This was the hardest day for me, physically. Mentally I noticed that I was balanced, which is good. There have been weeks in Duisburg that left me crying and confused because there were so many impressions and new people that my brain overloaded. It might have made a different that I already knew several of the participants and that it was in Blegium so I could often speak my own language.

Day 4 started with Jillian Michaels 'Ripped' level 1. It is slightly harder then the shred series but I liked it. High Intensity Interval Training seems to be an easy way to work in a small amount of cardio and strength training into your day. It is hard work though, the back of my legs were killing me.

On day 4 we finished the drum solo choreo and drummed the whole thing. We had a party at Johanna's room for the people staying in the Ibis. Johanna is sassy, fun, smart, and slightly bolder then everyone else. For example, her eighties costume was outrageously gorgeous. We got down to her room for beer, wine, hard liquor from Tsjech Republic and personal stories. It was very good! Sharon and I went back to our room around 01.30, trying to pronounce the Polish tongue twister that Camelia tried to teach us. It sounds like 'tsj tss tsh tthsjsht sthsst sstj tsjj'. Our new friends are:

Camilia - Polland. Blond hair, very slender, has a very tight muscular dance style. Has a great sense of humor, but you need to get to know her in order to understand her. 25ish?
Jannah - Tsjech Republic. Blond, open face, loose and wild dance style. Twenty four I think?
Johanna - Belgium. Strong dancer, very good technique. Blond with a smile like she is thinking of skipping school and going to the pool instead
Hanne -blond, short, full figured and a mouthwatering dancer. I totally melted watching her performance! She is quiet but speaks her mind when she feels comfortable
Anja - Belgium. Slightly older, I think forty something. She had a blast.

At this time, fatigue started to set in and my roommate Sharon told me that I had been repeating the tongue twisters in my sleep that night. She found it pretty amusing :-)
