I'm starting up dancing lessons again if anyone's interested. I do singles and couples, in groups or by themselves. Just let me know which group you're in and what kind of dancing you'd like to learn and I'll see what I can do for you.
Spring break is over, though it doesn't feel like it was spring in the first place. It's just been cold. I should have gone to cancun or something. That would have been better than sticking around here. Someone needs to tell the weather to get with it already, it's April. I guess we should be grateful that it means that the school year is almost over.
Any suggestions on what to do with my summer?

The holidays are over. I'm a bit sad. Not entirely sad, shit's always hectic during Christmas. Having Christmas with Dean's family was fun though. They showed me so many baby pictures. I saw things that no one should probably ever see, but I was really amused. I think they liked me, though you can never tell. Families always treat a person nice, and then turn around and tell someone how much they don't like them behind their back. Well if they don't actually like a person that is. Or maybe that's just my family.
School is back in session though, I'm glad to be back at work. We're going to be putting on a art show at the school. Some of the kids are really really talented, I'm often in awe of them. It's going to be all sorts of things. Paintings, sculptures, photos, you name it. It'll give me a project to work on and keep myself occupied. Keeps all the kids occupied too.
I'm definitely done with winter though. Summer can hurry the hell on up. Tired of being freezing all the time. |

Is it time for winter break yet? Just a couple more days. That's all. Just the rest of this week, and then some of the next week and I'll be done. I'm beyond ecstatic to have a break. This past semester has felt like it goes on forever and forever. Like it was the longest semester that I've ever been a part of. But yeah, I'm excited. Especially for these past couple of days, because honestly, we've all gotten our finals over with and generally every day in my class has been like a party. I keep bringing cookies and cakes and my room is all decorated for Christmas.
I really hope it snows. Maybe on Christmas day, just for a tiny bit. Not enough for people to get stuck in or anything, but just to be nice. Generally I'm not this excited about the holidays but I'm in a good mood. I officially got rid of my old apartment a couple of days ago. It's kind of liberating and scary. But yeah, I'm in a good mood, and we're about to go on vacation and seriously, just to sleep in? I am all over that like a fat kid on chocolate cake.
I want some fucking egg nog. With rum. Lots of rum.
Hells yeah. |

It's almost time for Thanksgiving Break! Okay so it's only four days, but that's besides the point. I'm excited any time there's a long weekend, sue me. The kids have been making photo collages. They've been taking pictures, old pictures, new pictures and then cutting them up into different shapes. Some of them are really good. I forget sometimes that these kids have what it takes to be really good artists. I mean, I know I'm just a dancer, and I don't actually know a lot about art. I guess I just like what I see. There's no shame in that, is there?
I've had the most awful pain in my neck for days now. I think I must have pulled something during one of my lessons. Either that or I slept on it wrong. I should stop complaining though. I think I complain on every one of these posts. Ah well.
If anyone wants to invite me to Thanksgiving dinner, that would be appreciated since I don't have anywhere to go. And I can eat a whole lot. I mean don't let that stop you from inviting me over. I won't eat everything that you make. I know how to share. Mostly. |

Is it wrong to be ready for Thanksgiving break already? I think it's because I keep seeing all this fall stuff, it just really makes me hungry. Hungry in the way where you want turkey, and stuffing and all of that stuff. Plus there's all that good pumpkin stuff, like lattes and pie and muffins and other gorgeous things.
Really I just want to take a week off so that I can eat a bunch of stuff. I'll have to settle for Halloween and eating a ton of candy to hold myself up until Thanksgiving dinner.
In other news, dancing lessons are going well. I hope everyone is having fun with them. As always, if anyone actually wants to take lessons with me, I'd be happy to. Single lessons or couple lessons, I'm pretty much open for anything. I'm very certified, I used to be a dancer myself. Broadway as a matter of fact. Some part of me wishes that I could direct, because I would put on a show at the theater. Renovate the whole thing and put on lots of shows. That would be lovely. |

School's about to start up again. I had such a great vacation, but it's always over much too soon. And it doesn't look like we've really missed anything. That's almost refreshing to know that life hasn't changed all that much.
As much as I like my life, and as much as I love teaching, I miss dancing. I could teach dance, I guess. Maybe I should do that so that I don't have this strong urge to just go on Broadway. That's what I miss. I miss all the singing and dancing and two shows a night. Not that I want to go anywhere, but I miss all the choreography. I'm not quite sure what's brought all this on, maybe it's just that I'm getting so .. sluggish, and out of shape and I don't want to be. I need to get back in shape, if only for myself.
Starting tomorrow I'll go back to the gym and get started training again. If anyone actually wants to know how to dance, and wants to be taught, let me know. Maybe I'll start off with one kind of dancing. Salsa, tango, waltz, ballroom, etc. If there's something specific you want to learn, let me know that too. I'll have to find some space, but that should be pretty easy.
This makes me feel quite happy. |

I guess you can count me in the I Hate Valentine's Day category. It's a waste of stuff. And I look completely awful in anything red or pink. It clashes with my hair and makes me look like a damn lobster. I've rather had it up to here with men. Though I did get some cute candy from some of my students. But they're all high schoolers and underage and I'm not that kind of gal.
Suppose I'll be one of those going to.. well some place to get drunk. I don't see the purpose of sitting at home and watching crap on television when all the surly people are out looking to get drunk and laid. Might as well be one of those few.

Okay so I definitely have a secret admirer thing. I don't think I can eat all these cookies by myself, even if they're really good.
But I'm not sure it's one of the kids, because how could one of the kids get my address or even know how to send me cookies. Hm. |

I think we need another three day weekend.
This last one went by way too fast.
I'm feeling listless. I hate to be cliche and say I want to settle down. That's not quite it. But I'm just.. bored I guess? Having sex all the time and all the flirting is fun and everything, I love it. But it's the same thing. Time after time. I have fun. It's nothing new. Nothing exciting or challenging. I don't want someone to sweep me off my feet with love, I guess but sweeping me off my feet in other ways wouldn't be so bad.
I don't know what I want anymore.
I just wish I knew. |

I am definitely ready for winter vacation. It just seems like there is too much time in between vacations. Though I guess I shouldn't complain because we get three months of vacation during the summer. But I don't mind winter break actually. I really love this time of year, even though it's cold. I went to the Christmas tree lighting tonight, it was really nice. And tomorrow is ice skating! I really love ice skating, it kind of reminds me of being a dancer. Just.. on ice. I took a lot of lessons when I was younger. But it's definitely one of my favorite things to do. I always pretended to be in the Olympics as a skater when I was younger.
Go figure.
So your favorite part about this time of year? Not just Christmas, but in general. Oh and I have to figure out what to ask the Christmakwanzakah fairy for this year. There's only a couple of days left to shop.
Anyone want to go with? |
