sooo...this is my niece bella:
how amazing is she?! she will be 4 this may. i absolutely love this pic. and for being only 3 years old, her technique is uncanny. the moment i saw this pic earlier today it took me back. many of you may not know that i danced. and by "danced" i mean i was a dancer - ballet, contemporary and jazz. it was my WHOLE life. it was who i was. and still feel that it is who i am inside; although i may not be "practicing" these days.
i came home from work finding myself scrounging through my old chest for ANY dance pictures that i have here at our apt in hb. this is the only one i found:
when i found it warren said, "your head looks weird." and yes, it does. but how ancient does this picture look? it was before digital cameras (how crazy is that?) my senior year of high school. and me taking a picture of the picture with my sub-par digital camera probably didnt help with the quality. but anyway, i miss this.
when i am driving i listen to LOTS of different music. britney, fiona, legally blonde, christian pop, luda - you know, the essentials. and i cant help but MOVE to ALL of this music. i imagine myself dancing. and it looks pretty good in my head, but i doubt it would translate that well if i physically tried to execute my choreography. in fact, it may scare people.
will i ever dance again? i dont know. but i DO know that i would DIE to see little bella in her dance class. her arabesque looks a heck of a lot better than mine did at four...

I love that weird head picture. That's my bff Erin who I was always so proud as I watched her grace the stage Gala after Gala! :) Petah the Chetah! And all that. I wonder if you could find a good studio close to home and take a class or two just for fun. You have a gift for sure! Time to get those dancin shoes out again. :)
ok first of all, love that you mentioned Legally Blonde. Duh i was just singing it at the top of my lungs yesterday to my roommate after we left her law school mock trial (how could i not sing it? i mean seriously??)
"There! Right There!"
Love you. you should dance again. you should teach me, ok? Deal?
that picture is amazing and so are you and your dance moves. i've always told you to dance again.
"I don't want to go to college...I want to dance!"
Bella looks incredible. As do you :)
I'm currently casting dancers for my next music video... between your previous beyonce/gaga performances, that picture, and your loyal friendship, you're a shoe in for the lead. I'll have my people (venice) call your people (coventry).
tender!!! you + me + dance party.
I think that would fill a void in both of our lives.
love seeing the proud parents in the reflection.
She is just too adorable!! :)
i think your head looks just fine, although looking at the pic is making me think i need glasses. I love to see your dance moves and you know it - love ya boo!
Wow.. Bella is a natural! I've never seen someone that young have such good technique. Girl you dance! It will come back and I'm pretty sure you never really stopped!
your niece is adorable. nice point! and she's 3?! wow.
i think that those of us who didn't pursue a career in dance will still never let it go. it stays in the system.
I appreciate your PO very much the picture with the article. Continues to refuel!!
