The Nutcracker!!
Today after work my friend met me and we went to E 31st street for her first ballet class since a few years ago. She was psyched and I was really curious and open-minded to seeing her in action. However, I could not see her because no on-lookers were allowed inside the dance studio. So, I sat outside and called my friend for company for the whole hour and change that I had to wait for her class to be over. She came out a few minutes earlier than others, but we waited for her other friend to come pick us up. He drove me home and I have been here for just about an hour now. I thought about joining the class, especially when one of the instructors asked me if I wanted to, but I don't really think I would because I would not be committed (as least not at first). Why? Because when I dance, I dance freely and go with the flow. Besides singing, writing, and my art work, dancing is one of the ways I best describe how I feel. I think ballet is beautiful, especially because of the forms that the dancers' bodies make, but I just couldn't do it. It is too organized and calm (weird to say). I like to swing my hips, tap my feet to the beat of the music and let the music lead me. I don't know how to describe it, but I just couldn't do it as a class, but just take some of the moves and incorporate it into my dances. Anyhoo...
I am watching "Degrassi" on Noggin and I am just getting so disgusted. This gay guy and his boyfriend just broke up and it was supposed to be "sentimental", but I was laughing because the acting was so bad. I would not consider myself as "homophobic" because I do not know of all that the definition entails, but seeing gay couples bothers me, especially those with adopted children. I mean, I do not believe in same-sex marriages because that's not the way life should be, but I am not going to bash or maim any gay people I see walking down the streets of Manhattan. It's just so sickening to see it. Say whatever you want, but I don't care, really.
Well, I am about to eat, take a shower and get myself ready for tomorrow. I feel so sticky! It's all the running around that I do all day. Hey, maybe I'll do some crunches, too. Anyway, peace out!
