ha! Even before the drums beat i would say, 'i don't know to dance' --- and then, when the beat comes I would dance in my mind -- the way i wish, with no one to see :)

well that was me when i was young.....now, its all about seeing....and there all is fun!.....and i know you would agree there, GZ :))

wishes,
devika
