Salsa Baby ;)
Today I had a blast going out with my friends…they dragged me out of my apartment coz they knew I was going through a depression…12 people showed at my place uninvited and I usually hate it when they do that bas it was very funny how they all came in….they all looked good and they were ready to party…
Our destination was one of the hot salsa clubs in town…I got all dressed up in red…you know to get into the mood…hahahahhahaha…
We had our little United Nation going on, we had the Latinos (Mexicans and Puerto Ricans) the Arabs of course (mostly from the Gulf area with an exception of a Moroccan-cutey) and some friends from East Africa (to be exact Zanzibar and Kenya) and within this little east African group they were mixed…Indian/Arabs/Africans…LOL
But man they can shake what their mama gave them….the funny part we kind of created our own dance coz my beloved Swahili friends had their own little dance going on and we just all followed….hahahahhahaaha
Now my thighs, tummy and my butt are sore….it was a nice little workout.
Here is a little Swahili word that I know “nakupenda” which means I love you.
I love you “Beoble” ;)
I decided to share with you the song I was dancing to in the club and one of my old time favorites for the queen of salsa Celia Cruz “La Vida Es Carnaval” (it was my first song I danced to in my salsa class)
So enjoy the link…sorry I wish I knew how to download the song into the blog…It would’ve made things easier…but anyhow enjoy ;)
adore ustedes y las vivas ( I don’t know if I said it right)
cheers ;)
you go girl i am so glad you had fun.. i hope you thought of me ?

Here's another important Swahili phrase that a girl should never be without:
"Nippe Centimo Ja" : Give me 100 cents
Money, just as important as love... sometimes;-)
spanish: te adoro y la vida también = i adore you and life as well.
