Recital

Tonight was Allie's ballet recital (Leah's too) and I went with Erica and saw Craig, Rej and Allie's mom there. Both girls were fantastic! They danced to a song by pink called glitter in the air, which I absolutely love. I hadn't heard it before the recital but it was awesome. Watching people dance always makes me want to get into it again, although I don't know if it's something I would actually commit to. Memo to me: look up a dance studio close to my apartment in Ottawa!

It was nice having us 4 girls in the same space again, even with boyfriends and even if it was at a McDonalds! It's been a long time and I really doubt it'll happen before I move, which is unfortunate.

I've run into/started talking to a few people from my past that I hadn't seen in years. It's totally a time warp thinking of myself as an 8th grader, looking up to the cool 9th graders and thinking all that they were. When you see them 9 years later, they're just people like everyone else, and you wonder why you tried so hard to impress them.

Life is strange that way.

Numerous people I know have now graduated with Gov. General medals of various colours, one was even the arts valedictorian. I'm not sure I'd trade my life for theirs, even though at one point I would have done it without a second thought.

It's interesting how things change.
