So you think you can dance...

That is the title of a show equivalent to American Idolor X-factor. In any case it's probably fun because people can do amazing things or just end up bumping in the ground accidentally.
Speaking of dance, I wa slucky last thursday as I went to salsa class (level 2). And nope, I didn't do elvel 1. I figured I wanted to skip the sweaty awkward and limp hands guys in level 1, and go straight to the guys who supposedly know the basic steps in level 2...I can be mean sometimes, but it is necessary too enjoy an hour of dance, to actually dance. It went well, my partner (giant large shoulder German whose name I cannot remember) did ballroom dancing and knew how to lead...relief! We actually danced on music, not thinking 1234567 for an hour!

The nextevening it was party time with the whole Moulin Rouge with the party people at Unilever. There was even a casino with real chips but no money. At least I got to learn how to play - loose at roulette. Blackjack was fun though and my host was a real master at it. I ended up waitressing for the blackjack banker...ugh.

Oufit? hmmm not very saucy. A few women pulled the mesh stockings and black underwear style. There was one pettycoat, a couple of cabaret dancers with the baton and nice hat. And many evening gowns with a twist. I only bumped into one very cute guy while looking for the seating map.And I kept looking for him the whole evening...besides, it gave me some excuse to observe the crowd. Those people could dance, and drink. I love the lighting as it soothed the eyes with its pink and purple glares.I had 4 glasses of wine on top of the initial half shot of vodka (my first ever). It was very difficult to walk but fortunately I had my killer shoes on....yes the ones that potentially kill me.

The rest of the weekend went by without any hitch, except some feminine problems that was a bit embarassing because I was not prepared and kept having nightmares about staining...ugh....sad! A well deserved break from stress.


Did you know that one chat up line is: 'what book have you read recently?' I could not believe it myself because I actually fell for it naively when I first moved in this country! Mind you, I like Mr right to be able to read and enjoy books I like....still....schoking!
