Turning, tumbling, flipping, jumping. Are the street full of crazy people? What if instead of thinking 'crazy', you think 'dancers'. I'm a dancer my self, I can't help it but to start dancing in the middle of the streets when I hear music. New York has very good dancers because of good opportunities for the dance industry. They even started to shoot photos of dancers related to the City because of the connection they both have. "Matter has managed to capture dance in a way I have never quite seen before" Catherine L. Tully. My friends go as far away from me as possible when we go into a store like Hollister or Forever 21 where there is always music. In New York specially, is hard to go out and not have a few seconds of music in your ears. In the supermarket, in the restaurants, cars in the streets, even in the train. If you go to any of this places with me, you will definitely see me dancing.
In dance class, I was the one who always started to randomly dance to any music the teacher would play. When the teacher used to say "stand steal, we're about to start" the first 5 seconds of music we had to stand still, I moved. Except in the very lasts practices we had. She was pretty cool, but when we only had 5 days of practice left, she would turn into a whole different person.
The only reason I would be sent to the principle's office was because of doing cartwheels in the middle of the hallways. I wouldn't stop. It got to a point where they just didn't want to deal with me. Music has always been a part of my life. Without music, I wouldn't have had all those crazy memories and trouble I got into because of it.
