Ask and you shall recieve

So, I didn't quite get a big neon sign from God. I did, however, get a comforting phone call from my mother, and another BIG important call from the director of the program I auditioned for last week. I am accepted!!! So, in about a week, I move to Chicago!
The program is a training program for the apprenticeship program. So, technically 2 steps below a full company member. We take 9 classes a week, plus rehearsals, 2 shows a year, and the chance to dance with the first company on invitation by the director. I am now officially affiliated with the Joel Hall Dancers of Chicago! This is amazing!! The road isn't finished, the work is only beginning, but my dream of becoming a "real" dancer is coming true!! You can tell I'm excited because I'm breaking all of my exclamation point restrictions :)
I got an all-clear from the doctor about my knee yesterday, which is also great news. It's good enough for me to just keep working on it myself, keeping up with the exercises and stretches and things so that I don't re-injure it. But no significant pain, no debilitating annoyance. Awesome.
When I finally gave up thinking about how terrible I felt about not knowing what was up, when I gave the whole situation into God's hands, I got an answer. I'm still looking for some big neon arrows for things in life, but for now I'll be content with a couple of life-changing phone calls.
Come visit me in Chicago!!!
