1. I'm down with a nasty viral URTI, diarrhoea, and my stitches broke after kara.
2. My tank's hood FELL APART. From a box, into 4 planes of wood. Had to do emergency surgery on it, and this time I used steel L-brackets to hold it all up - shoule be bullet-proof now!
Anyway, about The Dance Floor. OMG, OMG, OMFFFFFG. If any of you watched the first couple, the so-called "Spider", you will want to remember how I once bitched at length about this woman in the salsa class who was THE absolutely-
worst dancer I've ever danced with. And guess what??
Yep, you've guessed right, that's the
very same woman that I danced with, and tried to lead me, and couldn't do proper spins for nuts, and had the most awful cuban hip movements ever. OMFG. You know, I have TOTAL disrespect for the judges now, how can that piece of festering crap even get through?!?!?? And don't even begin to be impressed by their "acrobatics" - all were executed wrongly, and I say that with absolute confidence. Aerials should - and can - never be only about brute strength, it's the technique. About musicality .. well, let's not go into that.
And that standard of Rock n'Roll .. oh come on. Let me dish out some suggestions, go to the Carriage Bar, NTUC club, Raffles town club, or ANY dance club across the island, you could close your eyes, grope, and land yourself a MUCH better dancer than those 2 abysmal idiots.
Those 2 are a total disgrace to dancesport, that's all I can say.
Of course, the Lindy Hop sucked. You just can't do the Lindy without getting your basics right - Yx and I went through 5 f*ing years of basic classes before we "graduated" from it - and expect to dance it even decently. For choreographed dances like the Rhumba etc, maybe. But not the Lindy. Which is a point seen even in So You Think You Can Dance, when one of the finalist pairs totally butchered the dance. Don't get me wrong, that group was GOOD when they did what they usually do (salsa), I just feel a lot stronger for a dance that means much more to me.
ok, done with tonight's healthy dose of bitching, although I STRONGLY think that the aforementioned couple should be sent home immediately with brutal comments.
Now for a hot soak in the bath, some soup, and more diabetes insipidus.
