Groove

When i go dancing, i go all out. I love feeling the bass boom through my feet all the way to the tips of my fingers. I love the atmosphere of sharing the same joy with strangers. Whether it's in a hot club in Vegas or a pool party or in a museum surrounded by stuffed animals, i love it all. I experience it with my whole being and everything is perfect for that moment. The sweat dripping down my face, the sway of my hips, the need to move even if I don't know the song...it's everything. It. Is. Everything. Even when I was feeling tired of bumping into people, trying to find my girls in darkness and flashing lights and my feet hurt, if i was able to shake it, i did. I'm the girl dancing at the bar while waiting for the bartender to get to me. I'm the one dancing through the crowd, trying to get to the bathroom. I'm the one dancing up and down the stairs saying hello to the security guards. I'm the one dancing in line, trying to get into a place. I'm the one dancing. I may not have the best moves, the sexiest outfit on or look like "that girl" but I am going to have the best time I can. While all the other girls are barely moving because their feet are killing them, I'm jumping up and down to the EDM and getting my swerve on to the bangin hip hop bass. I make friends without even trying. When you don't care and just have a good time, you find those people in the crowd as well and before you know it, you're booty bumping, shoulder bouncing with someone just as cool as you. Hell, i even run into them if i move to another room and we are happy to do it all over again!

While in Vegas, something magical happened while we were at Encore Beach Club. It would be so random but fit so perfectly. The wind would kick up during the rising crescendo of whatever song was blasting and everyone would throw their hands up and feel the love and power of nature and human spirit become one. A few guys tried to talk to me while i danced, hair flying everywhere and I wasn't trying to be rude, but I had no time for them lol Especially when a few of my faves played. I was flying high on life and joy...i have no time for your shenanigans! They were all perverts anyways lol

And of course while dancing with my bestie Michelle, we always have a great time singing the lyrics and really letting loose. We can always sense the tension just leaving us and really letting go! Of course, having a few drinks in you doesn't hurt either lol We dance like nobody is watching and don't care if they are. Isn't that what it's all about anyways? Feeling alive!

I could talk for hours about each night we danced in Vegas. I could talk about the good times we had where ever we went. How we danced with strangers on the street. How i danced with a chick in the long line for the bathroom. How i danced while my girls complained about it being too cold and windy to be outside and i begged them for 5 more minutes lol How we all sang loud and proud to the old school songs at Body English and enjoyed every second of it! I could go on for days...but I won't. You just had to be there. I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the withdrawals from this trip but I know blasting a lil music and dancing in my room will surely help :)
