Dance Uncensored

After watching Ellen Degeneres danced in SYTYCD, I fell more in love with dancing. She made dancing look so easy. I think everyone should dance even if you both have left or both right feet as long as you have fun. Last week was National Dance Day and Nappytabs choreographed a special number and I was pretty apprehensive and intimidated with the steps but I'm happy to say that I survived the routine with no serious injuries. Here's a clip of me and my brother dancing. My sister actually joined us afterwards and she did an amazing job. We spent hours to learn the dance but she learned it in just a few minutes. I'm not sure what happened to the video but it's a lot faster than the original. This might hurt your eyes a bit but we have a good excuse – we're not dancers.

Warning: Might strain your eyes and not recommended for the faint of hearts.



To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.

Payday!

Two days ago my mom handed me a dollar bill. As you can see this is a very special dollar bill – it was issued and made by Sarah. I feel so privileged receiving it. Although, I don't recall sporting a moustache during our encounter – I hope that's Abe Lincoln.


Fun Facts About Dollar Bills:
  1. A dollar bill is 2.61 inches in height and 6.14 in length and about .0043 inches thick and weigh 1 gram.
  2. It's made of 25% Linen and 75% cotton along with red and blue synthetic fibers which are distributed throughout the bill.
  3. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) prints 16,650,00 one dollar bills everyday to replace worn and older dollar bills. The government pays 4.2 ¢ for every dollar printed.
  4. The average lifespan of a dollar bill is about 18-22 months
