People (mostly people who don't dance) laugh at me when I say this, but it's true: I would be a much better person if I had the chance to dance every day

Dance is fun! I miss it terribly during the summer. It's awesome that you've improved so much.
I have difficulty with partner dancing though...I don't like touching people or risking hands going accidentally to places they shouldn't. You probably have a lot of decent guys out there, though. Most guys here are into hip hop style stuff or grinding, or they are hopelessly awkward.
By the way, I really do enjoy your entries, even though I comment so rarely.
See for me, partner dancing is more fulfilling. (Though I also really love modern.) It can be a bit awkward at first, especially when you get into the higher levels where there's pretty much full-body contact. I don't know, though, I never found it really awkward. And we DO have decent guys here, which is really nice. I can Latin dance with most of the guys who come Thursday nights without feeling remotely uncomfortable (and if you've ever Latin danced, you'll understand why that would be an issue). It's pretty nice.
I've missed dancing. Alot. *sigh* But, I can't talk, because I skipped out on going dancing with some friends tonight so I could hang out with my bestest friend who isn't going to college with me. But I'm taking a social dance class come Fall, and I'm way excited... :D
For an air-brained second I was about to ask if you see my sister up there but 1) She goes Wednesday nights for the Swing dancing thing and 2) Shes, eerm, actually not up there right now. Heehee. Won't be 'til Fall...
I go swing dancing every now and then, but it's really too much physical exertion for my still-sick body to take. What's her name? I'll probably run into her this fall...
And I advise taking social 180 (the class you'll be signed up for, the first) and suffering through it (it's not that interesting) so you can take 280, which is AMAZING. SO great. :)
Name's Emily. She's actually getting married in August, but she's finishing school, of course. Thats kinda how she and her fiance became friends is dancing... but its a kinda long story. :)

You really have to see Strictly Ballroom, if you haven't already.
