Ballet and Rollerskating!

Hey! Sorry that I havent blogged in a while! But I havent really had much to blog about =[ But, now I do because the dreaded, awful, horrifying Break Week is over! Just in case you dont know what break week is, it is when there is NO dance!!! Unless your teacher decides to hold class. But my teacher didnt schedule classes for me, so I was pretty bored =/, but my teacher deserves a break, haha any of my teachers deserve a break to be able to recuperate from my classes craziness! I bet during break weeks they have to get counseling. It wouldnt actually surprise me. Haha. Then on wednesday night I became sick and so on thursday and friday I just stayed in bed and read books all day, I read a total of 16 books! I never thought that I could get tired of reading! But I DID, whenever I would try to read a book after that, the words would just swim in front of my eyes and I wouldnt be able to read it. =[ Well now Break Week is over, so my life is slowly returning back to normal. Well that is what happened over this last few weeks, for those of you who wondered where I had disapeared too. Haha

Ok, so yesterday, I had my first REAL day back at dance and, well I didnt do so well. . . . . tear. . . . . . I think that I worked on fouettes for 45 minutes, and they didnt get much better. That was really discouraging for me. =[ But they will probably (hopefully) be better friday since I am going to work on them more today =]. I think that I was corrected on almost everything that you CAN be corrected on for fouettes! And I was corrected on it multiple times and they STILL werent looking any better. Those fouettes are definitely not my strong points! Oh, goodness as I am writing this all those corrections are floating, no make that banging hammers, in my head. This always happens, all these correction from dance just stay in my head and they just bother me and bother me and bother me, like buzzing flys, or something, in my head! And they stay there til I get it right! And when I get it right, IF I get it right they are still there, but only as reminders, so they are not as annoying as flys. But its really kind of weird walking around with like, bajillions of corrections from everything in my head just reminding me of all the things I cant do yet! And its not just dance (though thats the majority) there is stuff from school, and church, writing class, presentation class, and drama. I dont know why, but I can still remember correction from when I first started ballet, and they still are in my head! Of course I dont usually get those corrections, but they are still in my head, for when I do get them. Ok. . . . I did not really mean to write all of that. . . hmmm. Oh well haha. Here is a picture of me and my friend Andrea from Ballet.

Awww, isnt she pretty!

After ballet on wednesdays I have Bible Study and since it was Spring Break for most of them, we decided to go Rollerskating! Yay! I had only been rollerskating once before, so I was pretty nervous! But I did alright! I think I ran into the SAME little girl twice though! Haha, but that was when I first went on the rink. I was better after that! I was actually pretty fast and I didnt trip that much! I was actually really good at balancing! Surprise! I wasnt a total klutz! Even though I ran into my own share of little kids, I'm sure they'll get over it after a few monthes of counseling. Haha. The whole entire time I had Ana's voice in my head saying "squeeze your butt," "squeeze your stomach," "squeeze everything" "stand up straighter!" See I told you I had all these corrections in my head! But this time they helped! Ok, I admit it they ALWAYS help. So I wasnt a total disgrace at rollerskating! Here are some pics of us at the rollerskating rink. Anna, Jillian, Kelly, and Chelsea

Here is some of the girls eating and talking, I dont think that they EVER stop talking! Kelly and Meg

And here is a pic of Kelly and Meg.Anna

And here is Anna being silly.

Ok, I hope you enjoyed this post and that you come back soon!

And what I just wrote sounded like a flight attendant! Haha. "Thank you for flying with (insert airplane company) , I hope you enjoyed your flight, come visit us again soon on (insert airplane company) ,have a wonderful day."

Oh, and please comment! =]

This was a very nice post! I expecialy like the part when you run into the same person twice! =] lol! Oh and the part when you say the corrections were running through your head that kinda creeped me out....... and now my corrections are coming back..... Ana: "Squeeze your stomach muscles 24/7" Me: "I don't have any" Ana: "If you squeeze them 24/7 trust me they'll be there." Me: "Yes Ma'am" jk I said: "ok" Well thanks for reading my boring story/comment! =]
Lots Of Love,
Hannah
