Ballet

[Lindsey "Littlebit" Sullivan]

I remember my First Ballet recital, I was 7 years old takeing Ballet and Tap. When your that age you don't get nerves about a recital. When I was 7 I my main concern was making my dad proud of me, so on top of ballet i took t-ball(that was a stupid idea but hey i was 7) so after he showed up late I quit dancing till I 16.

Okay, this was my first big Ballet recital, (I'm the really tall one in the middle)anyone that knows the Sound of Music knows that the song is "16 going on 17". I remember learing the dance bit by bit and think how stupid we looked, but once we put it togeather I could not belive how amazing we looked. When we did are grand jete(the big jump) I almost fell 3 times. ~smiles~ But when I finshed everyone told me that I was an amazing dancer and that I am not allowed to quit. And now I'm on pointe (all the way up on my toes), and I'm glad that I haven't quite, and I never will.
