holy moly
WHERE HAVE I BEEN!?
Welcome to the WILD WORLD OF OLIVIA
ENJOY THE RIDE!!
Hey blogger world. I totally forgot that I existed out here. Well lets see where I can drive this bad boy!
I am currently working on an expository piece for my writing class I am taking this quarter. Let me tell you. I hate trying to describe something. It’s RIDICULOUSLY HARD. So I guess we can try to to spice it up and I’ll try rewriting it to the world.
Here we go.
Standing still, feeling the warmth against my face, and the gritty moist sand between my toes, I put to memory the environment around me. Mild waves roll in from the deep, dark as night sea. Bursts of bleached white waves come crashing into the coast of Ventry Beach. I watch the surf receding away from the beach back into the dark neptune blue waters. The pattern of waves coming and going continues.
I then turn my head to marvel at the steep structure, towering over me. I reach my arm and feel the damp, cracks of the cliff. The cliffs appear grey or black, but really, they are a mix of smoke, and charcoal, colors that typically would be warm. Steel and grey stone rocks form a fence to protect the ivory sheep above. Jumping back, I avoid a shower of mist by a colossal wave that smashes into the crevices of the cliff.
Standing still once again, looking out at the waves, I take in the serenity of the coastal scene. I close my eyes and listen to the waves breaking and drifting up onto the sand. I also hear the crackle of the surf as it powers into the side of the cliff. A crisp breeze grabs hold of my body, leaving me short of breath with the cool air. I venture back to my cousins, on tight winding roads as the amber sun sets over the monstrous sea.
we’ll see where that gets me!
night folks
memories
just reminiced the best dance memory i have. the day i got my second 1st place to move into open championships. i was looking through the pics from that day. and lets just say had the best rush of awesomeness. I could cry again just like a idid that day, it seriously remains as one of my favorite days. also made me realize how much i miss competetitive dancing. i need to get back into it. NEED. thats all

well before i start crying. toodles
fly with me
….well this is new… i thought i would give this whole blogging thing a whirl. i am a veteran of the well known xanga, so being able to type shouldn’t be much of a problem, however i will try to be as meaningful as possible for those who so desire to read this awesome stuff…
summer is coming quickly coming to a close.however, i feel like it’s just beginning. June and July were consumed by dance which isn’t a bad thing. It just made me that much more connected to it, especially through a teaching perspective. I attended the North American Championships, which was an experience in itself. it was hosted at the opryland hotel in Nashville, and my goodness that place is just spectacular. my mind was at ease there. the building houses garden conservatories and atrium’s where plants and trees and waterfalls cover the glass rooms. it was UNBELIEVABLE. I also attended two weeks of dance camp at WSU. what a time that was. i learned a lot about connecting with a variety of kids and different levels and how i can go about seeing that they learn the dances but yet understand that they can also have fun with it. some dancers really inspired me and i made some awesome connections with them. I LOVE IRISH DANCE.
my uncle also passed away this summer. wally was married to my dad’s sister, so dad and i made the trip out to Massachusetts to support her and the family. even though we were there under terrible conditions i feel that i really strengthened the bond i have with my dad. it really impacted me and made me realize how much i really love my dad and that i am so thankful for all that he has done for me.
the dif also occurred. gotta love the dif. Ann allowed me to dance which i was thrilled about. YEAH DIF.
and well… it’s august. dangggg and i am working my life away at the sleep clinic. time sure does fly. and i am so anxious for school to start. i am living in an apartment on campus this year with 3 other girls. i get my own bedroom… for the first time in my life! so i am realllllly excited for that.
well. im going to attempt to watch a meteor shower. hope you enjoyed.
peace homies
