I cant believe it…. Finally I got myself enrolled for the SALSA classes.. wow.. wat fun.. & the too gud thing bout it is dat they are very near to my home… hardly half a kilometer… I always had a wish to ‘learn’ dance… although em a gud dancer myself.. but salsa is the most ‘in’ thing these days… i decided to get myself enrolled for the classes as soon as I saw the sign board of  “ALEE club” quoting.. learn salsa, jazz, hiphop,… bla bla bla..… after all this is wat I wanted all my life.. (sounds too stupid to say dat, but its true.. I love it) I called up my friend to as she has similar dreams… but in vain… she refused giving stupid reasons starting from high fees to no time at all! I had no companion.. still, my determination was too strong dat I decided to join the classes without her.. L & without even a partner.. (u have to have a partner for salsa)… L I got enrolled on Saturday to join on Sunday… aaaaahhhhhhh… I was looking forward to it…

Sunday 11am was the ‘reporting time’… I got up early at 9 am (I would have slept till 12 noon if it was a normal Sunday.. without any classes).. & managed to reached by 10:45… some other class was going on.. I waited in the waiting lounge…… 11am and I was in the room… it was a big room… with a big mirror on one wall… goddess Saraswati on the other….. I did a pranam to mata saraswati n then looked at my instructors…. Both seemed younger to me.. & then I came to know… my instructor is my partner… ok.... he is a gud dancer… n had a cute smile… I liked him.. he taught me the salsa basics. At the end of the class, my instructors…. praised me for my dance…. I loved it…. J

It was time to go back home…. I didn’t wanted to… I was enjoing it so much that I didn’t realized where this one hour of my Sunday “morning” had gone..

The first thing I did after reaching home was to call my frnd who had refused to join the classes to tell her the experience…… she was envious… jealous… n wat not… but I know… she had some inhibitions to join.. n I understand… after all both of us wanted to live our dream to perform… act, sing n dance…

Often we tell each other… “yaar.. hum galat profession mein hain… hum is duniya ke liye nahi bane… hame stage pukaar raha hai…” & whenever we passed by NSD, our wish to join it became stronger….. often my frnds say… “tera talent waste jaa raha hai”… I know they say that mordantly… but its fun to hear dat…..

Next class was on Saturday.. I enrolled myself for the weekend batch… obviously.. cant think of taking the classes with my erratic working hours… waited for Saturday te whole week.. & then.. came to know on Friday evening that I will b working on Saturday…. No… no god.. u cant do dis to me… don’t take my class away from me……. Nahiiiiiiiii…. L…  Saturday was too boring…… with this sadu report to b mailed to the client by Saturday evening… I was working .. in the office.. & had forgotten bout the classes… how can neone work on Saturday yaar… aur agar use report mil bhi gayi to woh kya kar lega…? Kaunsa teer mar lega…. This was my state of mind… ne how… I finished the report & mailed the same….

Since the time I joined the classes, my hate for my profession is becumng stronger. I feel like doing the things I enjoi the most… theatre… I will join NSD soon.. ya.. I will… J
