I am 12....

Hello all and hope you are having a terrific day.

Today, when I was in the middle of taking my pilates class at From the Core in Benicia, I realized I had been taking pilates for a year now, but more importantly, this is also my 12 year anniversary month in belly dancing. I started taking belly dance lessons with Loa Kirkbride through the Benicia Parks & Rec. in Jan. 1996. WOW, I am 12 years old in the belly dance world. THAT IS SO COOL!!!! For all of you who know me or who dance, you know that dance takes over your life, your heart and your soul quickly and my life has been completely emerged in the dance for 12 years now. YEAH!~!~!~!

I finished my pilates class and went to have a manicure and pedicure as a gift to myself. I am looking forward to my class tonight where we will dance until our hearts are content and dance our butts off.

Take care all and keep doing what makes you feel whole (or find something that does!).

Love to you all and thanks for 12 years and beyond. :)Tammi/Yasmine of Sirens In Sanity

I should really learn to read. My first impression was WHAT? She's 12 in that picture?? I sure as hell didn't look like that when I was 12. CONGRATULATIONS! I'll be 12 next September.
