::I GOT MY POINTE SHOES::

::I got my pointe shoes yesterday at 12:00 at Brio Bodywear. I was nervous when we first got to the store and Gilbert(the pointe shoe guy) took us into the point shoe room. He first looked to see whether the bones in my feet had fused together or not. My bones had not yet fused. He had my try on some pointe shoes to see if they were to small or not. He had my stand in first position in a plié to see if my toes were straight or bent. Then he had me hold onto the bar and go up on pointe to see if they hurt a lot. If they hurt, they were crossed off the list. I ended up with Bloch Balance European size 5.5 x. The x is the width. No x is the skinniest and xxxx is widest. I'm a little sad because I have to wait a whole week before I can use them. We don't have dance during March Break :( I'll post pictures when I get home. Bye::
