London Day 2

So I went to the jam after being woken up like 5 times..

It was fun, cyphered and judged and was immediately in awe of how ill some of the bboys and bgirls in london.

I got outside and got some pics :)

So the next day due to jet lag I slept in til 4pm.. 

making me extremely late for the battle and I got there right before.

No time to warm up, and I was embarrrasssed..

This trip/battle became a wake up call, I have to get on point with my dancing again.

It made me realize how much I have neglected my passion.

Sometimes you focus so much on pleasing others and doing things "right" that you neglect yourself and your dreams.

I vowed to return home and train hard!

I also was extremely glad I got to meet some amazing bgirls and was inspired!

I was able to get a preview of life in London for the month of May- which I will be in London for one month. Its going to be interesting...

I am just glad I am going in May and wont be experiencing too much of the gloomy weather..

ok so here are some flics :)

London Day 1

Holy Crap.

Jet lag is a BIATCH. All I could think of when I arrived was sleeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

London weather= gloomy. rainy and barely a glimpse of sun....

I was greeted by a really nice lady by the name of Judy and finally came out of my trance when she had to repeat 3 times.."hey the passenger side of the car is on the other side"- (with her lovely british acccent). 

After this I turned into the tourist.. aaaah I finally got to see what driving on the other side was like! lol..i squealed..and she seemed amused by how the little things got me excited.

we picked up my newest favorite bgirl (Bgirl Nadia from Russia) shes NASTY. a nice girl, exactly my age and always smiling------ and off we went!

she was such an awesome host that we drove by the castle, big ben and a couple of strips of cool london things.

Then the perk.. getting up to my room to meet with my roomates Bgirl Macca and Lex my Philly home girls. 

We had such an ILL room! it was like an apartment complete with a kitchen, living room, HUGE bathroom and a KING size bed! wooooohooooo!!

after this i introduced myself to the bed and slept like a baby......this all at 930am lol...there was a cypher waiting for us at 2 as well as a Bonnie and CLyde I was judging with Rocafella... 

but Ill write more about that later.

Pictures will be posted later..as well as day 2 and 3.

but I will say now- thank Gawd for Per diem cuz London is PRICEY.

London

So I have this list of places I want to go...

I will share some with you:

Spain (come on Im spanish)

Italy (Im a quarter Italian)

Greece (blue water)

Amsterdam (fun times all around)

Australia

New Zealand

Paris (romance and the eiffel tower)

Ireland

Africa

Egypt (have to see the pyramids)

Brazil

Thailand

and theres alot more...

but truthfully I just want to see the whole world.. see how others live and hows the sunsets look beautiful no matter where you go. I even have a US list.

I am here at the airport, on my way to london. (watching the hot flight attendants board the plane, they wear bright red on virgin and somehow they make it look classy.)

I am so excited to add another place to my list.

Oddly I cant wait to be in one of those red phone booths hahaha. I know I am a weirdo. 

I am so greatful for my US passport. I can atleast thank america for that. The freedom to see any place I want without being hassled anymore.

I am going to dance my little heart out this weekend.

So theres one of my dreams on the way to being completed.. See London and take a pic with Big ben and the stiff security gaurds.

So for now I say - Cheerio!

Day 1

The dream began long ago. When I was Just a little girl.. and everyday it gets closer. But I have learned you cant wait for it. You have to fight for it... 

more later...
