Its something that everyone should do once in their lifetime.
Last Friday I celebrated the lead up to my 28th birthday by taking part in an amateur salsa competition.
Jasmine, my dance partner and I only got together a few weeks beforehand and jokingly said that we dance so well together that we ought to take part in the beginner's competition at the Copacabana club.
It was great fun, we didn't win anything or get into the final round but we had heaps of fun, considering that we only had a few months of lessons under our collective belts and 2 nights of practice before entering into the competition.
Enough said; here's the video - enjoy!
P.S.
Check out ninja dancer and his anorexic partner.... somebody please feed her a cheeseburger!

Ready, Steady.... Go-Live !
Its finally over! The project I've been working so hard on the past year and busting my chops from sacrificing weekends at work and 12hour days during the week has finally come to an exhausting anti-climax this Monday afternoon, during the last day of the Easter holiday long weekend.
The national managers came together for a conference call and came out announcing to everyone that the "go-live" decision was made, meaning that as of Tuesday morning we will be able to start billing Queensland customers. This would no doubt make Origin the 2nd biggest utilities company in Australia's contestable electricity market, since the Queensland electricity market got deregulated.
I need to get my life back to normal again. I woke up late Saturday morning and for a brief moment was confronted with a sudden feeling of unease, as if I had to do something or be somewhere. Force of habit; I thought to myself as I made breakfast and pondered what to do with the rest of my free day. For once, I didn't have to check my emails or run into work.
It was just nice to sit around the house all afternoon, potter around, watch a movie or two, go grocery shopping and then cook a late lunch.
In a random act of spontaneity, I signed up for an amateur salsa dance competition, held in 3 week's time at the Copacabana.
Jasmine, my salsa dance buddy at Thursday's class has agreed to partner up with me and train for the event.
We've booked in Liz, our salsa instructor for a private lesson next Saturday afternoon. So bring it on, oh yeah !
