Everything Lately

So life. For me it's just been summery life. Swimteam, relaxing, thinking how I need to work on 4H stuff but not really doing it becasue it's to early even though it's not to early. That kind of thing. This is the time of year when you just get a chance to relaxxx.


... or go photograph. The Sapphire watermark is edited in, not actually on the camera ;)
    And recently I discovered Dance Moms. Oh, yes. It's good :) It's very good (all two episodes that I've seen anyways.) And I've been getting much closer to my splits. And I'm going to a movie called First Position tomorrow. Then dance camp is next week. Yeah, lots of dance. :)
And new pointe shoes! YAYNESS.


Other than that I've pretty much just been swimming. And reading (of course) Yesterday I brought a book to my swimmeet. Not weird at all. It's a good book, though. This week I'm planning a big and important post. And redesigning my blog. And doing other things of course :)

  3. Sounds like fun! :D What brand on Pointe shoes are yours? I currently have Bloch Balance Europeans, but I might get different brands the next time I need them. :]

    1. Mine are Capezios. I tried on Blochs at the store and the second I put them on the lady was like "nooooo way" So Caps. are the only way for me :) I have really wide feet too which I just discovered when I went...

  4. Sapphire, how long have you been dancing? And can you give me any advice on how to get my splits? I've been trying and I''m kind of getting close to getting it :)

    1. Hi Chrissy! I've been dancing for nine years, and started pointe this year (9th)

      To be honest, I don't have my splits. I AM working on them though, we can do this together :)

      Tips I've discovered:

      1) there is absolutely NO magic way to get your splits.
      2) the only way to get your splits is to be patient...
      3) And stretch EVERY DAY.

      If you want your splits sooner, do fifteen minutes twice a day. Otherwise just stretch
      once.

      Does this help?
