I am not a contemporary dancer. I am 100% pure bread, hard core, ballerina. I like having my teacher say, "Point your foot this way...Your attitude needs to be higher...Tuck your bumpy!" They tell me exactly what I need to do and when I need to do it. Everything is pulled up, tucked in and has to appear perfect. A perfectionist, this style is definitely for me.
I get very annoyed in Contemporary class. I am not good at it at all and since I go to a Contemporary company everyone is super good at it...except little bunhead me. Nothing makes sense to me. I'm like an autistic person who is really good at math but terrible at reading emotions. In my case it's that I'm good at ballet, it makes sense and has rules and regulations like math, and not contemporary, which is complex and confusing much like human emotions.
Oh well...I just have to sit back, relax, and wait until I'm older and good enough to get into the corps de ballet somewhere. Hey, a girl can dream.
