Growing up in new york, things were perfect, i had my best friends who i used to watch the latest Barnie episodes with , and walk to school with . We used to do everything together.. i lived in an apartment with luxuries, a pool , a hot tub , a park where i could swing all day , and a running path. I loved it there! My life was always set, and i always thought that new york would be my home forever and always. I never wanted to move nor did i want to leave my friends, that was the worst part. It was weird leaving behind all those memories, like leaving my friends Tiffany, Madeline, Claudia.... they were my life, and unfortunately i haven't spoken to all of them in about over 5 years. I moved from my apartment about 5 years ago, when i heard the news i was so depressed, it was for a new start, and my parents thought that new jersey would be much cleaner and a much better environment, as well as having a top education level.
Then, when i reached new jersey i was amazed to see my community so upbeat , and friendly. At that time , i was the "new kid" at the Livingston Park elementary school. Things, were hard... i had to adjust. i used to go to a private catholic school, but Livingston is a public school so things were VERY different. It was hard making friends at first, but then after a few years down the line things got better. 5th grade was the worst for me because i switched from Livingston to parsons, once again , i had to start my life over. I had to make a new set of friends unfortunately, and some of the kids in my class were just rude, i missed my Livingston friends so much . I was so upset throughout my 5th grade years. Then middle school came along, and 6th grade was so much work because i was adopting into another new school, things were very hard, i missed my new york circle. Then came 7th grade... the best thing had happened to me. i had joined one of the best DANCE SCHOOLS IN NEW JERSEY , named Satrangi.. literally they were the best. I don't know how much to thank these people. They weren't even a dance school , but more of a family. We don'tjjust dance together and do shows, but we pretty much all live together. We go places like for dinners, and movies and hang out all the time... they have been a blessing in disguise.
It all started on January 14th, 2009, when i met the best people of my life. At this time , it was the moment in my life where things weren't so good and satrangi came to the rescue. I would have dance at least twice a week , and in these moments i always will cherish. Besides, meeting twice a week at the dance studio, we would still meet up at other venues, such as restaurants or even ice skating :) . I mean everyone in this family , has a smile or a story to share. They have all said "satrangi has been my life" , you can see other dance schools , just being a "dance school" , walk in .. do some moves, and leave. This isn't like that, we have all bonded as one, we are all their for each other. I have made so many friends it is amazing! They are all friends i can actually trust , and know that they will always be there for me. Without Satrangi, i would be a depressed soul. I don't even know how to repay them all. I LOVE THEM WITH ALL MY HEART... and I'm telling you , you will never find a place like this.
