Dancing

New hobbie... Ballroom dancing. Decided that I will go also on wednesday (since the teacher said it's okay) just to watch. Will get a practice shoe first, but I'm aiming for this really lovely Latin Ballroom Dancing shoes. :P

Learned Tengo today. Got commented by the teacher as "fast learner" and got questioned more than once with, "Are you sure you never learned this before?" And then someone commented on possible future competition for amatures... Got interested...

When I am dancing, I can't stop smiling. It doesn't matter what people say to me, or that I'm almost always dancing with very very old guys with fishy hands (:P) I'm having so much fun that I really don't care. I probably smile more than the whole class added together and are so hyper that the teacher actually said, "you mind as well as buy two pair of shoes..."

Next course: Latin Dance.

I think I like the "stop+curve" feeling for tengo already... There's something very, hum, subtle about it. Although the music we danced to wasn't what I thought to be best (Taiwanese old tengo pretend to be music), yet, you can feel this bitter passion even with just the basic steps. Makes me think of the song Roxxane from Moulin Rouge, or the tengo scene with "Don't Cry For Me Argentina"... Make me also interested in Argentina...

Mexicans in coming... :P There's free Salsa lessons Friday night at Salsa Cubana in Taichung, will head there this Friday to check it out. :P
