The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.
People don't keep journals for themselves. They keep them for other people, like a secret they don't want to tell, but want everyone to know.

Dancing King???

I wish I knew how to dance...on Friday, a group of workers and me went Clubbin at Vertigos. It was all right, but I don't know how to dance, so I did not dance as much. I always feel weird when I am on the dance floor. I get self concious of myself because I don't know what to do up there. I look around and see everyone else, moving and dancing, and I try to do it, but for some reason my feet don't cooperate with me and I look more like I am trying to keep my balance and stay standing up more than it looks like I am dancing.

I guess you are just born with it. Who teaches you how to dance? I never learned. It was just move your arms and legs to the beat of the music. School dances were whatevers. You could just go out there and do whatever. Maybe it was because I knew everyone there. But now when I go clubbin or whatever, I feel stupid moving my arms and legs to the beat. I feel that I am doing it wrong. I know the clubbin scene is not for me. I just don't seem to fit in, but I go and make the best of it. I mean it is better than staying home and watching TV.

I am just in awe looking at how the gurls dance and to see the guys dance and to know taht I can't dance. I am rhythmless. Tracy, one of my co-workers, says that she doesn't know how to dance, but she seemed to do fine when she is dancing. It's cool and everything when I dance with her, because I don't know, for some reason, I don't feel as clumsy on the dance floor, but then again, I don't know what I am doing. Is dancing suppose to make you feel self-concious? Maybe that is the reason why a lot of people don't dance. I don't know, but Tracy was dancing really well, and then so were all my other co-workers. Phuc, Candy, Juliana, Sandy, Somavy, etc. It's depressing, but I go to be socialable. I need to learn how to dance.

I mean I know I can dance if everything was choreographed. Like in the high school talent show, when we did a big dance thing, that was easy for me. I could learn the moves and then perform and do the dance well, but when it comes to just dancing spontaneously, and not having any moves scripted, well that is a whole different story. *sigh* I'll say it again....I wish I knew how to dance.
