Literally! I ripped my pants!
The strings that bind those wonderful pants gave out. Life can really be funny sometimes. Sometimes when you don’t think it’s the right time or place but who said life will listen to you?
You are probably wondering how on earth I ripped my pants? Well my dear friends and family, being a dancer could mean you are flexible but that does not mean so is your pants!
And the story goes like this:
Every morning I get dressed for the day and as I have ballet class as well as Russian language class, I would wear my ballet tights under my pants, which helps for extra warmth, and change into the rest of my dance attire before ballet class in the change room.
Arriving at the university, I went to the bathroom. Without going into too much detail, after I pulled my pants up it kinda didn’t sit right as it slightly stuck to my tights. Now here is where my hands worked faster than my brain!
What I was meant to do first is to pull it up well first, before I did the next thing. Something I bet all dancers do when changing into skinny jeans…Plie’!!! 😀
As I was still pulling my pants up properly, I decided to plie a little too early and a ripping sound was the result of that! I froze just there and quickly looked down. Relieved I couldn’t find a tear at the crotch, I quickly tried to find where the sound came from…my upper inner right thigh!
For a split second I almost thought I would panic or need to go back home to change, but after I had a look, I just laughed at myself.
So, I wore the pants the whole day and just made sure that when I walked and sat down, it wouldn’t be visible. Guess what my mom said when I told her?
“At least it’s in fashion to have ripped pants.”
Ummm that could be true but I am pretty sure not in your inner thigh! 😀
Eventually I will replace them, but maybe as I can kinda hide it, I will still wear them till I do.
Who knows, maybe it will become a new trend in the ripped pants “industry” and soon you will be able to buy ripped inner thigh skinny jeans. And if you are not willing to pay R500 for a ripped inner thigh Levi skinny jean…just do what I did
…….PLIE’!!!

A short one this week, but I thought I would let you have a laugh at my silliness.
Have a blessed and wonderful Sunday and week ahead everyone!
Talk to you all next week!
To Live is To Dance!
