oooops... I've written it but i haven't posted it yet... sorry!
Yes, I've been really very busy with school... it's quite terrible.
Could you tell me what "go pointe" means?? something with ballet? I've read it several times, also in your diary here on DA but I just don't know what it means ^^

love!

To be pointe in ballet means you go on the tip toes of your feet [link]

its really pretty and its definitely a good thing. It means i'm not a baby in the ballet world..i'm an awkward teenager instead!

haha
guess that's really difficult though?
doesn't it hurt? well, i guess with those special ballet shoes..
do you have a pic of yourself doing ballet?
do you have skype?

love!

BehindADisguise In reply to ellichen [2010-02-10 04:25:31 +0000 UTC]

Yeah pointe is difficult, normally it takes 4 years from starting ballet to finally being allowed to go pointe, and thats four years of ballet for 6 hours a week minimum. I don't have any pics of myself doing ballet, with my ED i've pretty much hated taking pictures of myself. I used to have skype on my mac before it died, on my PC i have AIM though. :/ i don't have a mic for skype either...T.T

Oh..things not going so well for you?

I've been doin' alright. Really worn out from school, i don't even get a chance to think about food so i have to cram it in when i do get the chance...I donated some blood today -.-' almost passed out and have been up since 5:45 am T.T which makes me very sad. But i'm out of my psychology class by december ninth! i'm so grateful! My professor made an interesting course very painfully boring and evil...-.-'

i actually wrote your letter yesterday!!! I'll post it later on today!
*well done me*
why did you donate blood? for the "normal" reason or to weigh a couple of ounces less?! or because your body will need lots of energy to reproduce the loss?? well i hope it's for the normal reason. I used to donate 4times a year for all the wrong reasons... *not so well done*
what time do you usually get up?? it's 5:30 for me every day (monday to friday)
why does getting up early make you sad? why did you get up so early?
as i said, I'll post your letter later so you should get it by the start of next week

i do go to school but i take college courses even though i'm in highschool. We have a program in the states called running start where high school students can take a test called the compass test that gauges if you're up to par with college standards and dont need to take high school classes anymore. So i graduate high school this year but i'm taking college courses and my first class doesn't start til 1 PM o.o its so amazing! next quarter(january 4th) i wont have ANY school on fridays!

Oooh that sucks hardcore o.o' i'm sorry, i have yet to catch the swine flu (or H1N1 virus)and yeah sadly that is what we call haha we have the Swine flu, bird flu, anthrax, west nile virus, mononucleosis (AKA Mono, the kissing disease), haha a whole slew oddly named diseases haha XD

T.T i haven't gotten your letter yet, but Thanksgiving kinda set the post off a little bit i'm guessing, just the holidays are hectic as you can imagine (and know) at the post office o.o' and T.T my laptop died so i have to wait til the week normally now to email people back >.<' so annoying....

no idea why it's called swine flu... you don't start grunting or anything... ^^
when is thanksgiving? do you celebrate it? is it really the way you see it in the movies? entire family around a table, huge turkey, everythings sooo idyllic until one of the foul familysecrets comes out and everyone starts strangling eachother??!
we don't do thanksgiving here. we have harvest festivals and stuff all through september and october though, but i guess that's something different.
i know it sounds odd, but what's the weather like your end? do you have any snow yet? we had a spot of snow the other day, but it's just been wet and muddy and grey since...

We dont have any snow yet, but it has been getting rather cold haha like down to 9 degrees Fahrenheit last night. No rain really oddly enough.

Thanksgiving is on November 26th and yeah haha we do sit around a big table with a big turkey and a whole bunch of other food and haha some family secrets come up but we normally just have some joking banter that comes out of it haha no fighting though that would be so much funnier XD.

What's a harvest festival like? i've never really heard of it, (I've only heard of oktoberfest)

I have nooo idea why its called swine flu but we mostly call it the H1N1 haha everything on tv is like WASH YOUR HANDS OR YOU'LL GET IT! USE LYSOL TO SANITIZE EVERYTHING!!!

T.T i have a tummy ache haha i was stupid and ate a doughnut for breakfast...pastries hate me i have decided.

how much is 9 farenheit. harenheit is sooo stupid! no offence... i just googled it... that's -12 C°... that's bloody freezing!! we still have about 30° Farenheit...

well, traditionally harvest festivals were celebrated by peasants to thank God/Heathan Deities for a good harvest. so the word "thanksgiving" would really fit. today it's mostly a service in church. the altar is decorated with fruit and vegetables donated by the parishioners. afterwards there are often big fires and lots of food. in small or very traditional villages everybody brings something to eat and then they eat together under pavillions on a big meadow or the marketplace or something like that. but that's getting rare.

well, doughnuts aren't breakfast, are they..?

I can't convert fahrenheit to celcius if my life depended on it. and haha yeah it is freezing, i'm wearing sweaters WITH jackets together now haha XD next is doubling my socks haha

Ah yeah thanksgiving for us came from our founders (pilgrims) who shared a meal with the indian/natives of our land and gave thanks to the new found land and the people and to God. So now its something that almost everyone here celebrates. Though I celebrate both Korean and American thanksgiving since my family is both.

And haha in America XD Doughnuts are breakfast XD its so not healthy!

i thought you're at college now...? can you explain the difference between highschool and college??? I'm really confused now... what kind of graduation do you have after highschool and what kind of school leaving certificate after finishing college? can you only go to university if you've been to college?

well we have our written abitur in april and the oral one in june, and then I'm finished (provided I don't fail...) and I could start university in september if I wanted to and if they take me.

we have a real snowchaos here in europe... places that barely ever have snow are now under a 40cm layer of it! like northern germany or southern england. my granny lives in southern england and if it snows there, it's close to a miracle and then it only snows 5-6 flakes, but now they're completely snowed in. no electricity, cut off from the village... i'm really worrying about them....
i suppose you have loads of it, eh? they say so on the news anyway... ^^

Uhm College is after high school which high school is the last mandetory school you have to go to. I'm in high school but i take classes at one of the local colleges to jump start getting a degree. You can go to a University depending on the scores you get on the SAT's which is a big placement test basically.

Supposedly we have tons of snow along the mid west and eastern side of the US but where I live since its so close to the sea the temperatures are too warm for snow. We had a light snow fall once this winter and it melted in the morning so :/ yeah haha no snow.

do you know what you want to do after you've finished school?

this weekend is going to be really quite white here... the news says there's going to be tons of new snow and the poeple who clear the roads and stuff are doing extra shifts already. and in some places in germany they're running low on salt...

No haha i'm not super smart kid. Its just an option we have when we get in our second to last year of highschool. I tend to focus on reading, playing music, or drawing and photography. I'm also in a radio class this quarter so I have to work with the schools radio station haha. Its stuff like Punk and Ska and nifty stuff like that .

Oh yeah i heard that over in the Midwest and stuff of the US people aren't even allowed to leave their houses the snow is so bad...You have enough food water and candles and blankets right? Bundle up! Drink lots of water! NO DYING!
