Switching lines.
What does that REALLY mean? Shall we "define" it?
(from my Macbook dictionary)
"SWITCH = an act of adopting one policy or way of life; or choosing one type of item, in place of another; A CHANGE!"
Let me translate this in 'black girl terms' . . . ADOPT your way to another spot in the room or movvvvvvvvvve yourself out of my way; why don't you chooooooose somewhere else to go, instead of . . . the place that you been standing all during class; better yet - CHANGE LINES!!! lol Thaaaaaatttt's about clear now . . . RIGHT? :))))))
I just don't understand the logic of when a teacher says: switch lines . . . no one moves or if they do they "pretend." Its really not that hard of a concept people . . . if you see a large wave of people moving behind you - that might mean that you should move too! Ding! Ding! Ding!
What's with the selfishness of the "front people" NOT wanting to move? 1. No one is "taking" your spot . . . we have no assign spots in dance class! Can you imagine if you came into the room and your name was imprinted on the floor with a box around it and you could ONLY dance in that spot? Borrrrrrrring! And pretty pre-ballet level 1 . . . when they make the kids stand on the those little circles to teach them about first position. haha 2. Did youuuuuu know that if you followed the "sequence" of switching lines . . . you might end up in the spot that you started in? Ohhhhhhhhhhh Shnappppp! The Logic. I wish I had a 3 - but I don't.
HOWWWWWWWEVER! There are some individuals who should NEVER switch lines . . . the BIG AND TALL. Yes . . . the ones who are already about 7ft tall and can already see over the choreographer. Please tell me why you would stand in front of the girl who is 4'3"? lol Common sense people . . . COME ON.
What else should be said about switching lines? I guess I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say that you are intriguely entrenched in intensifying intellect impacted with endless information. Naw, Naw . . . :) Instead, we act like Impi hovering around the choreographer in full armor. lol
I kid you not - this is an huge dilemma spreading across all lands! We MUST figure out the best solution! Super D to the rescue! Here we go . . .
The teacher says: Switch lines!
THIS is what will happen to those who choose not to switch lines =
BLACK GIRL PATROL (a.k.a Me) eases up along side of victim and slowly makes sure mouth is in the right alignment with ear, full vocals ready . . . "SHE SAAAAAAIIIIDDDDD MOVE!" After the words come out SO gloriously - I end with a roll of the eyes, swoop of the neck, lips puckered, one hand on hip, slight plie to the left, and the most vicious grandmama stare (like the one when you tried to fall asleep in church as a little girl). And until victim moves - you WAIT! Then on to the next victim(S) . . .
kids! don't try this at home - signing off.
