Cece also dances but mainly does ballet at Dance Unlimited. “Dancing is like euphoria” Cece begins to describe “Being able to tell a story and express how I feel through movement and actions is incredible for me. For years i’ve loved dancing. I love it so much it’s basically a part of me” she goes on saying that “Being able to perform in-front of an audience or just dancing around my house gives me a feeling I just can’t explain”  

A day in Cece’s life

    Wake up around 5:30, take a shower, listen to music  Cece mentioned she’s been listening to Anything goes with Emma Chamberlain a podcast by Emma Chamberlain.  She then eats breakfast and gets on the bus to school around 6:45. After School she either goes to dance or theater practice. When she gets home she does her homework. Then she gets to relax by facetiming her friends, reading a book, watching a Netflix show or playing a video game.  Speaking of relaxing, Cece talks about using music and making Pinterest boards as a way to destress after a long day, something that isn’t known to many. “I am the type of person who will make sure you feel loved even to my own expense and I think I am funny” this isn’t just Cece’s opinion of herself it’s something that is well known to people who are close to her. 

Future plans

    As of right now Cece wants to do something that involves her passion for dance such as opening her own dance studio. She mentions how she can’t picture herself living in a big house with a white fence. Cece would prefer to live in a vibrant city such as New York. With her she wants a dog and cat and a matte black dodge challenger. Cece is in my business class and for one of our assignments we created vision statements. Cece shared hers with me. “I will focus on myself, achieve my goals for myself, and won’t do it for anyone but myself”. Next time you’re in the hallways of Urbana keep an eye out for Cece Hartford.
