Things You Should Do: Dance By Yourself

This was snapped at a friend's birthday party.

I've never been afraid to dance by myself. It's one of the many things I don't mind doing alone. While I do enjoy the company of my close friends, I find tranquility in singleness. It's probably because I'm so self-sufficient and enjoy doing things on my own, but whatever.

There's something absolutely liberating about dancing by yourself. Whether it be in a crowd or in your bedroom, allowing the beat to control your body is thrilling. Music creeping into your ears and exiting through your limbs is such a great feeling. It's even better when you don't have to worry about some nasty dude trying to hop on your backside for a 1-2-3 rubdown.

So to avoid that, my moves are usually mean and could possibly knock you out. True story: I once hit a girl in the head by accident while breaking it down. I can't help it. When the right tune comes on, the dance floor is mine. Especially, when it's Beyonce - End of Time. (*holy ghost jig*)

More reading to come in 2012!

kindle

Well, I know I haven't been blogging here for a very long time. It's become hard to blog here, as my other blog (Dark Berry Beauty) has taken off and consumes most of my internet time. Kind of crazy that I plan on launching another blog in 2012 that's not fashion/beauty related. I'm pretty excited! More details to come next week.

I was recently gifted a Kindle Fire by my brother and I love it! I can watch movies/tv shows on it and read books. I really just wanted a Kindle to read books because as much as I love physical books, a Kindle is just so portable and easy to carry. If I really love the book, I'll go buy a hard copy. Having a Kindle allows me to read all my children books in secrecy. You know, I need to do research.

I still can't believe 2011 is almost over. 2011 was just not my favorite year. Among many things, I lost my best friend. I know 2012 is going to be my year of success and happiness. I can't wait for it to start! I'll be kicking it off with a juice cleanse.
