Pointe is when a ballerina is dancing on the tips of her toes. Pointe is usually started when young ballet students are about 12 or 13. You need to have strong ankles, and good technique to be able to go on pointe.

It IS a sport, it IS just as hard as any other sport, and it WILL make you sweat, cry, and bleed. But if you really love it, like I do, you don't care about any of that. You care about the awesome people you meet, the amazing audiences, and the thrilling performances.
Being drunk; to the extent that you are too drunk to care and will therefore have a good time, but sober enough to be aware of what is going on at the time, and remember the night the following morning.
