It had been months of dance classes without feeling like part of the family. New studio, new teachers and new dancers which was all strange to me. Until my first competition with Dance with Mitzi. It was the pep talk with Mitzi before my solo that made me get the feeling of family. Mrs. Mitzi is the definition of perfection. She has an indescribable calm even in the most stressful situations. She has this caring love that appears in the darkest moments seeming to brighten up the room. She has faith pouring out allowing a sense of purpose to every dancer she comes in contact with. She has an honest friendliness to her that beams out at every moment. Her older skin representing all the things she has given to make even a piece of the world a better place. Her sloppy curly hair and worn down dance shoes are small parts mirroring the work she does daily. The way she presents herself, Christianly and modest, reflects her true self. Many would agree with me when I say the definition of perfection is Mrs. Mitzi. Often I would witness Mrs. Mitzi as she motivated young students to strive for the best. Other times old students would visit and explain to Mitzi all that she led them to do in life. Never in my life would I have imagined that I would be one of those students that she impacted so much.

I felt as if it was just another dance and another performance. Then Mitzi grabbed my hands, bowed her head, and prayed.

Keep her safe as she takes that stage for the first time as a Dance with Mitzi member. Lord, lift the stress and all burdens off this young girl because she is dancing for you. May the dance not be for a title or a ribbon but for her. Her to realize that she belongs on the stage. In the Lords name we pray,
When the second quarter ended, they waited while technicians set up the stage and sound props. This soon ended and Cassi and the other performers stepped onto the field in front of thousands. Cassi’s nerves switched into excitement as she looked at the crowd. It was sunny and beautiful and she loved to perform. This kind of performance, dancing, was what she was good at.
Even though she was those things she didn’t let anything stop her. Ballet brought her out of her shell. She was the good kind of different after she started dancing. She was happy.
She realized that there was always more work to do. One of her instructors told her that she hadn't properly learned the basics, and she had to completely start over. This did help her realize that no matter how well she danced, she good always do better. “One instructor said that despite her talent, she hadn’t properly learned the basics. ‘He insisted we go back to the beginning,’” she explained.

WOOSTER — Dawn Cazzolli’s job is stressful. She is the executive director of the Wayne County Children’s Advocacy Center, which looks into allegations of sexual and severe physical abuse. “It’s stressful and people get burned out, but when you look around the table, there’s people who are just as passionate about child safety and child welfare,” she said. “I think of it as a calling.” To help Cazzolli recharge, she, her husband, Andy, and their children, Greyson, 15, and Sophia, 13, like to go camping, “into nature where birds are singing, where I feel the breeze, to bike, hike and see so many flowers.

It 's Izabella Katz. My mother bought me a beautiful diary as gift for my my 18th birthday almost two years ago and this is my fist time using it.

Through sharing this, we, the audience, see how “feminine perfection” is universal. She illustrates to us how girls brought up to perfection can not stand to make a mistake. So much potential is wasted at the hands of a single
Point your toes, lift your head, extend your arms, and complete thirty-two perfect signature eye-high kicks alongside forty other girls who have become my family. These same kicks that have been seamlessly executed by the Rockettes in Radio City Music Hall since 1932. The bright lights shining down blind me as I take my first steps on the gigantic stage that would soon become home to an experience that would strengthen my passion for dance. As the music begins muscle memory takes over and I perfectly execute the many sharp movements and precise head placements that have been my entire life for the last week.
What made miss Weibler so special? When I was in sixth grade my ELA teacher made learning fun by having a V.I.P. table and chair. When she noticed that you were being very good in class and you were participating she would pick you to be the V.I.P for the week. Everyone wanted the chance to sit in the V.I.P. chair because the chair was a light blue bungee chair. One of the other things that made her class fun was we played lots of games that helped us study.

She shows her passion in the story by saying “she said, it was only her right that she take responsibility for the young ones’ education.
22 January 2016 Trigger Warning Mia Laubenheimer Loving someone is handing them a gun and a map of all your weak spots and trusting them not to shoot. I didn’t know that five months into my first relationship I’d be curled up in a public stairwell, trying to figure out what we had done to each other. I have stared down the barrel of a loaded shotgun. How could an innocent relationship turn into such a twisted game of Russian roulette? I can’t go a single day without fearing for my life and the thought that he could knock down my door at any given time makes every second a painful nightmare, but for the sake of my family, who worry themselves sick about me, I try block him out of my mind.
I chose Ruth Fertel, because she was a great motivation for lots of people. Ruth raised on her own two children, and on top of that she became a famous business owner in the food industry. Fertel had a great virtues which were: being independent, and a hardworking woman. I like Ruth have also incorporate this two virtues into my life.

From the time I was four years old to around eight years old, I visited my great aunt and grandparents who lived in Canada for a week or two each summer. Among the memorable experiences of these short trips are: squealing and smiling as I fed ducks near my grandparents house, staring up at the ceiling of the local swimming pool as I floated on my back through the “lazy river”, turning my head away from the television screen in terror while watching movies that I was without a doubt too young to be watching (Needful Things based off the Stephen King novel being a great example of this), and learning about insects and other creepy, crawly creatures at the local bug zoo. Throughout the yearly visits to this strange version of a zoo, my favorite
I had to learn how to put away my fear of being in front of so many people. Growing up i was never too close to my mother. We never really talked or hung out. Since i joined dance it gives us something to bond over while she drives me to dance or drives me home we talk about what i learned i show her skills i'm progressing on and she comes to most of my performances.
