Dear Diary,

It's been a while since I have wrote to you. I haven't really had time.

Well, where am I right now? I am on a bus headed to Los Angels. Why? Because I am going to be performing there. After that demon that had us all singing and dancing, I realized how much I loved to dance, and that I was pretty darn good to. So I told Buffy the next day that I wanted to take dancing lessons. Buffy thought it was a good idea and was all like it could give you a normal life.

Then the next tricky decision I had to make was what type of dancing I would like to do. So I chose what seemed that would be easier. Hip hop. That was the day I learned that I don't have a funky bone in my body. I mean I just looked weird doing all those moves.

Then I chose ballet. Miss Monica said I was a natural, and that I had the body of a ballerina, and quickly got me to try pointe, a ballet dance on your toes. It was like it was meant for me. At the beginning of the next school year Miss Monica had be try out for a ballet company that practiced after school on a ballet, then went performing around the world during the summer.

I was excepted into the company. I got chose as not the star of the ballet, but not the spear carrier either. It was a nice part, and I was very proud of it.

The school year went by quickly for once. Then summer came, and the first place the company is performing is Los Angels. That is why I am on a bus headed there. I told Buffy that I was going to see Angel. I'm not sure what she feels about that. She didn't say anything really.

So I called Angel the other day, and he said he lived and worked in an old Hotel that I should stay there. He warned me first that a lot of stuff has happened since I saw him last, and I said it couldn't be as much as that had happened to me. Then he laughed! He laughed! I don't really think I have ever heard him do that. I also told him that since he was letting me stay with him the least I could do was give him and his friends tickets to see the ballet. He agreed enthusiastically. I've never really heard a guy that thrilled to get tickets to a ballet…….unless Spike is right, and he really is a poof, heheh.

Well I've got you pretty much up to date, and that's a good thing cause I'm almost there.

Sincerely,

Dawn Summers
