1st Dance Competition!

I was so excited and nervous at the same time. I was about to be on stage at my first dance competition! What was going to happen? All I knew is that I was going to try my best! No matter what the score was I was going to get out there and show my talent! The music was loud and our bodies were flowing, we were on stage dancing, actually dancing and it felt great when I got out there. The audience cheered as we were leaving the stage. Once my group got off the stage we raced to the dressing room to celebrate and get changed for next dance. We were done with our dancing in a blink of an eye and it was soon time for awards. I walked quietly onstage and as we sat down they started to announce the awards.  Finally they announced the small groups! This was our big chance! (The awards were bronze, high bronze, silver, high silver, gold, high gold, and platinum). Then they announced “The Tigers,” which was a group of 5 year olds. They won because the judges thought they were so cute. It was the worst!
