I have had an idea. It’s crazy but I wonder whether I can make my own accompaniment for the showcase. I don’t think it’s something people do, which is surely why it’s a good idea? Maybe I can even do the vocals? I’ve never written music but Tom can help with production and beats and stuff. Mum’s getting singing lessons so maybe she can be my backup singer HAHA.

Actually, maybe it doesn’t even need a beat. Maybe I can dance to something a cappella? Is that a thing? Surely if there’s no audible beat, then giving them a beat they can SEE could be something, couldn’t it? At the moment I feel like I have a beat inside me that everyone can see just when I’m walking around. Sometimes it hurts but mostly it’s just pumping pure anger into me. This is good. Strong emotion enhances performance, everyone always says. And it burns energy. I have burned A LOT of energy today. Maybe I should be thanking Harry.

Grande battement translates to BIG BEAT. My grand battement felt crappy today. Not even 100 degrees. Développé better but not ideal. Teacher said it’s probably a strength thing but I don’t want any more bulk in my thighs. I’ll get up early and stretch some flex into my hips.

Song lyrics brainstorm: (What do I want to say?)

I think I want to say sorry to myself for giving myself away like that, to an arsehole. For putting myself in a trash film version of my life. For trusting.

. . .

I’ve been living lies and breathing smoke

I gave all your time and love to ghosts

. . .

Or a message to All Men? Turn it around, Teddy.

. . .

I don’t want to write a song about FUCKHEAD HARRY.

In schools our children should be taught that men have a natural tendency to be arrogant knobs. Boys should sit exams about how not to be and girls should be taught how to be. To protect themselves, how not to trust, how to be a role model for their daughters. Put that in a song and dance the bejesus out of it.

Raar.
