It is great to see you again!!!

How was your week everyone?

I, unfortunately, failed to make state cut on Tuesday... I got exactly same time on Tuesday as last time which made me pretty depressed... But yesterday, which is Saturday for me, I cut my time a lot about 0.8 seconds and I am now 0.6 seconds off from the state cut. This Saturday, I have a prep league, which is the last chance I can try out for the state cut. I think this time I can really make it because I can get a lot of rest on Friday and also am going to do taper for whole week. Still, I need some cheers from you so please wish me to make state cut!

This book about ballet was very different from the former books because it was not about any artist. But I think it was still very interesting. Also, whether you noticed or not, as soon as we finish this book, we finish exactly half of Smart About series. Already.

I checked your assignments about Picasso and I was very happy and satisfied about most of your works. They, as I emphasized, had a lot of specific and proper reasons supporting your ideas. I was so happy about your improvement. Let's try to keep this great quality on this week's assignment as well!!!

Enjoy your assignment for this week, and show me how well and more you can do!!!

See you next week!
