100 posts! The first two years here i had maybe 30 posts.
I had a presentation today on the balsero film (in 1994 cubans used rafts to try and make it to the united states of america). While not the worst or best presentation of my academic career, I loved my handout. The analysis of the scene could have been much stronger, the scene to show to the class should have been shorter... I'm proud of the research and hope my fellow classmates can use some of the cinematography links to understand what we should be doing in English let alone in Spanish. Glad this one is behind me!
Well mid term grades have been posted for ballet. B but I got an 92 on the barre skills test!!!! Her comments were: 'Work on correct placement. Also on stretching feet in tendu. Keep knees straight during ronde jambe-pull up in thigh muscles. Legs pulled up and straight during grande battement.' Will do. The extra credit will pull up the grade at the end, but I can not miss another class... one more observation left for the following six weeks. Thankfully NCUR (National Conference for Undergraduate Research) and the Dance Company will give us some relief from technique class.
Well Elizabeth's bridal shower is in less than an hour and I need to do some homework.

PS. Stopped into Rise Up Coffee this morning for a zebra latte. Delicious! DanceWear Etc. was closed before noon so I swung by after the presentation for a new pair of ballet pink transitional tights. No more runs down both legs!!!
