Journal 115
Sunday - 12-19-10
Private w/ Vitaly - changing rooms were open!! -- "It wasn't bad… You just did it… So.. *Sweetly!*" // "Can you even be aggressive??"
Chat Log -- Responding to, "How are you?" -- I was really good, because:
MK: Mostly because I just got back from watching, "The Nutcracker" a little while ago
MK: And I'm still basking in the awesomeness of that
MK: (The Bolshoi Troupe)
MK: And I'm eating chocolate and waffle cookies
MK: And I had a lesson with Vitaly today
MK: And the changing room was open, thank God
MK: And there was a pretty hilarious part of the lesson
MK: Basically, Vitaly asked me, "Can you even do that? [Be aggressive]" (We were working on Paso. and he said that in a way that made it sound like he pretty much figured it was impossible for me to do.)
MK: And I tried again, and he started laughing -- and I said, "Yeah, go ahead, keep laughing."
MK: So, he said I started it
MK: That I had laughed first
MK: And I said if I did, it's only because I know he will always laugh when I do something really wrong
MK): He said, "Not always!" and I said, "Yeah, always."
MK: Well, apparently, this time, he wasn't laughing because it was wrong (well, it still was, but not terribly, I guess), but because, "You did it so... *Sweetly* / *Gently*!!"
MK: In a dance that is supposed to be all, "Rawr, I'm going to f*&k you up!!!!!"
MK: Ha ha ha
MK: So then I just laughed again, and said, "I know... I know... I'm too nice... You already told me I need to be a b&*#h…"
MK: And he just burst out laughing, I guess, remembering that, and then said, "Well... Not all the time..."
