My Blue Heaven

Weekend update

I. Am. So. Sore. At least my back muscles are. I dunno what was different about the Fusion Funk class I did on saturday, but damn my muscles got quite a workout. I suppose it was a VERY energetic class… which I really enjoyed. I was absolutely dripping sweat by the end. Not a good look coz my khaki cargos change colour when wet.. so I had these huge, very obvious darkened sweat patches around the butt/legs… ewww. I need more discrete cargos. Perhaps next time I’ll go with black.

Anyways, I had a good weekend. Relaxing and fun. Also went to Salsa class again on Friday night, which was great! I’m really loving salsa atm… I’m gonna stick with it for a while, make sure I go every week, so I can progress and get that solid basic foundation. I think next Fri I’ll move up to level 3. 🙂

*sigh* I love dancing. There actually is not much else in the world that makes me as happy as dancing does. I am always on such a high after a dance class. There’s nothing quite like it. I may not be an awesome dancer, and I know I’d never “make it” as a dancer… but I still love it.. plus its great exercise too. I was pondering about it the other day… why I like it so much. I think its the dual combination of movement/physical expression/exercise… and music. Coz I love music.. and listening to music. And I also love exercise.. I love the feeling of pushing yourself physically, and of expressing yourself physically through movement… the intensity of dance. And then combine those two together… its a winning combination! 🙂 And its natural.. listening to upbeat music naturally makes you want to move.

Ok I’ll stop ranting about dance. Methinks I’ve exhausted the topic for now. 😛

Ooh yesterday I made myself the yummiest lunch! I bought some tortilla bread, in which I wrapped up some baby cos lettuce, tomatoes, grated cheddar cheese, marinated tomato & basil chicken strips with this yummy tomato & roasted onion sauce/dressing. Soooooo nice. I’d been craving a wrap for ages… and decided to go make my own coz I didn’t like what they put in the pre-made ones – they always use too much cream based sauces. Anyway, I only used half the ingrediants yesterday, so I brought the rest in to make myself lunch at work today! Yay! 🙂

Also, there is one food in the UK that kicks Australia’s arse…. the STRAWBERRIES. They are soooooooo nice here. Soooo sweet and succulent. Mmmmmmm. I looooove strawberries!! Been buying em almost every day to eat at work. I even have it down to the type of strawberries I like. The ones from Kent are really nice… either Elsanta or Jubilee variety. Yummm. 🙂 And 400g for £1.99 at Marks & Spencers. Not bad pricing.

Oh I got this email from a friend. Ok so I normally just delete forwarded emails… but I thought this one was rather sweet…

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends. Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you. Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, “…that’s her.”
