Dance like no ones watching

do u fell like you know you can dance but u really
ew what am i doing its like im writinga diary eewewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

had a school dance friday. at first i was self conscious but then i just let myself move even though i cant dance.

marking this as complete!

..just remember when you’re out that few people are actually gonna bother judge you on your dancing, people go to parties to enjoy themselves and usually if they’ve had a drink they definitely won’t care as everyone dances like crap when they’re drunk anyway lol. even if you’re sober, people really don’t care that much they’re too busy enjoying themselves. remember you only live once, go out on the dancefloor with mates and to start off, only make eye contact with your mates. ignore the people who may be sitting down on the sidelines and just let go..if you can’t dance or feel too inhibited to (like i was) then start off by shuffling from side to side, then move your shoulders a little in a circular motion and when you feel brave enough, your hips. move to the rhythm of the music but don’t take it too seriously. maybe at first you may need to have a bit of alcohol (a bit i said..don’t go OTT!)to reduce your inhibitions but after that it should become way more natural =)
hope this helps!

ive got a grteat idea
im gonna wait right here
while everything is addiiiiinnnnggg
up up up
whiiiilllleee
everything is aaaaading up!

Done! Don’t have any pictures, but…

So I was going to dance outside and teach my friends there, but it ended up raining, so we moved inside and just sat in front of the fountain in the food court, near the main stairway. This mall is freaking huge, btw (I may edit later and add a picture of the area).

After awhile, I get up the nerve to stand and dance through an entire song with people watching, and have to sit down for a few minutes because I’m shaking so bad. Though eventually, I manage to get through it fine.

I stopped after awhile, then a girl came up and said her friends had told her someone was dancing and she wanted to see, so I started back up again and ended up dancing another hour.

I definitely plan on doing this again, just with better songs and not the ones I wanted to teach!

Going out today and in the square I talked about. :D Taking two friends with me and teaching them some dances and hoping it doesn’t rain!! Eek. Silly weather.

That’s one of the dances I had them learn. Just… without all the hip thrusts. :D

To help me lose weight I’ve recently taken up Jumpstyle (it’s how you dance to Hardstyle funny enough!) and it’s awesome. Knackers me out in minutes and I always get withdrawn symptoms when I’m out with my mates so I just start jumping out in the street, they get embarrased for me =)

My goal sometime soon, once I can get my body to cooperate with me more, is to set up in the square of a rather large shopping complex up here and start dancing. :D

Went to my fiance’s cousin’s wedding in Detroit just a few short weeks ago. If the people were popcorn we could have a fed a whole movie theater’s worth of viewers. So the DJ says they’re about to throw the bouquet and all of the people at my table urge me to go up there. Alright…. alright…. but I’m not catching it! Well, bouquet goes up, bouquet comes down… and next thing I know it’s in my hand, I’m putting a believable effort into my excitement. Alright so now I’m in the middle of the dance floor, and DJ calls for all the single men to get out there. Maybe 15-20 guys, including my fiance who decided he’d sneek in there. Groom tosses the coin, (btw do they normally toss coins? lol) and what do you know, my fiance catches it! Alright so I’m thinking, this really won’t be bad at all, possibly amusing ;) Well, the fiance is no amateur. Jaws were DROPPING. :D Holter belt goes up my thigh… I don’t think I could have been turned on even if I was trying, lol. Done, right? Nope. The DJ thought it was a good idea to turn the tables. And before I know it my fiance and I have reversed roles (which wouldn’t be the first time, lol… no really.. haha not like that) and the music is blaring and…. I’m not sure who was in control of my motor functions but this body was moving. And not just in front of 200 people, but 200 of the in-laws whom I’ve tried for 4 years to make such a good impression. Now perhaps I didn’t bust a move out there… in fact I’m pretty sure crickets were chipping, but somehow I did it. It plagued my thoughts for about two days, but now I feel good about it. Alright honestly it still makes me feel crummy sometimes but every dog has his day, right. There’s some effort needed after all that… not only to get over it, still go out and dance but to continue my pre-mission; dance like no one’s watching. I do like to dance, and I think I’m pretty good at it but sometimes it’s hard to get in that zone when I know that people are watching, and I’m feeling a little self-conscious. So I guess that takes me to #2… which is don’t give a d*mn what other people think.

There’s really no other way to dance. :)

Well ok, I also like dancing while pretending that everyone’s watching in awe, which you would think would be the opposite to dancing like no one’s watching, but really, it’s pretty much the same deal.
