What if you didn't dance?

Depends if I stopped dancing I right now I'd write more.

If I had never gotten hooked I'd probably either still be fighting or training fighters for MMA.
 
Alternative (to chips) quick snack options to eat while typing at the computer:

~ baby carrots
~ slide celery with peanut butter and rasins (ants on a log)
~ peanuts
~ grapes
~ sliced apple
~ goldfish crackers
~ trail mix (peanuts, raisins, dried fruit)

As a fellow dancer, I just thought I'd drop in a little promotion for healthy eating. :D It goes with the whole dance ambassador thing. :wink:

I was just joking about the chips. These are indeed much better food choices. You are so right about healthy eating going with any sort of athletic activity, like dancing.
 
Actually I had a lot of hobbies before I started dancing like maniac. All my hobby stuff sits around the house waiting for me to have time to get to them. I really want to make time to get back to some of it. I really enjoy all my hobbies but since dancing took over my life, and I have to work to feed my dancing hobby, everything else is gathering dust. I have 3 cameras for photography, I make novelty candles and soap (mostly around Christmas time), I have tons of scrapbooking materials, stamping and card making, I love to sew, and garden. I have tons of cook books but don't have time to try any new recipes. Who has time to eat? :D
 
What type of photography did you do dancergal? I actually got my photography start working at a portrait studio the year before I started grad school. From there I moved into doing scenic stuff, sunrises/sunsets/flowers/animals/landscapes/etc.,…all of which pretty much fell by the wayside once I started grad school. Then, about a year and a half ago, I realized that it would make a lot of sense to start doing my own ballroom photography, mostly of the people/couples I had interviewed...so I dug out my old camera equipment, wiped off 4-5 years of dust, and started shooting again.
 
Hi SD, I took a photography class in my 20's, where I learned to develop and print photos, mostly B&W. Since my kids were babies at that time, most of my photos were of them growing up and artistic type photos to please the instructors. Then I just got too busy with the kids to develop film, but I've always taken photos of them growing up. I've recently gotten back into taking more scenic photos, especially since I've moved to Santa Cruz. I'm re-learning how to use an Minolta SLR since my cameras of late were all fixed snap shot type. I have a digital camera that's really cool to use, but I haven't has a lot of time to experiment with it. You can visit my photo album if you care to at: http://community.webshots.com/user/thatpam
I usually try to scan some of my photos for my online friends. (I'm always behind schedule doing that too!) I take photos of anything that interests me. The scrapbooking has developed from trying to put my photos in some kind of order. I would love to take photos of dancers dancing. I think it would be very cool, but I haven't tried that yet.
 
Oh my G-d, some of those are absolutely fantastic!!! Geez, you have me inspired to want to get back to doing scenic shots as well... Geez, I don't have enough time for everything I do as it is... :?
 
Thanks for the compliments SD. I appreciate it. I wish I had more time to explore the area around here, I just love ocean and beach shots. I keep seeing beautiful scenic shots and wish I could stop and take a picture, but I'm always rushing off somewhere. I promised myself when summer came I would take more photos, but summer is gone and I only have a few to show....but my dancing shoes call me and I must go..... :lol: (btw-check back on my albums from time to time. I'm always updating them whenever I get a few minutes to myself to scan my photos in)

It's all good...I felt the need to mention something really for my own future reference. I DO tend to keep chips and licorice muncies by the computer. :oops: Very bad dance ambassaor...very bad. :oops:
 
Actually had me thinking about the contrast in my fridge at the moment, sort of noticed it when I got home last night...

My roommate: whole milk, cheese, beer, whisky, chocolate...
Me: eggs, tofu, vegetables, workout recovery drinks...

And our cabinet:

Him: chewy granola bars, nesquwick powder, noodle cups, chips ahoy cookies…
Me: protein powders, misc. vitamins & supplements, whole wheat pasta, soy pasta, soy nuts, almonds…

:lol:
 
I guess we'll have to let you be a dance ambassador, too, SD. :D
With a fridge like that, you're obviously taking this stuff seriously. :D

By the way, if I make it to San Diego, I'm bringing my own chips! :lol: :lol:
 
Honestly Jenn, when I got back from the Italian Open (start of July) I knew I was wrapping up my primary research phase and, as such, would actually have the time to find a partner and get back to competing. That's still a ways off, but I've really been working on getting into competitive shape. I'm not one of those genetically gifted types, so it's been hard... :cry: The nice side of it was when a whole bunch of people (including some I don't even know that well) commented on it to me at the USDSC the other week. :D
