I need to practise on my pole and it's a lot easier when my apartment isn't warm.
[b]Pole dance challenge[/b] So this weekend, I went to the pole dance challenge preliminaries. They were hoping for 40 contestants, of which a handful of contestants would make it to the finals. Ultimately, 8 people signed up, and all went into the finals. Apparently, the judges had a very hard time deciding which 2 to cut. I guess that happens when the number of judges = the number of contestants. So everyone is in the finals.
I definitey cannot do as many of the advanced moves as most of the other girls. And I picked up a costume yesterday; I really like it :D I *must* dance in it, so I know what's it like. In the past, I've *only* danced in shorts and a tank top or a t-shirt. This is a one piece long-sleeved thing. It'll be fun making up a routine.
[b]Start of the weekend[/b]
I didn't get as much time to myself as I had hoped, but that is okay. That can come later since boot camp ends this week, as well as pole dancing. :D
Friday night I went for dinner with my mom, and then I went to the Night Market with the C Man. I was really surprised he suggested it. He was one the guys I dated that made me think he was too white for me. Experiencing anything new culturally was really foreign to him and really scary, I guess. [The Night Market is this thing that goes on in the summers here every weekend. It's just a market that is like the markets of Hong Kong...lots of food, cheap junk, and lots of people].
I was exhausted...I was really planning to veg that night. So it annoyed me a bit that he wanted to prolong the evening. AFter the night market, he wanted to go somewhere for a beverage, and then he invited himself up to my place. So we sat around for about 45 minutes, and then he left. Hmm...it felt like longer than 45 minutes.
I had also had all these plans to clean my home and get ready for Saturday since the J Man was coming over. Everything needed a cleaning...bathrooms, bedroom, kitchen, living room, and dining area. All I ended up doing was cleaning one bathroom!!
[b]Middle of the weekend[/b]
I had wanted to do some shopping at Costco, but there was no time for that on Saturday. But the time I finished cleaning and getting dinner started, I had to go meet up with my mom for lunch. After we ate, I had rush off to buy stuff for the eveining. But in the afternoon, I had an opportunity to finish off watching Beauty and the Geek before the J Man arrived. Then I just rushed to get dinner going so we could eat and then go to the movies and to the Night Market.
[b]End of the weekend[/b]
It was nice to sleep in on Sunday (and a little on Saturday...I couldn't wake up as early as I had originally intended on since my evening ended later than planned Friday night :x). I will have no problems falling back into my old sleep schedule! Then I rushed off to the pole dance challenge preliminaries. I had to hang out there longer than I wanted to :x. After that, the J Man and I just hung out some more. And some more!! It was a good time :)
