So, from now on our days are going to be pretty much the same…rehearsing and rehearsing for The Show. About the Show you’ll read more about later, for now I can only say that it’s the way Up with People communicates with people as they think that music and dance is the universal language that everyone can understand.

So, today first thing in the morning we had a little exercise and after that we were learning how steps for our first dance. That was tough but it was fun. After that we had a vocals session and we learned how to sing 2 songs for the show. It was fun. As I have just a little performance experience, this is going to be really challenging for me to do and I’m super excited about it.

After that we had our 2nd Cultural Jam and today there were 27 different shows presented on the Cultural jam. It was fun. I was impressed how many cast-mates are really good singers. (What am I doing here? :P ).

I didn’t know that we are going to have such a fun with Up with People program. It’s really nice to be part of that organization. I’m really happy to be here in Denver :))))

So, I uploaded some new photos from yesterday and today. You can see them all following this link.
