The Goblet of Fire

I have just finished Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It was very good and I spent almost all of today finishing it! Now I will read the 5th book. I am getting closer to the end of the series, and I can't wait to finish them to see what happens to everyone! I have made a goal to not watch the movie before I finish the book! So, I have seen the movies up to number 3, and will watch the 4th movie soon! I am a little behind everyone else, but oh well!

My Pink Ballet Slippers


I think ballet is such a beautiful art. I have not been dancing very long, but since I have started, I have fallen in love with it! The shoes, the costumes, the hair, I just love it all. I have been having some trouble with getting my posture right, and getting my arms and feet doing two completely different things at the same time. Even though it is a lot of work, I think it is worth it. In ballet, I love the costumes and accessories that dancers can wear. For Christmas I am asking for a long-sleeved leotard and stirrup leg warmers (these are the leg warmers that go over the ballet slipper and hook under neath in the arch). I am so excited to wear them. I love pointe shoes also, and hope I can get better fast, so I can wear the beautiful pointe shoes soon. But for now, I will be satisfied with my pink ballet slippers.

Audrey Hepburn

 I have been doing a project on Audrey Hepburn for English, and have found out many new facts about her.
Audrey endured the Nazi occupation in Holland during World War II.
Audrey studied ballet when she was young.
Audrey served as the goodwill ambassador for UNICEF. She helped many children around the world who were in poverty.
Audrey is a fashion icon around the world.
These are just a few things I learned while doing this very long project, that I am still not done with!!

 I have seen some of Audrey Hepburn's films and these are a couple I like. "Wait Until Dark," is a movie where Audrey stars as the blind woman, Suzy Hendrix. I also like "Charade."
Audrey's career was successful and many of her films are now considered to be classics.
