Nine hours.  Nine hours at the stage rehearsing for the demo tomorrow and preforming Coppelia.  It was ammmmmaaaazzzziiiinnngggggggggggg!!!  When you have a long show the trick is not to dance flawlessly and not mess up because that's not possible.  The trick is to hide and cover up your mistakes.  Because in a show that long, you are going to make mistakes.  In ballet, 'you got fake it till you make it.'  It was a long day and I will have to go into more details later.  Another thing I could mention is that after I was down, I soaked my feet in ice cold water which was freezing obviously but good for me.  One show down, one more to go!  Once things settle down I'll get you guys a proper update with more details.  Anyways, as always, have a great day and just keep dancing! ~Mia
