I forgot to post yesterday. Was too tired after all the big events. Biggest event was that there was a dress rehearsal at my dance studio for all of the competitive team students. It was so much fun, having our hair done full out with stage makeup and our costumes. Really exhausting, but such a fun experience (: It was also great to be able to watch some of the other dances. I'm really looking forward to competition season! It's like a month away!

Today I went to McDonalds for lunch after church. Pretty typical lunch and all, until I went to the washroom to wash my hands after touching all the grease and stuff. A girl came out of one of the stalls (I was waiting) and she tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around, and she held her hand up. Puzzled and confused, I high-fived her. (Then I went into the stall). I was thinking about the whole event, and it seemed like, I'm not sure, but she was different in some way. At first I thought she was a mute, but then I realized she could talk (heard her talking to herself while she was washing her hands). Her speech was choppy and only comprehend-able to a certain degree though, so I figured she had some kind of disability though. It was actually such a cool experience, because right after I high-fived her, I saw like the biggest smile on her face, as if that one little action made her day or something. Pretty cool if you ask me. Definitely keeping her and this event in prayer tonight (:

I worked very hard once I got home form church this afternoon, because I wanted to go to the Y in the evening. Of course, with perseverance, anything is possible, so I did manage to finish the work that's due tomorrow before going to the Y. It felt so good to be able to work out again, after not having gone to the gym for a week. It's like that refreshing feeling after you've done something really good. Nice feeling. I'll definitely be making the most out of my membership and going to the Y more often during March Break. Did I mention that there's only 4 more days (of school) until March Break? Eeeekss, I'm so excited!

I have my whole March Break planned out already, pretty much. University visits, friend gatherings, and TC. That should all be a blast (: I really hope and pray that God will be at the centre of all of it though, because it's so easy to leave God aside during breaks and long weekends.

I'm getting my new pointe shoes (the ballet shoes with the hard toe block that you balance on) sewn today. Yay. It's actually so amazing. Getting new pointe shoes really made my day. Reason behind the new shoes? My old shoes got soaked by a leaking water bottle in my dance bad. The shoe became really hard and like the shape changed, and even after it dried, the inside of the shoe felt damp. Basically, I couldn't dance in them anymore. So yeah, new shoes! I look forward to using them in class tomorrow! Hopefully we'll do pointe tomorrow (:

Oh look, today's post is already so long. I guess because really I was combining yesterday and today's post into one longer post. Anyway, back to homeworking now. Hopefully I'll have time to do my nails tonight before bed, and also have time to post tomorrow. Wish me luck. Toodles!
