Time flies when your having fun!


WOW! Like usual life has been super busy!  In the grand scheme of things we are now in the double digit days away from Miss Iowa Finals!  I can not believe that finals are only 99 days away!! Every other day I change my mind on if I am ready for not, I try to tell myself and convince myself that I am but I am grateful that I still have 99 days to be the best version of myself.

On a smaller scale this past week has flown by, I was invited by Irving B. Weber Elementary to teach gym class to 3rd-6th graders for the week.  I spent my mornings from 8:45 am - 12:05 pm teaching these elementary school kids how to dance and how to use dance as a form of expression.  I had an absolute ball with these kids.  I had some familiar faces from the dance studio and some hesitant participants (mostly the boys) but by the end of the week every class learned a short dance and walked away knowing some new moves and a smile on their face as I promised.  It was so fun for me to be able to share my love and passion for dance with those who have never experienced dance or unable to go to a dance class for any reason.  There were times when we danced together and time that I just let them dance around and express themselves.  I even saw kids dancing around the hallways when I wasn't teaching them!
Just a small portion of the kids I got to spend my mornings with!

Kids are so welcoming and made me feel right at home! 
Monday, I will head to Des Moines to the state capitol for Advocacy day for the March of Dimes.  I am very excited to speak with legislators and work with March of Dimes staff and volunteers to bring awareness to the March of Dimes and certain issues.  Stay tuned for updates!
XOXO-
Christy Scimeca, Miss Pearl City
