~you point your feet in gym, even when doing leg exchanges. Especcially leg exchanges. ~when you want to move fast,
well, you could run, but it always comes out step-ball-change, step-ball-change... ~anytime not previously sechduled
is time to stretch ~you get mad at cheerleaders- they don't point their feet ~you can do more sit-ups than the
jocks ~when everyone else says "ow," you say "but that's so easy!" ~you worship "Center
Stage" and Martha Graham religiously ~splits aren't hard, they're a fact of life ~it's hard to count higher
than "8" ~you don't worry what you look like in a bathing suit. It's just like your leotard, and you wear
that every day. ~Center stage isn't a place, it's home. ~you own hair gel. LOTS of hair gel. ~the top shelf
of your closet is filled with discarded dance shoes and leotards ~"do you mean class class or dance class?"
~"what's your studio?" is a conversation starter ~you use the time you're logging on the internet or booting
up the computer to practice splits ~you don't understand when people don't know what plies are ~you scare people
'cause you kick so high ~you fight with your life when people diss dance ~"I take karate." "Well,
I take dance!" ~cracking your back is fun ~when you hear music, you start counting in series of 8s ~you
can whip up a ponytail in 5 seconds flat ~you can't remember a time when your legs didn't ache ~you speak French,
yet your language class in school is Spanish ~when the rest of the civilized world is eating dinner, you are beginning
warmups and torturing yourself in various ways in dance class ~you hear classical music and you want to dance ~you
have like 10 pairs of shoes but none that you could wear to the school dance ~you know what Pilades are ~you know
that a shrug is not a gesture, but an article of clothing ~you friends are talking about how they need a new shirt and
some mechanical pencils. You are talking about how you need new ballet shoes and a leotard. ~oh, you have a life, all
right, it just revolves around studios and stages ~you check your fav dance sites before you check your Email ~you
do not threaten to punch ppl, you threaten to kick them...and they get scared! ~you're on this website and you're reading
