If you had told me six months ago that I'd learn a ballroom routine and perform it that same week at the studio party, I'd have laughed in your face. But guess what? That's exactly what happened this week. My awesome instructor, Collin, came up with the choreography on the spot on Tuesday, we made a decision on the song Friday morning, and performed it last night! I still can't believe it went as well as it did. Hubby was more impressed than ever and said I have really improved since starting last November.
I cannot tell you enough how wonderful and supportive Collin was to make this happen (specially since this was my other instructor's idea)! But Collin came to the rescue and made it work. This guy is pure gold in my book! He also did my hair and make up - will his talent ever end??? I certainly hope not! The song was "Wonderful Tonight", a remake of an Eric Clapton song, by none other than Michael Buble, singing along with Ivan Lins, a Brazilian Bossa Nova singer. I happened to have this song in my iPod because we do a Jazzercise stretch routine to it. I've always loved it because Michael actually gets to sing a few lines in Portuguese, and I get goose bumps every time because, since I can understand what he's saying, it makes me feel like he's singing it to me... Yeah, the sky is also a pretty shade of blue in my world - but it's OK... they know me here :-)
