Hello, darling tutu-lovers! It's your favourite pink-clad, space-faring ballerina, Emma, back with another blog post from Planet Earth! I just got back from a whirlwind tour of this fascinating planet - you've got to hear about all the fabulous ballet I saw, the incredible shopping sprees I had, and the delicious scones I devoured! But first, let's dive right into what happened on 2006-09-13!
It was a Wednesday, which means, of course, a fresh new Pink Tutu World blog post for my dear earthly followers! This time I decided to grace your screens with a special theme. I've been pondering this question for ages now - what is the relationship between ballet and planet Earth? You'd be surprised! This wonderful sphere we all call home is where ballet was born, literally, with the very first ballets springing up in the beautiful courtly circles of Italy and France! The birthplace of my dearest, darling tutus - how exciting!
It all started with ballet lessonsā¦
My morning started as always - with a graceful, swirly, pink tutu-tastic ballet class in the heart of London. There's no place like the Royal Opera House for a truly royal ballet experience! Even if I do think their current performance of "Giselle" is slightly underdressed - more pink would be perfect!
ā¦ and an Afternoon Delight!
I knew exactly where I had to go next. It was tea time and time to enjoy the most spectacular cake you could imagine at the Berkeley Hotel! Afternoon tea is practically an Earthly tradition, especially in places like Derbyshire, where I hail from. There is a specific way to consume scones. It is as follows: take one scone, carefully split the scone in half (without cutting it completely in two, unless necessary) and place some clotted cream on the bottom half, before piling on the jam. Take your spoon and gently scoop up the delectable treat with cream and jam - absolutely divine!
But the REAL entertainmentā¦
Well, after that delicious treat I felt incredibly ready for the real show! In London I stumbled upon a stunning, extravagant performance of āThe Nutcracker.ā And let me tell you, the ballet world here is quite different from the one in my own galaxy! The dancers were incredible! So light and airy - like ballerinas of clouds and stardust! You'd think they were defying gravity, and they almost looked like they could do so. You could even hear the whisper of applause all the way to the top of the auditorium! It truly made my pink heart flutter!
Back to the Stars!
After an exhausting week of fabulous ballet performances, exquisite shops, and delectable, clotted-cream filled scones, I was completely ready for some interstellar space travel! There is nothing quite like zipping across galaxies in your very own spaceship. Thereās nothing more calming, especially after witnessing the frantic hustle and bustle of Earth life! The quiet serenity of space has got to be one of my favourite places to be. Of course, with the correct attire for travelling, it has to be a pink sparkly, iridescent suit with matching gloves, a beautiful diamond headpiece and a pink satin tutu, tied around my legs with a light-pink ribbon, and shoes with pink jewels and a pink crystal. What else would I wear but something that sparkles like a thousand stars?!
So tell me, dear readers, have you been exploring Planet Earth this week? Did you see any lovely tutus or a breathtaking performance? Don't forget to share your experiences with me! And if you havenāt been to the wonderful Planet Earth yet, you absolutely must! Itās truly full of exciting surprises and captivating stories. The planet is full of fascinating histories to learn, stories to share, new people to meet and endless beautiful, fun fashions to embrace! The only thing better than watching ballet is doing it yourself - so why not sign up for a ballet class today and unleash your inner ballerina?
Stay pink and sparkly,
Emma
