Hi everybody! After being at crazy ballet bootcamp for five weeks, I'm back, and I think I've never been more tired in my entire life. But next Monday I have to go to Stanford University for two weeks for orientation to my new school- yup, new school! I got into this online high school program for gifted students that is run by Stanford. It's going to be amazing, because now I'm going to have time for piano, ballet, and art year round! Amazingness! And as if this isn't cool enough, when I get back from California I'm going to Bermuda for a week! Bermuda! :D I'm liking my life right now. A lot :aww:. And while I've been gone, I see that, as usual, everyone has been at work on some wonderful art. Lots of wonderful Romanov-y art. So, with that, I'll say cheerio, with lots of :heart: from me and my two dear kittens Charlotte and Antoinette. Carry on!

Ouch, ballet boot camp. Sounds painful.

But wow! High school online... sounds awesome! I'd totally say 'sign me up!' but it's my senior year and there's no point now, really.

Yes, ballet bootcamp was up there on the pain scale. It was also very exhausting. But I enjoyed it, because I'm just that crazy!

Ha, yes, it's going to be fun, I think... it was also my senior year too. I switched because I was so unhappy at my boarding school! I couldn't dance all year round, and even when I could, it wasn't at my level. And the people were kind of shallow and mean. Ever read the book Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld? Well, the school in that book is exactly like my school. EXACTLY. No joke.

But the good news is, since I have a late birthday, I'm just going to repeat junior year, taking some different classes, so that I can adjust to the program before getting nightmarishly swamped with college applications! Yay! And I'll just graduate when I'm 18 like everybody else! So yeah. I'm going to make this work for me. I just wish I had found out about it earlier!

Cool! That sounds great. I go to a public school, which has a pretty decent theater program, so I can't complain too much.

And no, I've never read Prep... but I've heard it's pretty awful. You have my sympathy.
