ok so monday was the start of my jazz dance class for gym. which i figured hey tap was easy maybe this wont be so bad.
we go to the dance room and the prof. is like no shoes allowed, come sit in a circle with notebook and pen. and we're just like ok?.
and she fucking hands out a syllabus and readings. like um.. hello this is a gym class. it's worth .5 credits.
she told us "most people take this class b/c they thnk its just a dance class an easy gym class. well let me tell you right now, its not it's an academic class. You will have to work" so we go about reading this syllabus and we have a fucking paper to write and an oral presentation. like wtf. then she made us go around the circle and tell about our jazz experience if any and when we hear the word jazz what we think of. when it came time for me i just said i used to take ballet tap and jazz dance classes for 8 years, and well i was in the jazz band at my school. which she really seemed to like. and then i said when i hear jazz i think of Swing, Ragtime, and big band such as the glan miller type music, etc. which i do like. idk she seemed to like my answer.
ok now yesterday we were dancing but we were doing african dance. first of all we had to do it barefoot, and idk how clean that floor is. second omg this lady needs to wear a bra it was gross and omg she sweats alot. like i thought i was bad omg shes 10x worse. just gross. oh and she got like so excited kinda when a black girl showed up like she went over to her and talked to her with the accent like "yo homegirl how u doin' and im being serious i heard it. but to us so talks normal. that girls going to be the favorite i know and it's only b/c they are both black.
so in this dance we did like a scene kinda. we had animals, villagers, the elements, and hunters. i wasone of the hunters lol. idk it was fun at times but i dont feel like we stretched enough kinda. my legs were killing me and so were my arms. but that's also b/c i haven't done anything really since Marching band or badminton. i felt so weak. my legs used to be like so strong and my arms at least had some muscle, now i got nothing. and idk for next class we have to look up stuff on the slaves and their dances. and we have to be prepared to dance like we are chained and shackled on the slave boats to america.
still im sorry i didn't sign up for another history class. just teach us to do jazz routines, thats all i want.
um... what else. halloween sucked b/c i had school and then work for 6ish hours. so yeah i didn't get to do anything.
i dont really know what else to write um.. im done disecting the pig in bio now i have a test on the pig on weds and im so not ready for it, b/c yesterday the prof did alot of the work for us i feel, like he was the one who cut out the lung and heart, and was showing us the diff parts. im just glad its overwith. it smelled so bad and it was just gross.
ugh to work from 9-4 tomorrow. and then the MIP meeting. its so dumb. Make It Personal, i got it be nice to customers lol.thank god my manager only makes it like an hour instead of the 2 hours it should be. and i just wish it was at a better time. either it was at 2pm two days this week tomorrow at 5:30 or sat morning. i was working every time except for tomorrow. and u can't go while ur scheduled to work.
also im going to the movies tomorrow. i haven't gone to the movies in forever. even tho it's kinda like guys night plus me lol. but i wanna see the movie so im going. we're going to see American Gangster. i hope its as good as it looks
