ZUMBA!
Zumba recently started up here in northwest Alaska, and let me tell you. I LOVE IT. I live for this kind of thing. I have never been the type to go and workout everyday, except during high school sports, when I was at practice every single day. Lately though, zumba has been the highlight of my day! If you know me personally, you know that I LOVE to dance. When I was in college, the only classes I really honestly made it to every week were my dance classes. I begged and begged everyone to come dancing with me every weekend and my sisters and I are probably the ONLY ones who can go to Lion's Club sober on Saturday night and have loads of fun. When I do zumba, I feel liberated, I feel like I belong when I am dancing, and really it doesn't feel like a workout to me. It doesn't feel like I have to try, I just have true and honest fun! Yesterday was an especially fun day, since I had such a crappy day to begin with. I met up with Kristen and her mom and Stephanie at zumba and even before the workout started, we were laughing and having a good time. Kristen and Stephanie always get a kick out of how I do things, because I get so into it, and if you are in my way, I apologize, because I don't notice. I don't notice, which also means I probably bump, or swing my arm out and accidentally hit you. I don't mean it.. it just happens. There are a couple of things that I do really over the top, and dancing is one of them. I can dance and dance and dance, like the energizer bunny. Sometimes when zumba is over, the first song comes back on and I feel like doing the workout all over again. People ask if I ever get tired of dancing, are you freaking kidding me?! I never get tired of it. I dance all over the house, while I am cleaning, while I am cooking, when I am in the shower. Basically any chance I get, I am dancing. Ariana thinks its funny, and usually it is funny, but really, it keeps me sane! On Saturday, we went to Lion's Club and danced the night away, it's such a stress reliever. My cousin Charlotte asked how I had so much energy, and really I have no idea, because I don't stay up very late, but I rarely sat down. I never felt tired either. Call it what you wanna call it, but I am a dancer through and through.
