Sorta owww
Oh man, went to my first studio bellydance class of the season last night and it was FANTASTIC.
To review: last semester I took level 2A because level 1B was not available (1B was suggested to me by my teacher). It was a fantastic experience that kicked my butt pretty much every week. 2A is basically all the basic moves you learn in 1B plus playing finger cymbals at the same time.
This semester, they are offering 1B and I wasn’t sure if I should step back and take it or move forward with my class into 2B. So I gave 1B a shot last night, and it was heavenly. I got to focus—really focus—on all the basic moves. Compared to last semester, my posture and arm carriage has improved, but a lot of stuff is still not solid. Mainly, my left side doesn’t want to do things as nicely as the right, especially hip lifts and drops. A step behind, and not as sharp. I’m really excited to get all my basics well-developed so that I have a strong foundation to layer on all the pretty extras (finger cymbals, veils, SHIMMIES!). It was a good choice.
But today my muscles are rather sore, no doubt. Sides, shoulders, and back. But in a way, that feels good.

In other news, I’m hankering for a new video console. I’ve got an Xbox and a GameCube, but oh man do the Xbox360 and Wii look oh-so-shiny. I’m leaning hard towards the Wii, but it’s quite the process trying to get your hands on one . . .

Sore muscles are your bodies way of telling you that you did a good job. ooo video game consoles well can't vouch for any of the new ones as I haven't played them. The Wii looks really fun with the cool unique remote control. My cousin looked like he was having fun playing halo3 and assains creed on the xbox over chrismas. I would suggest that you look at the games for both and see which one has more games for you and get that one. You shouldn't have any problem getting a Wii come Febuary, they should be all restocked.
