This was my view while doing the Zumbathon for the National MS Society. Of course, there were hundreds of people on the steps with me, who I was facing, but you get the picture.

Shawty Got Moves- Get Cool
If you wanna see me get crazy, play this song.
She move it, she move it,
Her body, her body,
So sexy, so sexy,
Can’t hide it, can’t hide it.
The way she hit the floor, (yeah)
I can’t even explain,
The way she pop it low, drop it low,
Shawty got moves.
Particpated in a Zumbathon for the National MS Society in Philadelphia today on the Art Museum steps. Our cool-down was to the Rocky music, it was amazing dancing while overlooking the city. It was such a huge rush. Plus knowing that my team was the #1 fundraiser and closed the event was great.. We raised $20,000. Total the event raised closed to $80,000, and there was tons of teams, so we’re really proud of ourselves.
Plus, I realized I can rock a bandana - gonna have to get one in every color, aha.
Went to a Zumba Toning class tonight for the first time.
My whole body feels like jelly. Totally buying toning sticks next time I go to a toning class. Unfortunately her class is on Mondays, so I won’t be able to go for the next few, but this summer I am going to look so good.
She played “Drive By” in class!
Yay! I’m a happy camper.
I think I was a bit more jumpy than normal, because, damn, my legs hurt.
I’m fundraising for a Zumbathon I’m participating in to benefit the National MS Society.
I’ve already made it to 100% of my goal in fundraising, but I’d LOVE to surpass it. MS awareness, research, and patient-assistance are near-and-dear things to me. My close friend’s mom, who is also my manager, was diagnosed last year without medical insurance. The MS Society has helped her tremendously.
I also have 2 close family friends of my parent’s who have had MS for years. One of them is 30 and showing no symptoms and the other is in his late 50s and been going down hilll for the last 10 years or so.
If you have even $1 to donate, I, and everyone who benefits from the National MS Society’s work, will thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
I’ll also bake you cookies or give you a tomato plant (or 2, or 3 - I have a lot. Planted waaaaay more seedlings than necessary). Seriously. a tomato plant costs way more than $1, and I’ll give you a few!

The Zumbathon is happening on the Art Museum steps in Philadelphia. The more each team raises, the higher on the steps they get to dance. My classmates who have done it before said it was a blast, so hopefully I’ll be able to do it annually.
Zumba-ing 2 days in a row has kicked my ass.
My abs feel so good, though. My friend is peer pressuring me to go again tomorrow, so we’ll see if that happens. Not sure my butt and thighs can take it, but I’m just so addicted.
Going to Zumba on my back deck.
Hopefully the neighbors don’t start watching from their decks, ahah.
I bought Zumba 2 for the wii.
I did some number crunching, and going to most walk-in classes around here or signing up for a 6week session result in the price per class being between $3-$6. So if I did 2 classes a week I’d end up at $6-$12 a week for a total of 2 hours of working out. I figured that buying the game at Best Buy for $40 now and doing it 2-3 times a week for an hour or more would result in not only a better physical/mental status, but a better result for my wallet.
Luckily I have just as much fun doing it on my own as I do in a class setting. Plus, I can always hop in on a class when I have a few extra bucks on my dresser.
