tham thika thika thai..

finally...! i did it. after years of talking about wanting to dance, i finally took the crucial step and attended my first lesson. it was good enough to get me grinning gleefully for an hour on end. i was so excited that i came back and decided right away to buy a full length mirror so i can practice at home. i've decided right away to practice an hour each day. oh boy, oh boy!! and to think that the source of all this happiness was away from women until just five decades back. hmmm. that kind of makes it even more exciting. i never could bear the - women can't do this talk. and it was the - "men should lead and women follow" philosophy of salsa which irritated me no end in the beginning. eventually though i couldn't really help loving the rhythm and the flow. so on that note, here is to the hope that i live and love kuchipudi!! yaaay!!
