As another veteran dancer (though, not on the scale you are performing at) I have found that people's expectations and reactions aren't close to what we think they should be. The only people who ever know when one of my performances isn't actually stellar is my mother, or my husband. They actually know the real me well enough to know when things are really going wrong, sadly, I think the average audience isn't getting much past my fringe shaking. <br />Sumayahttp://www.sumaya.menoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31844753.post-78394991108045744622013-08-23T08:40:17.340+02:002013-08-23T08:40:17.340+02:00I wasn't there and have never seen you dance b...I wasn't there and have never seen you dance but I can say that you are not crazy for feeling that way. We all thing that from time to time an we all make mistakes that effect our dance. Let's face it, it could have been a much much worse costume malfunction. You could have totally lost your top :-O However, you didn't but you did learn a valuable lesson and you will not make that mistake again. Also, they are not all lying to you. If they said that then likely they meant it honestly and wanted to let you know. They just have different standard than you do because they are not trained in you art. Artist's always see the flaws before they see the beauty. We are our worst critics.

And the fact you think you we're shit is part of what makes you so good. I think perhaps you just always bring something beautiful to the dance and you can't help it. Dumb-ass mistake though, ya fanny. Speth xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
