"Clocky"
Is this a sign of how incredible lazy we have all become? ...Or just the coolest thing ever!

....I want to be a star.
"I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because
a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd
rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far;
for a might-have-been has never been, but a has was
once an are."
-- Milton Berle

Hurray for exams being finished!!!
And hurray for honours. Suprise! Or maybe not if I feel like flattering myself, my honours work turned out - in the words of Dr Joe - "Superb". The presentation went really well, I looked "smart and sexy" in my suit (thanks Jack), and I handled my defense very well, or so I am told - parts of it are blacked out in my mind, hehe! ...that said, I still need to get in gear and show my face at the office soon.... those grad students and post-docs think I'm slacker enough as it is - not a fair impression!
But! School work is not the purpose of this post. Last night we celebrated the completion of exams, and it was just a fantastic night! We Salsa'd and Samba'd and had so much fun. After few lessons "white-boy-style" even the self proclaimed non-dancers were dancing!
"You gotta hold your arms in close like THIS!"
I think that what made everything so fun was how refreshing it was to be spending time with new people, and a new ...thinking style I guess. It was about going out and being sexy and dancing.... And by "being sexy", I'm referring more to what you feel as a woman than what you see as a guy. The dancing is sexy, but without the feeling like you're actually having sex on the dance floor. As I said - refreshing. I wanted to party until the sun came up, though it might of meant losing my shoes!
Well, that said, it is now my decision to partake in some salsa lessons. I am enlisting the Brazilians for this, and it had better be good - I need something to show off at Ãno Nuevo 2006 !
Beijos,
ciao!
