Hi guys, what a time, what a time. So there I was preparing for this, ready to dance, thought I had it in the bag and then ... surprise, surprise, I sucked!
I’ll be real with you guys, while dancing last week I thought I was doing the right thing, I felt confident and victorious till the judges gave me the results. Well I’ll be the 1st to say it felt like hell.
Simply put, I’ve been to the bottom of the bucket and the stuff down there tastes terrible, so I have no intentions of walking down that route again.
I do however feel that it was more of me being judged than my dancing. I know I was late for rehearsals (but I was there and I was eager to learn), I know I answered my phone a couple of times during rehearsals (but I gotta try balance all my other work with Strictly, which takes up a gang of time, but I’m adjusting).
With that said and done, I don’t dispute I gotta work harder, which I’m doing. I mean I saw a pic of us on the floor and man oh man was I doing the wrong thing, I’ll admit it. I haven’t seen the rerun of the episode and to a certain extent I don’t wanna see it, I just wanna focus on next week and deliver the goods.
It’s been fun, real interesting, I do struggle with some of the technical stuff at times, like my hold or getting a step right, but it’ll come together.
My partner and coach gets real frustrated with me when I don’t get things quick which also works on me, but we speak about these things and we working on it, must be just the pressure taking it’s toll on us. I mean, after all she is a pro and a champ and I guess I gotta live up to her standards - she just wants the best out me, which is a good thing and a point I’ll reach.
Thanks for the people giving positive advice and encouragement, we’ll work hard and we gonna rock the mambo this week. Just vote couple no. 4, Shugasmakx & Seipati, keep it locked to your screen on Thursday.
1 Love.
Oh yeah, by the way another thing some people don’t like me doing – uncompromised self promotion, here it goes:
