You know you’re a dancer when…
- the whole world stops when your MP3 Player runs out of batteries
- you start to groove once you hear a good beat.
- the word wooooo means much more than it seems to be.
- you orgasm when you see a nice open floor.
- you understand that ancient native dancer tongue…”boom..boom ta…kakaka….hit….jump…
turn…boom….boom ta..snare snare…high hat…booom ka…ka……ka…booom…hit…..milk…milk….BOOM TA.”
- you think it’s okay to throw your shoe at someone when they’ve done something GOOD.
- a song from a previous or current set comes on at a department store, you hear it from a car as you are walking down the street, or at a club the automatic dancer response is “aaayyyyy/ohhhhh SHIIITT….*does choreography*”
- ur friends start tellin u to stop cuz its gettin kinda old (^-^)
- u see holes and rubbed off material on the knee areas of ur pants
- ur ipod contains a list with either “choreo” or “dance” in its name
- u think ur room shrunk because u keep hitting ur bed or desk or random books while dancing randomly (^-^)
- u hafta keep buying clothes and shoes and accessories for performances cuz u wanna look good
-
you feel weird about missing practice
-

every clothing that you buy has to be danced in first at the store in front of a mirror
-
a mirror becomes your favorite furniture

-
your shirt size becomes a size up that you normally wear
-
dancing becomes your second girlfriend =)

You know you’re a dancer when you realize Shane Sparks is the only one that knows what he’s talking about on ABDC. And that Lil mama needs to go.
You know you’re a dancer when somebody automatically responds, “Oh, he/she’s at practice…” when somebody else wants to know your whereabouts.
You know you’re a dancer when you find it hard to sleep… because choreo is running through your head. ALL THE TIME.
You (also) know you’re a dancer when you like tortilla chips… you REALLY like tortilla chips.
you know you’re a dancer when your coach tells you, “you suck today because dance is in your head.”
To Ken: They way they crunch, the way they dip, dag I like tortilla chips.
you know you’re a dancer when you suddenly like songs you didn’t like before just because you saw a rili good piece done to it(even though the lyrics is just crap).
Hardly any of these really described how a real dancer’s life is. Here’s what it’s REALLY like:
You know you’re a dancer when…..
-Your feet are calloused and blistered and you still wear flip-flops because you’re proud of the way your feet look.
-You have classical music on your ipod because, after listening to it in ballet class all the time, you started to like it.
-The other people at your studio aren’t just your friends-they’re you’re family.
-You hurt your legs, ankles, or feet and still push yourself to be better than ever.
-You have seen at least 3 versions of the Nutcracker
-You know that most people that dance in those movies and TV shows that are out are absolutely TERRIBLE at it.
-You know that hairspray isn’t just for hair.
-You hate stretching, but do it every day because it’ll make you a better dancer.
-You’ve missed school because of a dance event.
-Your weekends are spent at the studio.
-You dance until your shoes literally have to be duct taped together.
-You just read the original list (not this one I just made) and it made you angry.
You know you’re a dancer when you improvise dances to every song on your iPod- even the slow and depressing ones.
Also
You know you’re a dancer when your excuse for everything is “Sorry, I have/had dance.”
And
You know you’re a dancer when B+ is not a grade on your report card, but a standing position/
