i should really be studying or sleeping right now but i'm too angry/annoyed to do anything productive. so...i shall blog about my evening.

the kennedy center has this program for people between the ages of 17-25 where you can get tickets to select shows for a really cheap price. tonight, kiwi and i went to see the new york city ballet perform. i got us orchestra seats for only $20! it was both our first times watching ballet live so we were extremely excited for the show. most of the people seated around us were old couples. i thought it was extremely cute. i would love to see shows with my husband when we're old and have nothing to do. it's very romantic :D

i was mesmorized the second the show started. the dancers are freakishly skinny but in a way, it's quite beautiful because it gives them that willowy effect when they dance. it really is beautiful how light on their feet they are. and the men, they are so muscular! haha. i think every girl at some point wanted to be a ballerina until they realize it's more than just wearing a tutu. it really is a form of discipline...just look at their feet. i remember gaining so much respect for ballerinas after watching the movie "center stage". it's one of my top movies <3
