Cassandra and her "teacher's assistants" we also had quality time with a make-up artist, a dietitian, a history lesson by Cassandra, and percussion and melody lessons with exquisite live music by Tim O'Keefe and Laura Harada.
We started the week off with a strong focus on Orientale style and ended with Folkloric. I must say that every one of my 6 senses were satisfied and our already strong sisterhood was enhanced. We were all so impressed and proud of each other. The UTAH GIRLS ROCK!
