Dance is no east art. But what I don't think people understand about it is that it is a lot harder than you. You risk injury, there's long rehearsals, lots of practice at home, and so much more. But is you do dance you might understand these 20 things, and you might even find them to be very "En Pointe".

1. When you tell people you dance and they ask if you can do a "spin."

Of course I can "spin," but it's actually called a pirouette.

2. The annoying fact that you'll always be more flexible on one side than the other.

Don't ask me to do a right split or anything involving lifting my right leg...but I can definitely show you on the left.

3. People are always complimenting your buns.

Ballet buns are pretty much the only hair style I know how to do.

4. Speaking of buns people are always asking you to do their buns for them.

I'm majoring in Psychology, not hair styling.

5. When you hear a song you used to dance to, you feel the need to tell everyone that you used to have a dance to the song.

It's pretty much every other song that plays on the radio, so car rides with dancers can be kind of annoying.

6. When you hear a song you used to dance to, you automatically start dancing, no matter where you are.

I can be in the middle of the grocery store and start tap dancing.

7. That look you get when you go out in stage make up.

I know I looked like a circus clown but I promise I just left a dance competition.

8. You have tons of weird costumes that you just can't let go of packed away.

Tell me again why I need a bird costume?

9. All your tights have holes and runs in them.

Seriously, what dancer has nice tights?

10. You have every style shoe in every color possible.

Because how could you wear nude jazz shoes with an all black costume?

11. You find bobby pins EVERYWHERE!

And when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere. From the bathroom shower to the car floor, and even in your textbooks-- yes your textbooks.

12. You wear so much glitter that you end up looking like the tin man on stage.

But really though.

13. You have more dance picture around your house than you do normal pictures.

Because what guest wants to see your school pictures when they can see you doing a backbend?

14. Your friends don't even try to make plans with you because they know you can't go anyway.

"Sorry I can't I have dance."

15. You have bruises and burns all over your body.

Who would have thought dance was so rough?

16. You have completely ruined your parents' floors with your tap shoes.

Uhhh sorry, I needed to practice my new time step.

17. And 5,6,7,8.

Need I say more...

18. The annoying fact that you will almost always do a combo perfect when your teacher isn't looking and then completely mess it up the second they look at you.

Wait let me try it again.

19. "Now reverse it" are the second worst things you can hear.

How about no.

And my personal favorite...

20. "One more time," NEVER means one more time.

It actually means about 15 more times before you get told "one more time" AGAIN.
