making it through...

well, I have survived my first two days of teaching, and they were awesome! I had such fun and my class are lovely, its just such a great feeling to have my own class at last. My team at work are all so lovely, people are always checking that I am doing ok and offering such good advice. Lucky me!

Burlesque class was awesome this week too. We have started to learn our Boa dance, which will become one part of the final performance. Its really great to get something solid down, and I think I'm doing pretty well at the steps. Now just got to work on the acting part of it, with faces and expression. Funny thing, Laura asked me if I had ever watched anything by Fifi Fatale, because I apparently look quite a lot like her when I perform. I never had, but looked her up on You Tube and if I am even a teensy bit like her I'm truly flattered!!! Thanks for the confidence boost Laura :) The burlesque is really helping me feel better about myself, and I am starting to feel the most self-assured I have ever been in my whole 23 years, like I am finally growing into the person I have always meant to be, but never felt brave enough to accept. I know my faults and flaws clearly, but now I am also starting to see that I have lots of good points today, and I am actually a nice person, and a really loyal friend. Its just trying to balance my view of myself so that I see the whole of me, not just all the bad points.

Got a really good weekend ahead :)
