Don't be such a Holy Cow.

I'm drowning myself in all things PR, Marketing and Photoshop related. It seems that an interview for being a simple seasonal employee turned into becoming the lead of Marketing team for a local Austin bookstore. :)

No complaints here - it finally gives me incentive to buckle down and grasp my head around the role of social marketing and at the same time give me a deadline to quickly learn the Photoshop skills my little heart has been yearning for. I'm just one of those people who cannot seem to be truly productive unless I'm under pressure to perform....or in a really, really good mood that I just feel compelled to make something of the day (kind of like that feeling I get when I clean the house...? Yeah, yeah - don't judge me.). So... woo! to that, and yay for me.

Wish me luck.

In Music, Music, Music! News, I am currently obsessed with Madonna - I'm sure as a result of the recent all-Madonna themed episode of Glee - andddd I also have the new Rufus Wainwright album of constant rotation.

I've also been studying all the music videos that I used to know the complete dance to. It's funny how easily some things just come back to you.
This means only one thing - that I'm finally ready to get back to my dancing roots and take some classes again. It's been waaaaay too long and this dry spell from performing has gone on way longer than it ever should have. Shame on me. Tsk, tsk. But I shall fix that soon.

I'm thinking Lindy Hop - ever since I saw this video a while back, I told myself that one day, I'd learn how to be as good as these people:


Ah! Doesn't it look like so much fun? It's a long clip, but I swear it will make you want to get up and dance after you watch it.

I'm also considering a dip back into Hip-Hop (my dearest, regrettably forgotten, old friend). The only thing that concerns me is that the instructor will usually use music that is currently popular to choreograph a routine to...and a lot of music (at least pop radio music nowadays) just doesn't do it for me anymore. But we shall see.

Anyways, that's all for now - I just needed a breather from all this research.

Lots of love and other fine stuff,
Jen
