- learning hip-hop 1 (hopefully, not looking like a fool) -

i'll digress right away ... when i was thinking of the title for this entry, i thought about the "two-title-format" of some movies ... the standard being - first title should be like the "big thing" about the movie and second title MUST be enclosed in a parenthesis ... in the philippines, we have like "chorva massacre (god help us)" or "ako ang huhusga (kapag puno na ang salop)" ... hmm, how do i translate that second title??? ... "i will be the one to judge (when the coffer is full)" ... that sounded weird ...

anyway .... our company's welfare committee sponsored hiphop classes ... which is totally awesome ... i can't help it ... i just imagined dave navarro saying "awesome" when he was doing the rockstar supernova thing ... this is not to say that i liked it ... or dave navarro, for that matter ...

my friend cheribee and i love to dance ... and the lesson was for free ... so we attended it ... the teacher - ken - is a slim guy but for some reason, he is uber-bouncy ... and that makes his dancing look good and cool and smooth ... cheribee and i, on the other hand ... hmmm ... modesty aside, i used to think that we are good dancers ... above average, even -- we can mooove ... but during the class, i felt sooo ... dorky ... sooo ... forced ... and it's hiphop ... and i'm supposed to be a ... "hiphopper" ... for crying out loud!

but i decided to cut myself some slack ... i'll do my best to learn ... if i'm not successful ... at least i had fun ... and i had some exercise ...


... so much for trying to make myself feel better ...
