Dancing!!!!!

I had my firstest belly dancing lesson this evening (it's a good price for college students, so I can just afford it) and it was FUN!!! Wow! It was hard though...gotta practice moving my ribs while keeping my hips still. They want to do everything together. But with some practice I think I'll do all right, and there were others that were far worse than me in the class, which of course made me feel better. I really liked the instructor too...Yay for Mondays!!!

On the sewing front.....well, I've been lazy. Terribly lazy. I've been drawing these past couple days and it seems my giddy brain won't do both. Arg. I suppose I should just MAKE myself sew, but my sketchbook's staring at me, pleading to be filled. Come on self! Bristol is next weekend!!!!!

It's that ciseaux again

Hey Gwendolyn...some of my friends tried belly dancing, and they found it to be a great workout-it sounds tricksy. And they're Persian too.
4 days!!!

It IS a good workout...and it is a bit tricksy, but no more so than karate (my only other workout experience). But better than that, it's really really fun. You should try it too!

Yeah, I'd like to. My friend has a video sort of kit that she used. I'd have to get her to learn with me.
