Horse

So, about a month ago, my best friend, Kayla, and myself decided to participate in our school's talents show.

The last day to sign up, on a spur of the moment, we ended up signing up. We really didn't know what we were gonna do at first, all we knew is that we wanted it to be funny. Our original idea was to do interpretive dancing in a comical way, but we decided that wasn't quite original and a little over done. Looking for ideas, Kayla ended up finding a dancing zebra gif (link); and I was inspired. With the meme of horse head masks going around- I decided that would be the best choice. We decided to be in a 2 person horse costume, and come up with choreography to ridiculous songs.

Sewing it was an absolute PAIN. This was the first time I've ever really used my sewing machine, so the costume part looked horrible. We also had issues getting the horse head mask. The first one we ordered was out of stock, from China, and $25 (luckily, I got a refund.) We were scared that we wouldn't have it in time for the show! To our advantage, the show got delayed due to a snow cancellation.. With the new head ordered, from Utah, and only $18, we were ready. We even had the dance done!(we had a lot of fun with that, taking funny pictures.)

During the show, no one (except those in it) knew who we were. Our act was simply called "Horse" and we were anonymous.

Of course, we didn't place. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd was given to REAL talent. Making everyone laugh was worth it all!
