nothing but me
Oct. 23rd, 2003 10:56 pm*sigh* i did absolutely NOTHING all day. it was wonderful!
i got to be as lazy as i wanted to be. did some minimal tidying up around the house. downloaded a bunch of songs. did some online shopping....getting ideas for x-mas presents. be a total bum. gave myself a facial. did some light meditation. lit up some candles. looked at some sexy lingerie. walked around the block and up and down my stairs for me mum. went through some pictures for my scrapbook. read some books. hung out online. thought about going to the bookstore for a lazy read but i got lazy. thought about different hairstyles for my new hairdo. i'm still trying to get used to styling my new do. it's the first time i've had bangs in over a decade and it's taking me a long time to get used to it. then again, my entire head of hair is all layered....and my simple solution to my once straight, even hair is useless. bleh. i need to experiment more with it in order to be satisfied with it for halloween. *sigh*
gosh, i felt so lazy. i've been thinking about going to a hip hop class to get some exercise or pay that class fee at starlite ballroom for a beginning salsa class. i don't think i know that much about how to salsa. basic steps won't help me at all when i try to salsa at a club with a guy who's near pro. i feel like i have 2 left feet and stupid when i don't know the steps and the guy is not patient enough to dance at my level. i guess in salsa, it's all about how macho the guy is when he's leading. whenever i watch, there's a lot of stylization and i can't seem to pick up on that.
when jimmy and i took our beginning ballroom class to starlite, we got a chance to learn a new salsa move...which is kinda hard to feel when dancing. or maybe it's just the way jimmy was leading. he kept making me feel like i need to do quick turns instead of that pause. anyways...u have to see us practice that move in order to understand. *sigh* i need better dance shoes...esp. when he torments me by spinning me around so much that i get dizzy/tired/can't turn fast enough.
hmmm...it's a been a while since i've actually written something for the public eye. everything has been kept within my private domain with a few entries for friends....let's them know i'm still alive and kicking. heheheh.
i definately need to find something to do tomorrow nite. i'm so used to the "let's have dinner and play chess/cards" routine on friday nites that it comes as surprised that we're not gettin' together to hang out. then i'm gettin' that urge to go drinking or at least hang out and have a few glasses of wine if hard liquor is not on the menu of activities for the nite. hmmm...sucks not to have a lot of hard-core party people in the inner circle. i've missed my clubbing days. dancing up a storm, taking a shot or three of liquid fire during dance breaks only to go back and dance some more. can't believe how i used to dance in cages at the clubs....hmmmmmmm...wonder if my ate is up for some partying.
the last time we hung out was at a bar turned dancefloor where she so kindly introduced me to one of her friends (whom she claims is a great bootyshaker). then she challenged us to see who could wear the other one out. all i can say is "damn. the boy can FREAK!" i still blush at the memory of all that bootyshakin'. but i let no man take my tiny title of one of the "best bootyshaker" in our little ghetto group. i was put upon my mettle. i shed some inhibitions and just went for a great time dancing and letting things go. i tried to hang in there as long as he did. man.....i was never so tired doing that as i was that nite. but in the end, i retained my title and got the dubious honor of the best shaker he'd ever shook it with. somehow...i get the feeling he says that to any girl who can keep up. My ate was like "see! i told you she can dance with the best of them!" lol...anything to keep my ate happy! but remind me not to take up any more of those types of challenges. i just need some space on a floor, a few shots of LC, Patron Silver, or something quick and fiery and the music to pump that bass! :-D
on a different topic, my best friend gave me a new anime dvd. heheh...she got me "Noir". i haven't opened it up yet. for some reason, i'm ignoring my anime craving. it's getting expensive to get the dvd series...but i still need to finish up some series when i have more space to put them. it sucks to be a dvd nut....esp. an anime dvd nut. it breaks my piggy bank just collecting series! *cries*
so i'm all rambled out for now. just thinking about reading a few chapters in one of my books reminds me i need to drop off my library books back at the fabulous king library. that library ROCKS. any replies to my incoherent babblings will be greatly appreciated (since i'm trying to slowly re-insert myself back into a social life in all shapes and forms). i'll even go so far as to offer my specialty! lots of HUGS!!!!!! *big cheesy grin*
