where being comes before doing

ON HER BALLET TRAINING: Krissy started training at the age of 19 to the amusement of friends and to the horror of her parents. She is a Level C student at the Turning Pointe School of Ballet and dances under the tutelage of former soloist of the Philippine Ballet Theater, Ms. Mylene Saldana. Krissy joined the school in August 2004 but went on a leave of absence in January 2005 to attend to her academics. Krissy resumed attendance in July 2005 and is now doing pointe work. She treats each class as another chance to look less like a delusional klutz and more like a ballerina. She hates left turns and pique en arabesques.

Hey, what do you know? My shoes broke in today. See the shank is hugging my arch!



It's great to have them working with me instead of working against me. I'm not sure if it's just psychological but I feel more balanced, more supported, and I'm having an easier time springing up.

I'm fresh from an exam so I decided to skip ballet class tonight. I just want to lie down and let all these post-exam dregs ebb out so that I can move on in life. It's a little sad but I'll be back in class this Friday and that, my friends, is something I live for.
