Skate and Date

I'm at Pleasant Arena (the rink where I skate) and I think it's right before a competition or show, because almost no one is there and I'm practicing. I'm with one other kid and Tara, one of the coaches (not mine, but she does some of my classes). We're focusing on a one-foot spin (something I'll probably NEVER get absolutely perfect) and how to do it well for the show/competition. I try one and fail. Tara draws out what I should be doing. She says, 'Once you go into it, your foot goes around too high and you get stuck.' Basically she's saying that if you lift your leg too high going into the spin you can lose your balance. Then it's the show/competition and I'm 'backstage.' Then I go on with some other skaters and basically do whatever I feel like (guess I never got a program).
Then I'm in some sort of trailer park or state park and I'm with a bunch of people my age. I guess it's summer camp or something. We're supposed to get into partners/groups of 3 to play mini golf. These 2 girls ask me if I want to be in a group with them, to which I agree to do. Then later, one of them says she'd rather be in another group because they seem more trusting.
Then I'm at my dad's house and he's telling me I have a date tonight (with this guy I've been dating a few times in the dream; I never saw it happen, but I do have that information). This is news to me, and I ask what time. He checks something and tells me 4:30. I look at the clock and see that it is 4:25. I freak out a bit, but then realizing that we're going no where special (I don't know how I know that, considering I didn't even know I have a date that night), I decide that what I'm already wearing is fine. Then I meet the guy at the front door (I never got his name) with my glasses on; when I take them off, everything is underwater-blurry. But I keep them off because that's just me. I ask, 'What school do you go to?' and he answers, 'Freeman.' (Is that a real school? Sounds like it could be.) I tell him I go to Mahtomedi; he then asks what college I go to, and I laugh and say, 'I'm not in college yet; I'm only a junior!' Then we leave and we pass Julia in her yard doing tai-chi or something with her mom and a whole bunch of younger kids (I heard earlier that she was going camping that night), and I hug her from behind briefly and kiss the air around her face and say 'Hi Julia! I love you! Camping is awesome!'

Meaning- Skating in a dream shows my love for it already; however, goofing off and doing my own thing in the show probably means I'm not completely serious about it. The tip about spinning is probably real; something to keep in mind. Someone saying I don't seem trusting may mean I lie a lot or have lied (I have, once).
I've been having a couple of dreams about dating..probably meaning that I'm the perfect age to be doing that, and the dreams being practice. Julia, I think, returned from her week-long camp recently, so this was a hello, showing her in the dream. Tai-chi might symbolize relaxation and ease. The glasses thing probably means that if I don't start wearing them soon, I could have a few problems...
