Sunday Afternoon

I'm grateful for...

...having stayed awake through "Fancy Free"! It was such a delight.
...having found the Synergo Music Method, which seems to have fleshed out what I believe.
...how I managed to further one of my goals of learning how to sing without consciously realizing that I had already written it down as a goal.

Saturday morning

I'm grateful...

...for Hulu, which enabled me to watch Sherlock Holmes last night
...for Molly's honest voicemail
...for dreams about double tours, which mean that they're becoming a part of my subconscious

Gratitudes

Yesterday:

I am grateful...

...that I talked with Marilyn after Alexander Technique class and found out about Liz Koch and then Bob Cooley. His book is interesting.

...that I'm able to warm up my hamstrings before class. It made Ilona's class so much easier for me than Mary's.

...for the nice people who provide services over the internet for free.


Today:

I am grateful...

...for the funny dream I had about some dreamt up sport where somehow you're lying on your stomach and you have a motor that pushes you along the ground. Crazily enough, I went uphill! It was funny remembering this.

...the conversation with Kellina. I think I'vel earned some valuable things about myself within the conversation, such as how I come up with what I want to say without thinking, and that it's based on correcting some unfairness. And it's true, sometimes I take pleasure in other people's misery, but that's only under the intent of telling people the truth.

...for being able to research music on the internet. What did people do before the internet?

Gratitudes

I'm grateful for:

having written about Jaren's analytical abilities. Remembering it and practicing it prepared me for some potentially bad news.

having Irene as a friend. I really needed to let out some steam last night after Chien-Hwe broke up with me, and Irene was perfect. She not only listened, but also had to get some stuff out herself. but then we finished with at least two happy moments!

having Jody's class last night and having the opportunity to explore the depth of my dancing a year after the conservatory.

Gratitudes:

I missed Sunday, but I had thought about it before I fell asleep.

Sunday's gratitudes:
I am grateful for the bed that I have to sleep in.
I'm grateful for the housing that I've acquired.
I'm grateful for the times that I live in and how easy it is to acquire food.

Today's gratitudes:
I'm grateful for the warm, sunny weather, which pleasantly woke me up before my alarm.
I'm grateful for Taylor's work as a teacher and coach--he always encourages the positive, acknowledges the negative, but then sets it aside. His work is very much in line with the positivity that I'm working to practice.
I'm grateful for Jaren as a friend and the kinds of conversations we can have. He is so intelligent and so analytical. I strive to be more like him in terms of understanding the issues and planning for many possible outcomes.

Gratitudes:

Today, I am grateful for... ...tea, and how my mom sent me tea. ...the foot rubz ball that I bought, which gives me good massages ...mint.com for helping me access my information through just one screen

Friday

Today, I am grateful... for the ability to sleep in, which I probably needed if I did it for learning about Walt Disney, who advanced technology for the sake of his art for reading Camden's wall and seeing all the lovely memories about him and messages to him and his family

Beginning again

I missed yesterday, but I'll just keep on keeping on. Today, I am grateful...

for finding out about frozen berries, which are cheap and delicious with oatmeal

for having access to the school's library, which has many books on music, dance, and participates in the ILL

for Google Voice, which makes it easier to communicate with other people because of the ease of using my computer

Returning to my gratitudes!

It's a new month, so I should be able to keep track of this. For 21 days, I should write these. I may do it on a notepad, which means they might not all be here. But I've accepted that. It's more about the practice of writing them than about reviewing them. Today, I am... grateful that I have my kitchen and can make breakfast. grateful that I have my laptop and can use it listen to music and video tape myself dancing. grateful for the juries, the process, the feedback, and the experience.
