It's just another year. I'm still working my novel but I'm having a slight writer's block for the soundtrack.
It's just another year. I'm still finding a vocalist to collaborate with, if I could only find time to find a vocalist, if only I could find inspiration to find time to find a vocalist...
It's just another year. Who am I kidding? It's just another DAY.
WARNING: RAPID CHANGE OF TOPIC.
So yeah, I got myself into a ballroom class this semester and was really unsure at first.
But I realized it was the BEST and MOST FUN P.E. class I ever entered. I thank my dad for suggesting it due to its future applications. After all, I am the "hold-your-cup-and-sip-in-the-corner-while-everyone-enjoys-themselves kinda guy."
I guess one of the factors that got me going is my default skill in dancing which was honed by some of my classmates back then in high school as well curricular requirements back then as well as my dad who got a ballroom instructor to teach him and my mom to dance during his 65th birthday. That instructor gave a free-for-all crash course in the rudimentary skills of ballroom dance.
Another one would be the inclination to music and rhythms. From toe-tapping and hand-drumming, to imaginary drum-playing, I usually do them to exercise my arms (yeah, right...) and well, make a fool of myself while enjoying the music (that's better).
Lastly, would be my memory. I remember things quite fast. As I recall, i had a one-week leave of absence so I missed a couple of sessions. I instantly caught up and our couple even got an A. Seriously, even I was shocked!
Plus, dancing is one of the few physical activities I have (next to golf) in which I never feel exhausted doing. I love the music enough to coordinate with it through my movements. It goes to the point where you don't really think about what you're doing because you already know it.
I recall back in my heart-struck has-been days where I would imagine dancing with someone you love because it's like you see the two of you in a whole different light. Two people create something only they can fantasize; they visualize their love through dance. Ballroom dancing basically illustrates the entire relationship. From inviting your partner to the dance floor, to directing her the steps, to escorting the maid back and setting her free from your grasp. It's something more than romantic. It's something I wanna feel again.

This song has been waltzing in my head for quite some time. It describes the perfect relationship.
