A little adjustment...
I've recently switched shoes...
A couple months ago, I stumbled across (quite literally) an achilles tendon injury. I was already preparing to finish up with ballet, so if there ever is a good time for an injury, that was certainly it. I'm finding that, although it's a little sad to say goodbye to something that you put years of hard work and devotion into, sometimes that goodbye is necessary in order to say hello to something else. I imagine it's a little like how birds feel when they take off from a nest in the trees in order to try to fly to the stars.
All that to say, now I go around in Toms instead of Pointe Shoes....

... and let me mention that there is absolutely no end of difference between the comfort levels of the two :)
