Dancing Blues

I am a very bad follower.

Went to The Rent Party again tonight at the ODC. I am always fascinated by Blues dance because I love jazz music. Blues dancing is sexy. I love watching it. So, besides doing the usual swing dance tonight, I went to the Blues room and danced with a couple people. I have never taken a Blues dance class before, and last time (also my first time) I did it, my dance partner had to stop me and told me just "follow his lead". Argh...

I was more "submissive" tonight, but I would suggest me to take a class next time. I am used to dancing salsa and other dances where both dancers need to be proactive with the moves. Blues dance is like the follower basically just leans on the lead and that's it. Maybe I should dance with girls and lead next time... Since I found girls dancing with another girl even sexier. :)

Yet another Y! Party

This year, we did not have the extravaganza like what we used to have in the past, but it doesn't mean we didn't have as much fun as before.

Each team had its own party last night, and I was lucky enough to get invited to both my team's and another group's gatherings. I am still the same old me who is easily content and merry as long as there is enough booze. :D

Things have changed quite a lot over the year at Y!, but I have become even more attached to my team (meaning I can scream, kick, and bully them all the time, j/k). One of the reasons why I am still in this giant corporate world is that I really like the people I work with, having the social bonding with them was enough to make me commute an hour each way to work everyday. In my own terms, being a community manager means more than making the users of my product happy. Making my team happy is another important task on my job description.
