So, dancing is fun. I asked Mike to give me more classes. I'm really looking forward to that, if it works out in my favor. I love teaching. We'll see what happens. I feel like I am so much better than I was. I finally feel like my dancing and leading is improving.
I'm really tired of drama, like people bitching to Mike if things don't go their way, or if they aren't in certain routines. I'm also annoyed with people who try to teach people how to do things in intermediate to advanced Lindy who really aren't qualified to do so. I don't like that people don't see that they aren't as great as they think they are. People need to deflate their egos and accept the fact that anyone can learn from the instructors there. Also, some people try way too hard to get in the spotlight; to try to be the best in Mike's eye. And some people think they are ready for advanced moves and ideas and lifts, etc. when they really aren't. There is nothing wrong with needing more dance time, but some people think they are untouchable. I'm waiting for something to come along and knock these people off their fucking clouds.
Accept the fact that you make mistakes, learn from them, and grow up.
There is way to much follower competition in troupe. Why can't they be like me, Z, RC, and Matt (who has no nickname)? Friends, who know where they stand and recognize their pros and cons?
Whatever. People will be people. I'm happy with what I do and I know what I need to work on. That's all that matters to me, as far my dancing goes.
Peace
