As *insert adjective that conveys difficulty* as AP exams are... We're really not doing much in class to prepare for them. I guess the teachers are starting to think, "Well, by golly, if they haven't learned it already, they're not going to within the next week!" And perhaps they're right. Which is why I've stepped up the studying. As soon as I got home today I actually studied for a whole hour!! Shocking, I know. Call 991 if you need a defibrillator.
In other news, I just want to take this time to say that I love Fred Astaire. Truly, madly, deeply! Except he's old. That's the bad news. Nevertheless, he is an amazing dancer.

Of course, Fred does most of the work in the ballroom style dancing (first video) but lets give credit where credit is due: In the tap routines (second video; this one is my favorite!) Almost all of their routine is parallel (side by side) and Ginger does everything that Fred can do- And in heels!
Amazing.
I love every Fred/Ginger movie ever made and I learned any dancing that I know just from watching them work together.
(And I bought and read "Steps in Time" by Fred Astaire. I highly recommend it!)
Crazy fan girl? You bet.
Yours with a song (and a sore throat),
