'You Like Me!...You Really Like Me!'

I'm often told Sally Fields and I have a resemblance. We aren't related, and that has nothing to with today's post, other than that quote was exactly how I felt after I left my audition today.

I auditioned for a yoga teaching job. Unlike a dance audition where you are evaluated as the instructor teaches, or a normal job interview where you converse about past experiences; instead the three other people and myself each taught for about 10 minutes each. The studio is really beautiful, in Chelsea, and has two fabulous owners. The other three prospectives have all taught before, so I didn't exactly divulge the fact that I haven't taught more than twice, or to more than 3 students at a time.

I went second, and since the style I do is different everyone had to pay extra attention. They also loved my music! After getting compliments post class and meeting some new people, I left with a new spring in my step. It didn't hurt that there is live acoustic guitar on the weekends, either! Whether I get the job or not I will be going to this place, and hopefully I can find a small community there?! 

As for resemblance...I'm hoping a blond curly wig (from a dance recital ages ago) and a fur-collared coat I haven't found yet will complete my Halloween costume this year. I've decided to go as Penny Lane...now if I can just find a Russell Hammond, or William Miller, or both?!
