Black Swan and how "it" feels...

I saw a sign... "nothing tastes as good as thin feels". I wouldn't know.
I am still "hungry" all the time. I haven't been able to follow any of my "rules", I haven't managed to start Atkins again, and I'm still in pain and snoring, so - obviously I haven't yet made up my mind.

what ever.

I watched a discussion between the interviewer, the movie critic and the prima ballerina about Black Swan. Many ballerinas, primas and less so, have been complaining about the director's decision to let Natalie Portman to keep her mind, and dance herself. She practiced a year. Yes, she can dance ballet, but she isn't that good at it. Even I can see it, and I can't dance. I wish I could...

Obviously I have a "Greek" foot. My big toe is shorter than the one next to it. Oh well. That means I need to pad my pointe shoes.

I just want to dance... I understand why people decided to stand on their toes... it is the closest we get to flying...

I actually thought they stand on the "knuckles" of the feet... but they do stand on the big toe... fascinating.

These feet belong to Paloma Herrera...

"Though beautiful, pointe work is very painful.
Many injuries result from the force being put on the feet and toes.
These injuries can be minor, such as blisters, or major, such as a broken ankle.
Other injuries caused by pointe shoes are bunions, ingrown toenails, tendonitis, os trigonum syndrome, osteoarthritis, and stress fractures."

No... they are not pretty. But she is...

Ah... one day...
