Bittersweet

Summer Intensives are over and my teachers (Mr. and Mrs. F) and retired now. It’s really… Bittersweet.

I knew it was coming and I was prepared for it, but it is still sad to see them go because they have taught me so much! They have shown me not only good ballet technique but also how to be an artist. They may be done teaching now (though no one can stay away from what they love and I'm sure they will teach again someday) , but I will forever carry their words of wisdom with me. This is just the beginning of something great in my life and my love of dance!

Thank you so much Mr. and Mrs. F! It was appreciated more than you know!

Surprise!

In dedication of my first day of Ballet Intensives and my promise to post something special… *drum role please* Here is a picture of me actually executing a arabesque! My extended leg isn’t very high and I need to square my shoulders, but I think it pretty good for a picture taken in front of church with friends being silly!



In other news, I’m making a doctors appointment tomorrow for my toe. My toenail fell off (because of pointe) a few weeks ago and its really been hurting to do pointe lately. I hope all goes well! Maybe he will prescribe a magical pain numbing cream! Lol, one can only hope!
