For the past few weeks I have been failing horribly to keep up with the relevés/calf lifts/basically anything at all with any potential to increase strength. I've been going up to brush my teeth at night and just feeling so exhausted that the entire concept of doing anything more demanding than sitting on the toilet lid while my electric toothbrush magically cleans my teeth for me is just TOO much. But there is no choice, now, dudes. I had better double down or GTFO.
Because tonight my teacher looked at me pointedly and told me she wanted to test me in to pointe within the next few weeks.
To which I say: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basically.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!! Oh I need to get on that too but because my 4 weeks off was bad for me... I couldn't pull myself up to save my life Thursday.
ReplyDeleteYipeeee! I will live vicariously through you! Argh is right, but also YAY!
ReplyDeleteWhen I told my instructor that I want to work toward getting my horribly uncooperative weird foot into a pointe shoe, I think she kind of snorted derisively as in "Wtf are you thinking you old lady?"
my teacher says it doesn't matter how old you are, only how strong you are!
