When The Going Gets Tough..

..the tough most definietly gets going! I started the week on a real low, I was told I have shin splints! For those of you who don't know what shin splints are, they are AGONY! So after breaking the news to the elf about my broken shin he was not best pleased neither was 'The pixie' ( this is my ballet teacher, the name says everything), apparently it is my own fault for not keeping my weight forward.
 We had to record a song in singing class yesterday and it went suprisingly well! I didnt forget my words and I didnt laugh, which was difficult when you are staring at yourself in a mirror. I had to sit out of tap today and I was heart broken! It is the one class where my feet do what they are told, my clumsyness can be disguised easily and my heavy elephant like feet are perfect for the job that needs doing!
So we finish on a jazz class, the class I hate the most but of course its the class that wont hurt my shin.. We spent an hour doing high kicks ( I say high but leg off the floor is a chore in everyday life for me), swing ball changes which is basically using up loads of space looking like you have no control of your legs, YEAH something I do naturally! Then to finish we did bodyrolls, now I was sure I had this one down. I have had loads of practice on nights out on the dance floor bodyrolling my way through 'sexyback' but no. I want as advanced as working my bodyrolls and my feet at the same time so it gave everyone a good laugh!
Now im off to go recite a monologue about how the person I love is dead... ah such lovely memories.
