My Son Can Dance

One Mom's Musings About Boys in the Dance World

OMG! Tech Week after Tech Week and Finals, Too!

June 2, 2010 by Nina Leave a Comment

This is just a short post. Things are gearing up here…or have been in high gear. We are trying our best to get Julian to study every chance he gets, but those are few and far between. He had tech week last week for Alice in Wonderland. The show was fabulous! Oh, how cute he was with ear and a nose and a ruffled shirt with a velvet jacket. He made a wonderful White Rabbit. His dancing was great–super partnering!–and he did a fine acting job as well (if I do say so myself). And this week we are heading into three days of tech for the TDC Spring Concert. (Please buy a ticket and support TDC if you live in N. CA!) By the time Julian finishes with that on Sunday, finals will be starting on Monday.

My daughter graduates on the 11th and five days later Julian and I are off to New York for the ABT Summer Intensive. I’ve hardly had time to think about it! OMG! Good thing he has most of his gear already and we know are way around. I guess I better start packing! I have a deadline on the 10th, too.

Sheesh.

Anyone else out there feeling a bit frantic about now?

So, today I’m just writing to say…well…things are crazy, but the boy is dancing up a storm and feeling good about that. He’s not stressed about exams. I am. I’m worried in general about his grades. I’ll feel better when I find out he brought all his grades up a notch. My stepson arrives on Friday. He’s supposed to be Julian’s study buddy…

Ah, well…In the meantime, I have enough to do with getting ready for NYC and my daughter’s graduation.

Wish you all could have seen my rabbit…so cute. He’s excited to see where he is placed this year at ABT. I won’t reveal his hopes. Oh! His best friend (a girl) is going, too. So that will be nice.

That’s it today! Just some friendly nervous mom chatter.

By the way…any votes on the new theme for the blog? I’ve changed it two or three times now. Now one has said a thing.
