Decisions

[dancerjodi]

I really want to sign up for bellydancing again.

But I really also want to be sane with school.

I have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Bellydancing would be on Mondays. Usually we go to netgoth coffee on Thursdays. That would mean I'd have no night at all where I could stay completely at home to work on school stuff. Ugh.

I could go home after work, do homework and then head to bellydancing. I could also just find a library, do homework, and then head to bellydancing. But those long days were really tough when I was doing them before. I'd get out of work at 4:00 and find something to do (usually meet up with friends or family in Waltham) until about 7:15 or 7:30 when I'd head into Cambridge for class. Then I'd get home at 10:00, get stuff ready for the next day, and fall into bed.

Logically I think I shouldn't take this class. But I know how important dancing is to me. Last semester I was only taking 1 class at Umass Boston so adding in the Bellydancing wasn't a big deal.

Hrm. What would *you* do?

Here's a thought.....

For myself, I have quite a few time constraints as well, so I highly recommend Belly Dance DVD's (http://www.corgibuddy.com/learnbellydance.html). You know how I feel about belly dancing (http://www.corgibuddy.com/bellydancing.html), and I definitely would miss it if I had to give it up completely from my schedule, but the best way to fit it in sometimes is just via those DVD's.

Here where I live locally as well, it's sometimes possible to just jump in on sessions periodically (although I think this only works for me, since I am a yoga intstuctor part time, and make trades with other instructors for dance time). *grin*

Whatever you don't....don't give up....you sound so much like me, where things like that really do add a lot to your life. It's a great form of self-expression. :)
