I did cheer (got captain twice), honor and IB classes and got into a UC . Her videos truly kept me pushing. I didn’t have any friends either and was mainly alone but pushing myself really made me succeed and do best for me 🫶🏽 thank you for being an inspiration collie💕

    I underestimated the amount of competition among dancers. I only started dance when I was in college and I auditioned for some dance groups and tbh I would never not want people to make it to a dance. If she and I were in the same dance competition and she happens to win, I would be happy for her. Tbh dance brings me joy so why do I need to win? I am already winning by going out there and showing what I got.
