bruises
Here I am again, awake during the wee hours of the morning, because I arrived about 20 minutes ago from Taft.
Waaah, right now, my knees look like they just endured frat hazing. I bruise easily on my knees, so too much weight on them cause bruises, like all the Earth poses I did a few days ago. And now there's more because of the last activity we did. Nicco, would it be OK if we do less of the kneeling stuff next time?
Oops, I digress.
(Technically) Yesterday evening, after a few exercises on energy (who in Playshop could ever forget "HEY!"?) and mirroring, I gave the floor to Nicco for the dancing. Last week, we planned to do the exercise he proposed, playing different kinds of music, and dancing to their beat. "Make it danceable (is there such a term?)," he called it. He asked me to make a mix tape of different kinds of music, from danceable stuff, like Drei's CD of anime soundtracks, to harder and slower music, like some classical music I found in my own collection, along with some jazz and other stuff.
Anyway, first, he taught us a few steps, repeated it, then did it with the music. Nicco first played one of his CDs that we danced to, then he popped in the tape I made. Bwahahaha, during some songs (each had at playing time of at least one minute), some of us lost the beat, but would then catch up. I was alternately laughing at my choice of songs, and cringing because my knees were hurting. Sometimes I even caught myself singing some of the Broadway songs that I put in, hahaha.
After the usual dinner in KFC, Nicco, Drei, Nikki, Mish, Rain and I went to Starbucks and grabbed the usual couches in the corner. Nikki brought up the topic of what would be in store next for us for our second production. With a bit of brainstorming, we found an original idea, based on Drei's quip about Nicco. "You and your dancer moves." Wahahaha. Man, the things we come up with. I wonder how we can get it to end?
Gotta get some sleep. Going with my cuz to Pepe en Pilar and Eiga Sai at 12 noon onwards.
