Classmate Anecdote
November 17, 2022
Sina Diaz is on the Morningside dance team. From dancing, she has learned to be a perfectionist.
In dance, it is common for dancers to be perfectionists because they want to make their routines perfect. A specific time when Sinay showed her perfectionism is when she was performing at the National Championships. Apart of the National Championships, there were two performances. The first is the preliminaries and then the finals. After performing at the preliminaries, the team was ranked first. Instead of celebrating, like most teams would do, Sinay and her team reviewed film to see what they needed to improve on for the finals.
At the time of the National Championships, Sinay was a freshman. She felt a lot of pressure to perform at the championships. Sinay says, “I didn’t want to be the reason we didn’t win.”
Even if Sinay had a perfect performance, she would always look back on film to find something to work on because she says, “I never felt satisfied.”

This is pretty good, Paige. Remember that if you tell the story well, readers will come to the correct conclusion – Sinay is a perfectionist – without needing to be told.
