Hey, this is my first time doing fan fiction, so I hope you like it. This story is obviously about Dance Academy. It is looking at 1st year through each character's perspective. So a different person tells each chapter. It has a very similar storyline to the original TV show but I added some changes to not make it exactly alike.
Chapter 1. When dreams become reality
(Tara)
Dear Diary,
It's actually happening.
I, Tara Webster am finally going to go to Sydney to maybe become a student in the National Academy of Dance. I've never been so excited, I know it sounds cliché but it's actually a dream come true. My dream has finally become my reality!
I am about to leave the farm and have already said goodbye to my friends at school. Everyone has wished me good luck. Hopefully that's enough to get me through the auditions. Since it is the National Academy instead of just a day of auditioning, it's going to take a whole week to finally choose the country's best ballet dancers.
I really hope I get in, it's all I've ever dreamed of. Ballet is my life. I've loved it ever since I decided to jump off a pile of hay when I was a kid. That sounds stupid, I know, but all I wanted was to fly. But that obviously didn't work, (of course I injured myself) so I decided to dance because it's the closest thing to flying.
Love Tara
Dear Diary,
I am now in Sydney. I was so happy when I saw the academy. It just hit me! This could actually be my new home. Let's just hope that I'll do well in the auditions. Fingers crossed!
Love Tara
Dear Diary,
I don't think I started on the right foot. I already made a bad first impression by being late for my first auditions. I met this girl in class, Her name's Kat. She had her dirty blonde hair tied up in a very messy bun, blue eyes and a very bubbly personality. I also met Abigail. She looked like the ideal ballerina. She had her brown hair tied up in a very neat bun with a pink ribbon around it and noticed that she was the best at ballet. She will probably get into the academy. She seemed very nice and welcoming. And she also knows how much I want to get into the academy. She told me that if I wanted to get in, that I should try to stay away from Kat. I really like Kat, but if Abigail says who Kat really is, then I'll just have to avoid her for a little while, I have to focus on my auditioning.
Love Tara
Dear Diary,
Abigail has been helping me with my ballet so the teacher can be impressed with my skills and talent. She is really sweet and such a good friend. I should thank her later.
I'm just wondering, why am I not spending time with Kat? She hasn't done anything wrong, and I will still put enough effort in my dancing. And anyways, Kat said I had to go to this party last night that was being hosted by some third years. There were quite a lot of people there that I had never met before. Kat introduced me to Sammy who is also auditioning. He has brown hair and is average height. He is a bit dorky and funny even though he doesn't try to be.
I also met Ethan, Kat's half brother. When I first saw him, he was the most handsome guy I had ever seen. He had these beautiful, mesmerising blue eyes and had such a lovely smile. I couldn't take my eyes off him. When he introduced himself and took his hand out for a handshake, I was still staring at him and forgot to introduce myself. It was very embarrassing. People were noticing, and then when I realised the awkwardness, I quickly said my name. I think everyone just forgot about the awkward moment after a few minutes. Well, hopefully they did
Love Tara
Dear Diary,
Something weird happened today. I was just having fun with Kat and when I asked Abigail to join us, suddenly Kat stopped laughing and Abigail said that she had to do something. She didn't sound very real. I think it was just an excuse. Apparently Abigail and Kat don't have very good history between them.
Anyways, I got very embarrassed today, AGAIN! Miss Raine, our teacher kept picking on me in class about my technique and skill. I don't think she was very impressed. But who would? There are so many better dancers in the room such as Abigail and Kat. All I have to do is just try my best and work harder.
Abigail isn't helping me anymore and seems to be avoiding me. I don't know why. This isn't like her. Dad called me today. I miss him and mum very much. He told me that I shouldn't forget who I am and should show my courage and spirit. His voice just seemed to lift me up.
We came back in class and I don't know how but Miss Raine was nice to me and said that I improved very much. I was just probably in a better mood. I still am not fully sure if I'm going to get in. Today is already the last day of the audition week.
Love Tara
Dear Diary,
I got in. In got into the NATIONAL ACADEMY OF DANCE! I received the letter today in the mailbox and quickly opened it. I was literally speechless when I read that I got accepted.
I am both excited and scared. Yes I'm happy that I'm in but my view on what everything was going to be like in audition week was much different. Ballet was harder than I thought and making friends was difficult too. This is probably just a glimpse of what the rest of the year is going to be like. But I'm ready.
I know I am.
Love Tara
