A Gigantic Mess
- Okay, so most importantly: canvas ballet slippers and my Russian Pointes. Then there are some broken pointes and a sequined one from a performance that I just keep because they're pretty. Then there's a Thera-band and a rubber ball for tight muscles. A bunch of hair supplies at the bottom plus many tubes of ChapStik, and that's about it.

Not too much
- I don't usually need to keep that much because at my dance studio they have water and extra leotards if we need them. But I keep black/tan/white jazz shoes, a pair of pink ballet slippers, a pair of jazz sneakers, a sweatshirt, Gatorade, hair brush, hair bands, Band-Aids, light pink lipstick and a blush.

So much stuff that I couldn't finish!
- First of all, I have a lot, and I mean A LOT of stuff in my dance bag. My friends think I'm weird because I have so much junk in my bag, but I need it all! The basic stuff I have in my bag would be 3 leotards (one tanktop shape, one 3/4 sleeve, and one open back shape), my 10 pairs of tights which are black, white, pink, and tan. Some of the tights are worn, and some are new that are just extra if anyone needs, or if mine rip. Than, I also carry my 2 pairs of jazz shoes, my 2 pairs of pointe shoes, my 2 ballet shoes, and my foot-undeez. Plus my ballet sweater, a sweatshirt, my moodeez shorts, blue bootie shorts, and a leotard top. I also carry clear nail polish to stop runs in tights or any chipped nails, as well as to stop ribbons from running. I have advil liqui-gels that I occasionally crush on my sore feet, to relieve the pain. I also keep my plastic eco-friendly waterbottle, and 2 extra plastic waterbottles too. I have a bobby-pin tin filled with bobby pins, snap clips, and hair nets.

Not that much
- I usually carry all of my dance shoes (flat and heeled tap shoes, nude and black jazz shoes, ballet soft shoes, my Grishko Elite pointes, my meter and diabetes supplies, since I am a diabetic. Water bottles and first-aid supplies are also in my bag. I keep my cell phone, books to read before class and my iPod for additional entertainment. I also have womanly supplies, deodorant, and a yummy smelling body spray. I keep extra leotards and tights, along with leg warmers and lightweight sweaters and shrugs. I often feel like I am forgetting things but I'm usually very well prepared.
