About Last Night...

We had our dress rehearsal at Arthur Murray Dance Studio last night. Snap Magazine was present to do a photo shoot of Adam and I and the competition, Tess van Straaten and Chantal Ziegler and Chantal's dance partner, Danny Laurence. Teodora and her team at Arthur Murray set up a stunning evening of fun for all of their students to watch us perform our Stars On Stage dance routine. Adam and I were first up and I was absolutely mortified to learn afterwards that my nude colour bra was showing in the back because the top piece to my costume is actually quite low cut in the back. I say, "wardrobe malfunction"! So now I have to re-think and possibly change the top to my costume at 3 days out after an exhaustive search for the perfect jewellery to go with my outfit.

Oh... Adam and I will be on Shaw Cable TV with David Lennam on Channel 11 starting Thursday, May 27 at 6:00pm and will loop every 20 minutes until late Friday. David Lennam is the Media Everyman and the sexy commentator (Bruno wannabe)for Stars On Stage.

If you haven't bought your ticket yet, call me at 250.995.3605 or email me at sally.chan@fairmont.com.

Tony's Duds...

Just got back from trying to dance in the new pants Raji's mom made me (thanks Mrs. Basi!!!). They look HUGE but are really comfy (I may have to wear them around the house after). Spent Saturday wandering about Mayfair Shopping Centre looking for a shirt and jewellery and found everything I needed. And finally my bracelet obession pays off as I get to wear some of them as well!

It seems weird dancing in the outfit. I'm used to rehearsing in shorts so the fact that the pant legs keep getting underfoot is a bit distracting. I'll get to rehearse twice this week in them tho (once for the Moondance Arts recital and once for my last SOS rehearsal).

Well, we'll see how things turn out in 5 days (YIKES!). I may not dance the best but I'll look GREAT! ;-)

PS. I'm bummed Sally's Fan Club is bigger than mine.. I need your help.

At dance rehearsal today, the competition, Chantal Ziegler, Constable, Victoria Police Department tried to take out my dance partner, Adam, by smacking him in the lip as we were all rehearsing our dance routines in crowded quarters. Poor Adam!
