I've had the busiest week ever! On Monday I had class till almost 10 then went out for margaritas to celebrate Cinco de Mayo and Lisa's getting accepted to Grad school! Tuesday I worked late and watched the Pianist (WOW). Wednesday is what led me to the title of this blog- I went out for a drink with Lisa at the Nugget after my night class because I had some time to kill before I went to Demetrius' basketball game. We ran into a classmate of mine (still don't know his name!! EEK!) and just talked about random fun things. Then another classmate of mine from a different class approached us and asked if I was doing to salsa dance tonight. What?
Jack, my classmate, then preceded to teach me a few moves right there- next to the pool tables. It took me a while until I realized the salsa club was meeting there and having dancing that would take place 10 mins later. So we all decided to stay a bit. Lisa, Jack, the dude, and I joined in the group lessons. Well, apparently there was a move that called for the ladies to do a "seductive" kick... and being a karate kid in training, that really didn't work for me. Luckily I didn't hurt anybody... that I know of.
One thing I really don't get about salsa is the counting. It goes "1,2,3...5,6,7" um.. what?! Where is the 4?! I had a bit of difficulty leaving out the 4... but I think I did ok :)
Then Lisa and I left and watched the game- it was so fun! I met a guy named Kyle whom I had served food to in the dorms many times, just never met. He helped me shout things at the game like "Do Work Son!" and "Get Off Me Girl" and my favorite "Get Off Your Knees Ref- You're Blowing the Game!" hehehe.
Thursday was another late working night. Last night I went to SDSU with the AVID class, got paid (woo hoo!), celebrated my uncle John's birthday with my amazing family and the wonderful food they create, and then went to Erik's to watch the first Narnia movie. Sooo much fun! He had massive snacks, a chair with wheels, a book about cheese and some sweet music to pillow fight to. Good times. Ah, Deutschland.
And today I plan on doing laundry, catching up on homework, and seeing what Shaun is up to... ok ok and maaayyybbbbeeee straightening my room up again. I am really enjoying this single life more than I expected... but it does suck having to keep a clean room all the time, just in case.
