Did I really just arrange my Summer work schedule around ballet class? Yes. Yes I did. I guess I just like ballet a lot more than my punishing theater job.
I can't say I feel bad about it. Last Summer was awful enough that I was not sure I wanted to go back at all. But, I could use the money. So, there you go. I figure if I'm going to be working 11 hour days in a windowless black room then I at least want to be able to dance, too.
Last year they talked about promoting me to a much more impressive position, but that would mean 6-7 days a week, sometimes 10 hours a day. Forget that, dudes! Ballet is way more fun than that.
I arranged my summer class, work schedule, and fall classes specifically around ballet. Hopefully being a teacher won't ruin it. The higher level classes around her don't start until 6:15 PM and middle and high schools let out at 2:45, so...
ReplyDeleteRight on! It's not worth working for the money if you can't spend it on ballet :)
