So… I Hurt my foot doing Wings. Fun. Well that was no fun. Wings for those of you who don’t know are a step done in tap dancing. They take a while to master and a lot of practice, sweat and tears – like most things.For more information on wings click here.
I still haven’t been to a physio therapist, which is wrong i know. I have been doing exercises to strengthen my ankle again though. It’s really painful! Does anyone have ideas of how I could possibly lessen the pain and strengthen it quickly? I know things like this take time and if it was one of my students I would tell them to be patient, continue with the exercises and just take it slow for a while, but it’s a lot harder to do than it sounds. How many people take their own advice?
I also just started dancing again after my operation so at the moment I am sick of sitting around and really just want to dance, it’s a disease.
YouTube and Expert Village are really being difficult and not letting me check out any videos, so I can’t suggest any to you but feel free to check out these pages and watch some of the videos so that you can see what wings are if you don’t already know.
I don’t like Mondays

I think this video is very appropriate as well as amusing.
Procrastination…Human Behaviour
Posted on June 19, 2008 in Misfits.
Ok Well that is one confusing title, which can be deciphered in many different ways. I’m taking a short break from studying (procrastinating). So I’m going to discuss human behaviour with some interesting examples.
I guess i’m not really procrastinating as this has got to do with what I am studying for my exam tomorrow.
What effects human behaviour? What makes us decide to do one thing when we know we should be doing something else? What drives us to have such strong opinions?
- We are affected by the context of certain subjects.
- Choice! Having free will means we will make use of it, even if it’s not always the rite choice.
- Humans are desire and goal driven. If there is something we want badly enough, it is in our nature to do all we can to get it.
- Needs! Humans are need centered. If we don’t get what we need our choices and decisions are easily effected. We need Sleep, Food, Water, Air.
- Rules! Human behaviour is governed and driven by a rule system that is installed from a very young age. These are the rules that make us think twice about our decisions.
What affects human behaviour, in my opinion, the most is vanity, materialism and beauty. Could they be seen as one thing? The world revolves around them.
Have a look at these two videos, which I found rather interesting. The first is a campaigne run by Dove and the second is a response to this campaign.
