Another week with some weird dances and tickets reserved
I got a smaller cold after Hemavan and Icebug24, but started feeling better on Monday and did some weight lifting. Also on Tuesday wt lifting and work all the day was my representation, but my cold didn't really ebb away so Wednesday I skipped any harder training and instead went dancing at Baggböle. I hadn't danced foxtrot and bugg in 3 weeks, only lindy and swing, and I felt really rusty. It was embarassing dancing with nice, good girls that I usually give a nice ride (dance) for two songs but now I didn't quite make it to the level I think I should be at.
Well, well determined I decided I have to dance more bugg and foxtrot again so Thursday we went to Kovland (170K south) and Blender, but that's way south compared to Baggböle and a different type of people dancing there. At least their style was different. I have danced there last summer, without any bigger problems but this night only a few girls matched me in a decent way. The girls in Sundsvall (kovland) are known for sometimes dancing in a weird off-beat, and those girls made it very confusing for me. I started wondering if I was off-beat or was dancing wrong, but then all my "old" and known dance partners said I was doing OK and matched me perfectly fine.... I had to tell myself they were dancing different.
It was a lot of snobbyness though, just a few nice girls from there smiled to me and even if it was many more young girls than guys I still wasn't asked for a dance when the girls were supposed to ask for dances. This rarely happens to me, but this big crowd danced mostly with their own already known people, and some other of my friends told me about this 'problems' as known, since before, especially when it's crowded and this night it definitely was.
I was dissappointed about the night, BUT... again... it isn't the first time weird things about dancing is coming up to me, and I also know it's all about keep dancing, practice more and get to know more people. So... no more whining, just keep dancing!
Tonight I'm leaving with 9 of my friends for a kayaking weekend, out on the sea, bringing tents and stuff. And next Thursday I'm going to Gothenburg for a lindy exchange, that I'm really excited about!!
Oh yeah, I guess I should mention I'm gonna visit Denver again this winter! Now I've booked my flight to New York on Jan 1 and I hope I can arrive Denver the same evening. I'm staying for heaped two weeks, flying out from NY on Jan 18 and am probably leaving Denver around the 16th. I'm really excited about it!

Vilken tråkig upplevelse det verkar ha varit att dansa i Kovland. Inte ofta man blir behandlad på det sättet.
Jag visste inte att tjejerna också dansar i baktakt där nere.. men det är klart.. de är ju vana vid att dansa så eftersom killarna dansar på det sättet.
Ha det så kul nu i helgen!
