My last belly dance class was tonight and I was so unhappy. I couldn’t do so much of what we did and I tried to keep a positive attitude but I just sucked so bad I was embarassed. One woman next to me was undulating like crazy. I hate her. She moved her hips with absolute precision and I was so so so jealous of her. I decided she was my nemesis- the anti-Sadie. I’m sure she thought nothing of me. Except about how bad I was.

I started working on a bias cut skirt this weekend and cutting it out was easy and I understand what it means now to cut the material on the bias. I made a mistake in the pinning so the sewing was screwed up, but I’m still proud of myself. I pinned my messenger bag pattern to the material but I can’t tell if its right so I’m taking it to my sewing instructor before I cut it. I bought some great material this week to make messenger bags. Yay!
I really love my instructor but my classes are over. I had an extra long class on Wednesday to make up for the fact that I have an open house to attend next week.
She told me that 1) I have a good range 2) I have good timbre but apparently I can’t keep pitch and she can’t help me. So I’m going to take private lessons outside of Old Town. I start next week with someone I kinda knew from before. Its expensive so I will have to see if I think its worth it.
