I'm BAAAAAACK !!!!!

That's right! Guess who's back in the mutha f*ck'n house...with a big d' fo ya mutha f*ck'n mouth!...lol. (ewww...that was kinda bad huh?..lol)

Yup that's right..I'm back in the game! Since my last post, I've been visiting the gym, working up a sweat, burning calories, and working on getting back in shape. It's crazy how good my body feels after working out at the gym. Though we all experience the whole tiredness that comes when you force your body to exude extra energy, I feel so ENERGIZED and AMPED when I've completed a good workout!

*public service announcement * THE GYM IS NOT Aries Lounge (for my NC folk) or the Air Lounge (for my Cali folk)...the gym is just that...the gym! I swear to God, sometimes I walk into to the gym and forget where I am. Blast the music a little louder, and you'd think you were at the club. Girls walking around with make-up on, dudes tryna holla left and right. It's ridic! Please please please...DO NOT try to talk to me while I'm crunched over trying to do these annoying ab exercises. And if you see me sweating up a storm, breathing hella heavy, again, don't try to talk to me because I'm probably in "the zone" and shyt... I prolly stink.

Anyway, so all this work in the gym has given me the energy that I've been missing in my life. I feel good, and by the summer, I'll look GREAT!

Now to the real subject at hand....DANCE CLASS #2! Like I said above....I'm BAAAACK B*THCES! You woulda thought I was a different person from the one writing the last posting. You couldn't tell me NOTHIN on Monday....I was tight!...lol. So I got to class early...woo hoo! I changed into my dance clothes with time to spare before it was time for me to hit the floor. Apparently the beginners hip hop class was immediately before mine, so I was able to catch a glimpse. And boy oh boy am I happy I didn't sign up for THAT class. I could just see it now....me sitting there irritated by all the two left footed people dancing around me. Not a good look.

So my class began promptly at 7:00pm. We stretched and went through a whole warm up routine. Parts of my body ached...but I was fine with that. This was gonna be a better dancing experience dangit! I did a quick scan of the room and noticed that I was not the only one not wearing those doggone jazz hip hop dance shoes. *sigh of relief*. I really tried to find some...granted I only began my search the day before the 2nd class...and I couldn't find any that were reasonably priced. Plus, who wants to spend 65 of their hard earned dollars on shoes that are ugly as hell, and won't get worn again after the class is over. Not I! And with that said....I didn't! The only thing wrong this time around was that...unlike the other 2 females who wore regular sneakers, mine had the never to squeak the entire time. Now I'd be damn! Just when I thought I was clear of all embarrassment...

The new chorography was to Ciara's "Promise". Now, if you don't know what song this is...its the one that say somethin' like "come enjoy the life, baby take your time, I just wanna find is, you, you." (yeah, I had to google the lyrics, cuz ya'll know I don't know the words to NOTHIN) Anyway, so the song is slow, but the dance has a cross between slow and fast tempo moves. Kinda cool too. The dance has a lot of sex appeal, and the moves are kind of seductive, so you know I was alllll over it. Anyway, to make a long posting short....lets just say I had a GREAT time! You couldn't tell me a damn thing on the dance floor. We'll be building on this routine in our future classes, so I'm definitely eager to see what the instructor has in store. Until next week folks...

Yay! to having a good 2nd dance class experience

Thats what I used to hate about 24 Hour fitness at Hilltop...people acting like it's Club 24?

Um, excuse me miss? Why are you on the treadmill with earrings on? And that sweat is making your mascara run. And sir, lifting weights and talking on the phone doesn't go togther. Work out or get out...this is not the mall. lol

LMAO...fa real! Craziness! I don't understand why people do it. But hey, I guess you gotta catch um' somewhere.

some salsa dance instructors use the "1,2 . . ." counting method when they teach.

I wouldn't prefer that. Who wants to count and/or add while they're dancing?

Just DANCE, right?

Dance, girl.

FIERCE, FIERCE.

Hey girl. Glad to hear that you are back in your groove and still a mess. I was laughing the whole time. I have also gotten my mojo back. Ive been working out for two weeks now (haha) and I agree with you, its feels great. I gotta look c-yute for those Canadian men! Ive taken my workouts outside though. I think the gym atmosphere doesnt motivate me at all, although I have to admit that the scenery is quite entertaining. The only downfall to working out around nature is the wild animals. Why did I have a stand off with a coyote last night!!! That damn 'yote forced me to take a different route home, which meant I had to run I dont know how many miles home because it was getting dark. lol!! So there I was, a dark girl, in dark clothing, hauling ass in the dark!
Love ya!
