Downside/Upsides for the past week:

Downside: Been experiencing an ass load of racism, and just all around unjustices here and there.
Upside: Having family, friends, and faculty to understand how I'm reacting to it, and offering support anyway that they can. Y'all are bomb!

Downside: Sat on Sproul for 4hrs. tabling with the student group, and my legs nearly froze solid.

Upside: Fun kickin' it with the interns, and I saw some of my homies and former students... ahh, the memories.

Downside: Spent 6 hrs. practicing the dance routine with the FloMotion crew... now everything hurts.
Upside: Kickin' it with some awesome dancers and friends... and watching "Kenny Rogers" and my sister beat up "Mad Skillz Monkey"... that was priceless.

Downside: Some big tournament was at Cal on Sunday, and I had to park all the way on Oxford, and then run to the "Risif" i.e. RSF to substitute teach the Cardio Funk class... dammit!
Upside: Had like 40 people in the class and they dug the music and routine... had hella energy, which made me and them feel good!
Upside: Saw my homie Garret, another hip-hop instructor there. Haven't seen that dude in a hella long time!
Downside: Had to walk back to my car on Oxford, in the dark, in the rain. Unluckily I found a crap umbrella in my gym bag. Was better off without it... boo I say, boo!

Downside: Didn't get a chance to catch my homegirl Jada perform today, cuz of the rain, and plus I felt like crap pretty much all day.
Upside: I'm hella happy for all that she is doing with her dance. Much props kid!

Downside: Alcohol is too damn expensive!!! A measly bottle of Hennessey was $30! What the feezy!!! I'm the brokest wannabe alcoholic. The funny thing, I prolly won't even drink all this stuff I'm buyin'.
Upside: Watching friends have a good time at the upcoming party. I'll be sure to have a video camera to collect drunkin' shenanigans, err, memories to watch over and over again... hehehe ;P

Downside: Last week was hell and a half work wise and life wise.
Upside: Got through it! Yay!
Downside: More hell may be on the way... yikes!

Downside: Have an ass load of reading to do, and I am procrastinating like hell!

Upside: It'll get done soon, but I was nice to refelct on stuff for a bit.

Yeap yeap, just a peek into this life of mine. Friday is the partay, and Saturday is the big performance. Looking forward to both =) Hope you all had a good weekend, and good week to come!
