The art of bboy'n is something I have come to appreciate. Lately my drive to push bboy or hip-hop dancin events has been at its high level again. KRS-One's song "Hip-Hop Lives" rhymes -"Hip means to knowIt's a form of intelligenceTo be hip is to be up-date and relevant Hop is a form of movement You can't just observe a hopYou got to hop up and do it Hip and Hop is more than music Hip is the knowledge Hop is the movement Hip and Hop is intelligent movement Or relevant movement." Love this track. So when it comes to bboy'n this is so true, you gotta get up and do it. There is an some intelligence in hurting after trying to learn windmills or dancing for 3 hours and youre just done tired. Bboy'n is tough! Really, there is so much technique and muscle to it! You have to have a good respiratory for it also! Some of these 1 on 1's I watch that go 7 rounds are insanneee. I think everyone should take time and watch a bboy to just appreciate the art!

Danced Til I (Almost) Died
Saturday night I pretty much danced myself to almost passing out. I have this stomach issue called "Acid Reflux", if I don't take my medicine then my stomach kills me and sometimes if I do too much sport or dancing, I will eventually throw up. It's become a big problem of late.
Anyways went to Dance Energy where AZCleanParties was rockin out. And I knew I would be so sweaty in that place because its a hotbox! Well I hit my 2nd circle battling my friend Josh, and that was it! I ran outside and then collapsed, I can remember little things here and there, like Clint and Shanna helping keep me awake, putting me in a truck, and laying in my bed last night. Kinda crazy I know because most people pass out from drinking too much, which I have NEVER drank, so if that was a glimpse into that I WILL NEVER DRINK A DROP OF ALCOHOL!
But all in all, I love dancing and the expression and passion it allows me to communicate with others. I have a lot to do with dancing and others need to be inspired because of what I do. In hopes that I will inspire them to share whatever talent they may have! Here's to another week! :)

FML - Try Again
What does this picture represent? Well I miss good cartoons, thats one thing, but thats not what I'm saying here.
That Sam guy is trying to hit the target and he just can't. He tries, and tries, and tries but hasn't hit it yet! Welcome to my dating life in Arizona. And today the funniest thing happened.
Saturday night went and met my friend Josh at Cadillac Ranch and it stunk. So we went over to Toby Keith's Bar and Grill in Mesa to meet up with a friend. While I was there I danced with a girl that ended working at Univ. of Phoenix. We actually exchanged names so we could IM each other back and forth at work. So I get into work Wednesday and we start getting to know each other. We talk again today and I end up asking her out for lunch. She says we can meet up next week to go get lunch, well 10 minutes after that she says,"I did tell you that I'm married, so if you're fine with that we can still do lunch." I was like that information would have been useful at Toby's, yesterday, and when YOU said that you would go to lunch with me. Hahaa just my luck right?!
Well not planning on dating married women, so I am single ladies. But I just have been shooting and missing when it comes to dates out here. My last "official" date was back in July/August, and I've asked girls out but they come up with some excuse and/or don't even try to reschedule so it kind of sucks. I get down sometimes on that fact, but then again I'm busy with work and school and other projects that someone will come along. Shoot til you hit the target!!!!

Rainy Tuesday
January has gone by very quickly! There are things to change now and this rain makes me feel like tomorrow is a new day to turn things right. Must say that my motivation and my thoughts have not been where they need to be. They've not followed the person I've been or wanted to start off with for 2010! My independence from others has started to become a greater gap. I don't care to date because there is no one there to feel the same way and what is another heartbreak going to get me. So I want to concentrate on work, school, and my business ideas. Maybe my feelings will change somewhere this week or next. Who knows! I try to be positive individual!
One area I seek to work on is not letting my natural man take over my thoughts. Sometimes I think to much with certain areas. Surrounding myself in virtue will build this confidence. Every man or woman has a journey through something that affects them for the bad, where do they find the will to overcome. I know the steps, I know what works, but sometimes why don't I do it? All I can live is for today and work tomorrow to be - that much better!
Thank you Rain!

Crazy Heart along with a Crazy Weekend
Anyways, my movie going of late has been non-existent meaning my last movie was day before Thanksgiving in London watching "This Is It". So there are a few movies that have come that I've wanted to see, but today since it was raining and I was in contemplative mood and needed some kind of mind relaxer, I went to see "Crazy Heart." This is a movie about a 57-yr old washed up country artist who finds himself again through meeting a woman with a 4year old son in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He goes from town to town on these cafe or bowling alley gigs. He is known as "Bad Blake." Throughout the whole movie he is this chain-smoking, alcoholic who is slowly running his life into the ground. He has no new music material and always denies the person he taught music to, "Tommy Swift" because he's a big shot in the business.
The whole concept which I got from the movie, is don't put off tomorrow what you can, and maybe should do today! I would say exactly how the movie ends but I won't tell you because its good. Not that its like some amazing ending but I just love that its about true country musician. I've always wanted to live life on the road and listen to old country, rock, blues music. I've wanted to live out an Eagles song, maybe travel to Winslow, Arizona like it says in "Take It Easy." Maybe other people are similar to me and maybe they aren't. I believe everyone can gain something from this movie and its message.
Shake Off The Weekend Dust
I think I'm going to head to Tempe Marketplace and catch a movie and write down some things I need to get done! I need to be away from this house and out where I can shake off this dust I attracted this weekend!
