So the Mumbai show went very well! I had a lot of fun and got ready in a much nicer room :)
I also had work yesterday so being active at work and then preparing and dancing is hard work!! I was so tired!! I was so tired I could barely eat the delicious curry :( that was the sad point of the night.
But here's a picture!

Making room
I caught a cold on Monday and really felt icky and tired on Tuesday. So icky, in fact, I didn't go to class... Noooo!
I did go to practice for our restaurant show but I ended up getting a small fever after taking a nap before that practice.
Anyways, I got inspired to practice at home. I know carpet isn't the best thing to dance on but it made me feel inspired to dance! I cleared a room and practiced! I think I'm gonna do this more often.
I feel pretty good about today. I watched Game of Thrones as soon as I woke up, fixed costumes while talking to my mom, got my tax payments in order, got dinner, slept for 2 hours, practiced and watched some belly dance videos to feel motivated again.
Recently I haven't been motivated to dance. I really want to start doing solo shows. My mom thought I just need a break which I might do.

Goals in Belly Dance
Where do I go next?
Sometimes I feel I'm not sure what I should be doing next or if I'm being willynilly about my progress.
Now that the event and restaurant shows are over, I can go back to just self improvement. I wish I could see myself during show time but I have absolutely no video. Usually, video isn't allowed during the shows. I think I'm still holding back when I practiced.
During Golden Week (an end of April-beginning of May holiday in Japan), I helped a friend out with a parody video. I did some improv dancing and I have to say that I look so much natural in my dance than with choreography. Of course, improv is naturally natural! But I was surprised at how much better I looked when I danced to "Gangam Style" haha!
So I plan to take several private lessons to show a dance and get feedback. There is a pro training course audition later this year, so I have six months to prepare!
