How To Pole Dance 101

How To Pole Dance 101

You know that moment when you think something is easy, and you're like, "Yeah, I can totally do that in a week with some practice."

The worst is: we all believe we can do it easily.

So the other day, one of my classmates showed a Youtube video with a pole dancer.

And I was like: Me too, I can do it!

I can do it dude How hard can it be seriously?

Yeah, I totally can.

So I put my battledress, and got ready to do some pole dance.

Plus, my boyfriend will be happy. Men like pole dancing, right?

First an easy position. I have fifteen years of dancing behing me, I am pretty sure I can rock it. How hard can it be? You're basically holding your body with your hand. E-A-S-Y.

It didn't end well.



Okay, it was my first shot, it will be better tomorrow. It's always like that, trust me. In dance or music or any field, if you can't do something today, you'll rock it tomorrow (y).

For example: I played piano for fifteen years. When my hands have to play really fast, I just stop practicing and repeat tomorrow and it works!

Turns out, playing piano (with fifteen years of practice behind me) and doing pole dance (with a history of two minutes and a half) are not the same. Who would have believed it?

But I am not losing hope, I believe in my sexiness.

Let's try another position!

Ehhhhhhhhhh

What is on my face you're asking? Those are my freaking boobs.

My boobs are absolutely not small, and absolutely not muscular (unlike the pole dancers). Turns out, if my head is upside down, every roll of fat, every heavy part of me, including my boobs, obey the laws of gravity. My entire being is attracted to the center of earth.

Did you hear about this theory: the more an object/body is heavy, the more it is attracted to the Earth's core?

...Shut up I am not fat, I'm fluffy. #Gabrieliglesias

Plus, who can do this with heels? (Correction: Who can do anything with heels? Absolutely not me.)

Okay I am still motivated I can do this!

Third position.

... Conclusion?


I suck ass at being sexy. I really do. Also, did I tell you my cheeks follow gravity too? (And so do my double chin, my cheeks, my boobs again and my belly fat, but I was too embarassed to draw it.)

I give up. I am going to lay down.

Did someone say food?

Food!

There is food somewhere.



I am not proud of myself.

Have you ever seen a cartoon drawing, where there is a donkey walking because there is a carrot hanging in front of him?

Thats me. I need a carrot to work out.

As it happens, the carrot should be a really fat, fat, fat chocolate cake. Or a quesadilla. Or a perfectly cooked hamburger. Or Girl Scout cookies, oh my god yes.

Fuck it, I'll just make my boyfriend watch "Magic Mike," maybe he'll get the motivation to be stripper for me. #Dontstopbelievin

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
