Interview Questions

1. What is your biggest fear or insecurity, and why?

I fear that I may never be able to find emotional support from my parents again. Ever since they began their divorce, I have slowly detached myself from the family. I got out of the house and sought support from friends. I see my parents as two adults that can financially support me, but not ones that can provide guidance or advice. My fear is that I may not be able to build on that emotional component of my relationship with them, since I have not experience that in so long.

I also fear that since I've detached myself emotionally from my parents, that I may do the same to my other friends. I'm afraid that once I get close to others, I might push them away because of fear to emotionally invest and stay committed in the relationship

2. What makes you most happy?

I do a lot for others, so when I get the time to do something for myself, I feel really happy. One of those things would be dancing in the spotlight. I miss performing and the experience of it all.

At KM auditions this year, Diana asked me, "How does it feel to audition?" I told her that I do not remember because everything I do in that moment becomes a blur to me. When I am put in that spot, everything feels natural and automatic. I do not think of the moves. I just move. My thoughts just move my body and I forget to be self conscious in that moment. When all is done, I can leave feeling alive because I know that I have left everything on the dance floor.

Not Just One Type

Long delay from when I actually planned on blogging about SPOP, but nonetheless, this will be the first, of hopefully many more posts

So the interview process has already begun for this summer’s SPOP. With a record breaking 600+ applications submitted, and only 130 spots to fill, the competition is intense. After conducting a good handful of interviews, you tend to hear a lot of the same answers and tend to repeat your own stories a good dozen times. But when you hear those answers, those ones that show so much depth/personality/history/insight into someone, you are encouraged to believe that there are great individuals out there. Ones that just make you want to see them grow and prosper in this program.

I was talking to my fellow coord, D.Phuong, earlier tonight about the applicants that we really liked. It made me really understand why not everyone on staff is the same person. I always believed that everyone on staff is different and not everyone fits the stereotype of being this loud and crazy staffer that is always on high energy. But when I am actually instrumental in picking how the staff is made up and when I see myself giving “Yes” to two people, who are completely different and have completely different energies & vibes, it’s so obvious that this staff will be a huge spectrum of people. All who can bring great things to the table. All who can be great role models to incoming staffers. All who will be instrumental in making SPOP function this summer.

I can’t wait until the first day of training, when I get to see everyone’s faces; not as applicants, but as staffers.

SPOP 2010 staff, whoever of you it maybe, know that we, the coords, can’t wait to meet you!

First a quickie
