The big day

May 2016
"Today is the big day☺️" Lyanda thought to herself. Today was the day she auditions for the "IWANTDAT" music video with Mindless behavior. She was only going because she had a super huge crush on Princeton and her best friend was Elijah J. "Let's get it, let's go😬" I said to myself. I walked out of my LA condo and walked to my Dodge Charger. I started my car up and started driving. 5 minutes into driving I was finally at my destination. I walked out of my car to see a hella long line of nothing but female dancers, so I fell into line right behind them. Then out of no where the line started screaming. Of course I was lost😭. Then I seen the most handsome man in the world🙂. PRINCETON😍😩! He was picking pretty girls to go inside of what looked like a warehouse. When he reached me I froze. We had a staring competition for about 2 minutes, I couldn't help but smile☺️. "Proceed inside Bonita."
As I made my way inside I reached a table that said "SIGN IN" so I put my name on the sign in sheet and also on a sticky tab and placed the. Sticky tab on my shirt. As I continued to walk I noticed another sign that said "DRESSING ROOMS & LOCKERS" . After I can out of the dressing room wearing my grey sweats, a black crop top, and black & white nikes (side picture).

When I can out the dressing room I noticed that there were girls dancing & stretching to music from the upcoming album. I put my "Pink" bag in a locker and pulled out my head phones & my phone and played "#IWANTDAT" it was only right cause that's the song we were dancing to. Two minutes into the song Mike, Princeton, & My baby Elijah walked in💜🤗 (I knew Elijah before MB. Back in his "Kidz Bop" days. He is my best friend.). I went to put my headphones & phone in the locker I was using & lined up with the rest of the girls. Their Walter began to speak. " Thank you ladies for coming out tonight. You will be auditioning to be a MB back up dancer. If you do good you will remain a MB backup dancer for the tour if you are willing. So do good or you gots to go😉". Then the music started to play.

Then one by one girls started dancing. After 10 girls went up and only one made it I was getting a little nervous😩. But I had no time for that because it was my turn. I started to catch the beat then I started bucking, spinning, twisting, and doing all the majorette & hip•hop dances I knew that looked good. When I was done I stood there sweaty & shaking from my nerves being so bad at the time. Then Walter began to whisper something & I couldn't clearly piece together what he was saying but it had to be something good for Elijah & Prince to be smiling uncontrollably. "Lee you made it☺️" Elijah mouthed to me. I was super duper excited. I went back to my place in line & watched the other dancers, they were really good to but only 2 more dancers made it. "Thank you for the ladies that came out😘 better luck next time😉. Now that we got out 3 prince take you pick please." Leeinda😉" he said, Elijah sent him a dirty look. "Um it's Lyanda (lie•an•da)😐" I said seriously. " My bad Shawty😎". Then I proceeded behind him. Elijah picked a girl named Gina (side picture).

Mike had no choice but to pick the last girl standing. Her name was Bahja (side picture).
