Yarg

We learned the statue on Wednesday night, which consisted of Lisa telling us how to put what where, and then holding us and moving us into position. Felt rather alien and very much as if I'd fall right off if she wasn't holding me!
So Thursday night I needed to try for myself and was delighted to find out that I could do it unaided! Quite messy getting up there but I don't think I hold it too badly once I'm there. Very chuffed!

Today I finally got my lounge much tidier thanks to the wonderful Kristie, and moved my pole more to the centre (cue big stress about finding joists and excess extension on the pole, but ok in the end).

To be honest tonight's practise was disappointing. I feel like I can do a few moves, but I can't string them together and can't dance, and certainly can't look sexy. I don't like being negative so I'm going to try not to dwell on it, but I really wish I could improvise/ freestyle.

Harumph!

Have a suitably silly clip:




Random quiz:

What pole move are you? I'm a Butterfly.
Fun and graceful, you are naturally the center of attention. Certain to shine in any crowd, you enjoy socializing and love to be with all your friends. You feel life is meant to be enjoyed - and that's exactly what you do!
Web-to-real life translations:

fun and graceful = Funny yet clumsy
naturally the center = never the centre
shine in any crowd = avoid any crowd
enjoy socialising = are a recluse

*beats self round head with stick* I'm gonna go to bed and wake up happier. Fact!

Night night
