Wavin' Flag

Singing forever young
Singing songs underneath the sun
Let's rejoice in the beautiful game

This is setting up to be one of the most fun dance shows that I've ever been in.  The dances are fun, I'm in four of them, and I even have my first solo.

But what's going to cap it all off is the finale.  The finale is just an all-out fun number.  It's loose, the steps aren't overly complicated, and the song is exciting.  There are a lot of people on stage.  Hopefully, it's just going to radiate energy into the seats.

All in all, the perfect way to end a show.

For costumes, everyone is starting with a white t-shirt.  On the front, it needs to have either the flag of a nation, or indicating the colors of the flag of a nation.  Also, it should be creative.  Be personal.  That way, it'll be a special moment when we have all sorts of nations up there at the end of the show.

For me, the nation choice was obvious.  Serbia is where my family came from, I go to a Serbian church, and Serbia shall be on the front of my shirt.  The back is a tribute to the fact that this will be the costume of the final dance of the final spring performance that I do with WDA.

It's a little touching to think about, but I'm glad that I'm going out on this.  It's going to be an exciting finish to what's been a great eight years.  I'm definitely going to miss it.  That much is certain.

And together at the end of the day
We all say:
When I grow older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a Wavin' Flag
