duh duh duh dance

Have I mentioned I dance? I do. I dance. Used to dance a whole lot....now not so much. But I'm constantly dancing around like a lunatic so I guess that counts. But really, I'm in a ballet class and I am in love with it. If my ballet class had a mouth I would kiss it.
I've always admired those who are classically trained in ballet, but I don't think anyone can truly appreciate ballet until they try it. It is the most difficult form of dance I have ever encountered, and I've tried almost everything. It is also extremely fulfilling. Ballet is the kind of hard work and dedication that I love being a part of. What I miss most about dancing five days a week is being constantly challenged, and ballet is giving me that challenge and forcing me to become better.
The saddest thing about this class is realizing how much technique I've lost because it's been so long. But that isn't stopping me from having fun or working my butt off.

On another note, I still haven't been on Facebook and I feel awesome. Ya'll can't even hold me down!

It's me.............alex.

Hey ya'll! (and by 'hey ya'll' I mean the two of you who read this) It's me, Alex. Blogging to you from my kitchen counter. Probably should be doing homework but for some reason this seemed super important. It's time to give an update on my first week of my month without my beef Facebook. Well, my used-to-be-beef. We're not so tight anymore.
So I uninstalled FB from my trusted blackberry and that was a HUGE step. I mean, I actually just miss seeing the logo on my little broken screen. But I'm dealing with it.
I'd like to add that I'm doing this hiatus out of spite. Because SOMEONE told me I couldn't. So I'm out to prove not only to them but to myself that I can live without the constant connection to people I haven't actually spoken to since high school, and even then all I did was glare at them from across the room because their shirt was cuter than mine.
The point is, I'm still going strong and only having slight withdrawals. Success! So far.

Stupid F-ing B. (facebook, that is)

Tomorrow will be the first day of my new Facebook hiatus. So I may be blogging more to rant and whatnot. Mostly about dumb stuff that I could walk in the next room and tell someone, but choose not to. And because Anika is the only one who reads this, I could basically just write posts directly to her. In fact! Anika? This one's for you baby :)
