You know after all these years I have since realised that my interest in dancing still has not waned one tiny bit. Since small I have always loved dancing and in Primary School imagined one day I would be a ballerina. Nevertheless, I was a bit tubby at that time so my dreams were crushed into a million pieces; especially after I had to wear a standard six size uniform at standard 3!!
When I was in Secondary school I really liked the Bharatha Natyam and frequently followed two of my close friends Kamaleswari and Tharani whenever they went practicing. After a few months I decided to ask my mum if after SPM I could enrol in the Ramli Ibrahim academy of arts where I could learn the Bharatha Natyam to my hearts content. But you know what she said??? She stared wide-eyed at me in utter disbelief and was silent for what seemed like eternity until she said "TAK BOLEH"
So that was my next dancing dream shattered.
Then when I was in college my naughty sister Liz and my ever-so-handsome uncle Bull would take me out to clubs (shhh..dun tell mak) where I would dance to my hearts content. It feels great when I do it, like every being of me is liberated and I feel so free.I would dance to tunes like Michael jackson ,Kylie Minogue, Pet Shop Boys(yeah yeah I am an 80s person so what?)
When I got married I stopped going. My dearest other half says he doesn't like dancing. I bet his dancing moves sucked and he's gotten laughed at. Perhaps by an old girlfriend.. Anyway, all my attempts to persuade him was futile and in the end with kids and job responsibility it just never happened.
Then one day in my room (not gonna say which room my office or bedroom) I heard a familiar tune and my toes were suddenly alive!!!! It was then I realized I still liked dancing and thought it would be great to ring a friend to ask if she would like to go to a club with me.
Suddenly....KABBBOOOOINNNGG!!!! It hit me. Fast and Furious. No way Jose, I got tudung lah!!!
Help!!!
