Laugh when you can,
Apologize when you should,
And let go of what you can't change.

Dance

Last summer I took dance classes at a studio in Bethesda. Once school started again, it was hard for me to keep up with it and I stopped. As most of you know, my first love in life was dance and I still miss it when I'm not taking class.

Tonight I went back to class for the first time since August. The class kicked my butt. I don't think non-dancers understand how incredibly in shape dancers are. There were push-ups and sit-ups involved, as well as an incredible level of endurance. I'm not sure I'll be able to move my arms or even walk tomorrow but I'm proud to say I made it through the entire class (a little under 2 hours). Although I was able to keep up and can still follow the choreography, my technique is lacking big-time. It was wonderful to be back again though. I'm planning to go back for more torture next week. :)
