My Jelly Toes (Part II)

This is what i meant to write about a couple of hours ago before i decided that i should first defend my rights as an innocent Malaysean.

Ever had that feeling of tensing and pulling up your every muscle in your body, imagining squeezing out every mililitre of intra and inter cellular fluid out of your cells, and then locking your body in that position for a whole hour? Straightening your legs like you can't no more, as you concentrate on "tummy in, buttocks in, pull up, chin up" while your entire body piles its weight unto that teeny weeny 15cm square of area under it?

Ever felt the fatigue so strong that both your knees go weak (no kidding...this is really bad), your calves practically scream for a rest, your toes go numb with pain, yet you know it's still only the beginning?

Ever been en pointe?

FInally picked up my pointe shoes today to practise for the first time since a month ago.
SOO happpeee! =)

...

Mind over body what...

P/S: Jelly toes are the jelly bands you put around your toe to cushion it. very expensive for such simple things.
