SUOMIFINLAND - WHATTA HOTTIE!

It's been unreal, very warm weather almost a week now here in Finland - around +20 and +30. Everyone is about to lose one's mind cause this is so untypical of this cold country. Well, I have nothing to complain! Let's enjoy as long as this lasts. Peace people, try to stand.



By watching this specific picture you can feel the heat and metropolitan athmosphere in 'small' Jyväskylä..

Clap your hands! It's all meant to be.

Once you have a tear in your eye, you think you see it all. Whether it's for good or for bad. Some things might be both at the same time. One thing feels bad, one extreamly amazing. Then, one day you'll understand that all was meant to be.

With sun, rain and warm weather towards the best summer of all times, song for us.. CLAP YOUR HANDS!

'It's funny how someone else's success plays pain..'


Street FC - Duo/ 38th (of 73)/ Choreographed and performed by ourselves, Saara & Satu

Alright, some days you may think you'll never get to the top. Some days you think you belong there but some excuses prevent you from reaching the top. Then comes a day, and suddenly you just find yourself looking down. What happened?

Street FC - Formation/ 5th place/ Choreography by Sanaz Hassani


I've danced my whole life thinking that it is the thing I can do. I have never been in top couples in ballroom dancing. My excuses were the partners I was dancing with, the judges, bad day or something else. In the end, the only one that I should've been judging was me, myself and definitely I. If not the dancing part some days, then my choises about a partner, competition or dance style.



Street FC - Showcase/ 3rd place/ Mannequin by Cooma Dancers


I went to see Finnish Championship in Latin dances in Tampere 10th of April. Once again my sister honey won, Junior II. How proud I felt, but I knew as well as she that they could've done so much better. The feeling is not the same than doing absolutely the best one can.


Latin FC 2010 - Junior II Champions Laura & Erik

I experienced this feeling two weeks ago by participating Finnish Championships in Street dances. In some categories I didn't do as well as I thought I was able to. Best result was in Showcase categorie - 3rd (of 26 groups) - with Cooma dancers (picture below). I was in one of the top groups but still felt like I could've danced better, clearer.. everything. Someone in the audience felt proud of me too, but I didn't feel it.


BRONZEEE!

Maybe this is exactly the thing that keeps you continue. You want to do so much better the next time, no matter what the result is.
