Geez my great accomplishment is kinda hard.. But sometimes i wish I hadn't even done it but looking over my life its a big accomplish for me because of how I overcame my fears, my insecurities and what everyone else thought and did it anyway and did better than everyone expected.. last year Australia's show So You Think You Can Dance did the process differently, you couldn't just rock up and audition, you had to apply to audition and you had to get through 3 levels of answering questions before you got to pick your audition date and time.. I applied because my housemate did though I didn't expect to get anywhere.. I got an audition and I kept telling myself I didn't care and I didn't tell anyone either. In till the day before when I told the only other 3 people in my uni who got an audition.
And I have never been so nervous.. I also have never danced like that in my life, so hard so desperately passionate I had never felt a hunger for something so bad as I did getting through the first part of that audition doing a commercial jazz dance. I got through to do my solo which was a burlesque 1950's inspired number to Valerie by Amy Winehouse.
a couple weeks later on the day of my last performance at uni the other 3 people got emails saying they got into the Top 100 and I was too scared to read my email..
When I finally did I almost fainted at the fact I got Top 100 of Australia So You Think You Can Dance 2014. My mistake was letting this get out. ultimately I didn't make it any further when Top 100 week came along because I had let rumors and what people said get to me so much I was convinced it was a joke that I was there. I mentally flat lined in the first challenge..
But besides that it was my biggest accomplishment, I made it further than I ever imagined and I had a lot of people recognize me on tv and in the streets afterwards. I was awesome. I wish I felt that drive for dance that I felt in that audition all the time..
SO moving onto my hidden talent!! which is kinda even harder than my accomplishment as I like to keep all my talent out in the open as I live such a creative life..
ah no wait seriously I got this.. My secret talent is that im really GREAT at buying people gifts.. even when my partners friend was having her birthday and my partner had no idea what to get her, I came up with all her suggestions.
when someones birthdays coming up, say like my partners I think about things she has said, things I know shes likes and I figure out gifts from there, without asking her what she wants. she likes lord of the rings, especially hobbits and likes lego.. so I bought her the hobbit bagend lego set. I noticed she was missing one harry potter book, so I got that for her. Also I know she loved puzzles so I buy her a puzzle and a frame for it, because she once told me about how she did this amazing puzzle of final fantasy once and she framed in and it got broken and how she love how it looked in a frame.
Like my partners friend I know she supports the rabbits in NRL and she wear a lot of snap back hats, and she mentioned she loved army cameo colors. So i suggested we buy her a rabbits snap back hat that had the cameo army colors on it..
I also love buying people gifts, figuring out what they would like, its really fun for me and I always get told that i give good gifts. that its obvious I listen to people by what i get for them.. I hope I dont sound like im tooting my own horn but I get told it a lot and recently so its fresh in my mind haha
I love wrapping presents ^_^ <3
