anyway my toes is feeling quite bad
i cant go on demi pointe w/o feeling the pain
after 3 weeks
which get worst after each ballet class
i decided
that im going for an x ray tml
sweets aka hazel will be accompanying me
results will not be out tml =(
i suppose the problem will be classify under Orthopedic
as that was the section they put me under when i called SGH




on a lighter note
i am buying Gaynor Minden Pointe Shoe
like finally
damn excited can!!!!
but this will take quite a few months
longer than those clothes sprees i buy online
but still
im very happy can
thought it's gonna cost almost 100 per pair
but im still very happy can
=) X 1 million



i bet u must be thinking why is this gal so happy about buying ballet shoes
it's not easy to find a good pair of pointe shoe
that can last more than 8 months of continuous wearing
and shoes that fits so well n enhances your feet

why gaynor minden?
Because they're on the feet of some of the world's most extraordinary dancers at over 200 major professional companies.
Because they're recommended for students by indisputably great teachers. Because they were invented by a dancer.
 Because they're the only pointe shoes made from modern materials so they can last 3 to 5 times longer.
Because they are quiet.
Because they were designed for the highest and most daring level of artistic achievement.





so does that convinced u to spent over hundred for this pair of shoe where u can get other pointe shoe at 60 bucks in singapore?




on top of that
Because of its modern materials, Gaynor Mindens last much, much longer than other pointe shoes.
In an independent study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine (Vol. 26, No. 4), Gaynor Mindens were compared to other popular brands and we include here excerpts from the published study titled:






that's why im so happy can

below is the intro to pointe shoes
(for those who are still puzzled about what i mean as "pointe shoe")













Binding: the fabric channel through which the drawstring runs

Box or Block: the stiff toe cup that encases the toes

Box Liner: the soft fabric that lines the inside of the box

Girth: the measurement around the widest part of the foot, at the metatarsals at the ball of the foot

High Profile: a pointe shoe box, often cylindrical, with a relatively large space between the outer sole and the top of the foot

Low Profile: a pointe shoe box with a generally flat shape and a relatively small space between the outer sole and the top of the box

Metatarsals: the five bones between the ankle and the toes. Pointe shoe fitting is especially concerned with the area near the ball of the foot

Outer Sole: the bottom part of the shoe, usually made of synthetic or leather, which is in contact with the floor when the dancer stands in the normal flat position

Platform: the part of the pointe shoe on which the dancer stands when en pointe

Pronation: the rolling inward of the foot so that when standing flat, more weight is on the ball of the foot than on the outside

Quarter: the part of the shoe covering the sides and heel of the foot

Shank: the stiff insole that provides support

Sockliner: the soft fabric that lies directly underneath the foot and runs the length of the shoe

Supination: the rolling outward of the foot so that when standing flat, more weight is on the outside of the foot than on the ball of the foot

Throat: the opening of the shoe nearest the toes

Vamp: the part of the shoe that covers the tops of the toes and the foot

Vamp Elastic: wide, firm elastic sewn at the throat of the shoe to extend the vamp and cover the top of the foot

Winged Box: a box with extra-long, stiff sides



hope that makes u guys clearer on what is pointe shoe
