What the Hell??

Bikram was lecturing again tonight, and we were given a pee break at 11:30. I am walking back to the lecture tent, and standing there are my friends Donny & Bevy Naclia from Westlock!!!! Another couple from Westlock/Smith, Connie & Gerald Brost are with them. They came for my grad, and I had absolutely no idea! It was one of those sureal moments where something is totally out of context. I was so happy and excited, I forgot to cry [for a change!]. I still can't believe they are here.

I took them over to the yoga tent to get a good whiff so they could get the real essence of the place. haha. Ulysses [owns the Mexico City studio] was there and he tried to convince them to come take 85-yr-old Emmy's class in the morning, but they are off touring the Grande Canyon tomorrow while I sweat it out in the yoga tent.

We had a great yoga class this afternoon with Craig. Such a knowledgable man. He is Bikram's right-hand man and he has been travelling the world giving Bikram lectures. It was such an awesome, energizing, positive class, something that has been missing the last few classes. We are now down to 4 more yoga classes and 4 more lectures. Wow. So close...

A Week of Lasts

This week will be the week of lasts. We had our last Saturday yoga class, and now we have finished our last Monday classes...8 to go...yee-haaah!

We had more posture clinic this afternoon, the last one, to get people up on the podium and do the intro and to string two or three postures together. I was totally not ready to do that, so I took a step back and let the rock stars shine.

Bikram started his posture lectures tonight. He will be going through each of the 26 postures and explaining the proper way to teach a beginner using the dialogue. I found it quite interesting. And the best part is that he let us go at 12:30. No movie!

I am blogging as Melissa is packing her bags. I am finding it fascinating to see how she is going to morph all the stuff she bought into one suitcase - ha! I will miss her though, it's been great to have her support - and it was fun too. :)

Week 8 done!

Week 8 done...one to go! The countdown has begun.

I had a great weekend with Melissa, Michelle, and Leanne! We shopped until we dropped. We left the hotel Saturday at 1:30 and didn't get back until 10 pm! We had so much fun together, it was so nice to get out and not have to worry about studying dialogue.


Melissa and I were sleeping by midnight and didn't get up until noon! Sunday was a repeat of Sunday except we were home by 5:30 because Michelle and I were going out to our group dinners.

All in all, a nice ending to our week eight, and the start of our final week here. It's hard to believe we are nearing the finish line.

Melissa, single handedly increasing the economy of Las Vegas!

Group 8 dinner. The last time we will all be together now that Posture Clinic is done.
