Keep Dancing

Who among you loves to dance? Who among you dances well? Who among you love's to dance, but cannot dance well? I would always consider my self under the third choice. I always love to dance, but unfortunately I am not good at it. I am taking up my P.E. 2 right now, which is totally about dances. I partly like the idea of dancing, but I wonder if, will I ever be able to pass this. I'm gonna tell you about what happened to me during my P.E. class yesterday, when I had my practicom in dancing. My class starts at 7 am and ends at 9am. I was 10 minutes late when I entered the class because I woke up late. When I saw them lining up in the gym already, my knees began to shake and I feel a little nervous. Then I rushed to my line, and I looked for my dance partner. My classmates were rehearsing already during that time. After many rehearsals, our teacher decided to start grading us, thanked God, it is a group activity, and not by individual. One group started, then another, and finally, our turn came.
I just don't know why, but every time I sing or dance in front of many people, my heart beats fast, then I feel as if cold winds are rushing through my veins, and worst, I feel like I'm gonna faint. What's bad is that when we started to stand in front of everyone, those symptoms slowly appeared yesterday, piece by piece. I can't help it. Then, I tried hard to convince myself to be calm, as calm as I could. I tried to destruct the odd feelings I had by thinking of different things. Then, the music starts to play. I did my best to recall all the dance steps our teacher taught us, and in my surprise, I am hitting on. I am getting the right dance moves and positions. We were almost done, when suddenly I noticed a familiar face staring at me from the other class. Sadly, I was distracted and I was lost. Then I ended up by hearing my dance partner yelling at me saying "keep dancing".
