NATIONALS!

             My dance team and I went to Nationals in Florida!   I had one of  the best moments of my life!  I was there with 13 other wonderful girls!   We were in the senior all-stars jazz division, so we were going against seniors.  We first had to make it threw the semi-finals.  Just to make it to finals was our goal!  We performed spot on!  Once we got off the floor we were screaming our heads off!  Then we had to wait and see if we made it to finals.  It felt like we had to wait forever.  Then the announcer said 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th and there was only one spot left.  All of our hearts dropped.  We were thinking theres only one spot left and we didn't make it. Then he said and the last spot goes to PIZAZZ dance team!!!!!!!    We were literally screaming for 5 minutes straight!  We were all so happy that we full filled our goal!  After I was done screaming for 5 minutes!  I was thinking that we beat out 6 other teams that were all seniors.  And then that just brought even more joy to my soul!  Then we had to go perform again.  On the huge stage!  We performed again and then had to wait for around 4 long hours.  Then we went up on stage to see what place we came in.   Then the announcer said,  in 6th place PIZAZZ DANCE TEAM!!!!   We were all happy and thought again that we beat out 6 other senior teams!  It was just a very good experience that I wish everybody could experience.  Then for the rest of the time we got to play at all the parks!  I had a blast!  We went to Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom which one night they let just the dancers go on a few rideds so we went on splash mountain 3 times which was a blast, and then a couple of ther rides!  Then the next day we went to Epcot which it was so much fun learning about all the cultures!  Then while we were at Epcot we went on test tracs a couple of times!  On that ride you go up to 60 miles ann hour!  Then later that night we went to Hollywood studios!  Which that night it was just open to the dancers and their supporters!  And we went on tower of terror 3 times and each time I went on it there was a different drop sequence!  Then we went on Rock'n Roller Coaster 4 times!  Because Mersadie Polatis flirted with one of the guys that was working on that ride then he gave us a bunch of fast passes, and for each fast pass it let 3 people in!  It was so awesome! You go upside down 2 times!  Then my friends and I went to the dance party were there was a d.j. and it was just a blast!  Then the next day we had to go home. The trip went by so fast.  But I had fun every second I was there!   You can go watch the dance at http://varsity.com/event/1440/2011_ndtc.aspx  Or you can watch our cheer we made up!

When we first got to the hotel this was laying on our bed.
