  1. I always have a few books on the go. Currently I'm working on Pilgrim's Progress . My U.S. history teacher thinks it is absolutly vital that we attempt it. I'm also reading the book The Design of Everyday Things . I hope to attack Sophie's World before school starts.

    CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.) is currently broadcasting Orphan at my Door by Jean Little in installments. I'm making sure that I tune in everyday, since Jean Little is one of my favourite authors.

  2. I know this might sound strange, but if she commutes, metro tickets are normally appriciated (The cost tends to build up). Other than that, tights, tights and more tights! Or a rubik's cube, to pass time backstage at performances. Mine was the best present I ever got! I now own two so I can always have one in my ballet bag. I know that's not really related to ballet, but for me, it is essential.

  3. I don't know if i'm posting this in the right place. Anyway, here's my question...

    I love knitting and I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get some knitting patterns related to ballet? For example, one of those bun covers or a sweater. I'm only a beginner knitter (I can't do anything with more than two needles) so it cannot be too complicated.

  4. I know you asked for one thing, but I have a bigger wish list:

    I would like to see boxes of bandaids that only contain the little round ones. I'm fed up of having to buy the full boxes. I now have hundreds of regular bandaids and it's getting a bit expensive!

    I would also like to see pointe shoes that come in wider sizes than they do now. Especially in small sizes.

    And one last thing, invisible-style hair nets that last more than 4 classes. Really durable ones would be great!

  5. I love the movie Ballet Shoes. I'm pretty lucky because my academic school's library has a copy (which I've borrowed many times). I also like the movie White Nights. The plot and atmospheric music are horrible but in one scene Baryshnikov turns 11 pirouettes!!! I'm not kidding! I watched it slide by slide. There was no cutting in the film, or merged scenes. I still rent that movie, just for that scene!
