Smart Girls Have More Fun!

So I know this blog post is a bit delayed, but I got back to Israel after Amsterdam, and went straight into finals and even more lacrosse so I've not had enough free time to blog my experience. I will just start off by saying it was AMAZING! It was a world wind experience, but so much fun, so rewarding and something I am so happy that I got the opportunity to be a part of! I still can't believe it's real sometimes. I was a part of the first EVER Israel Women's Lacrosse team! I mean mere weeks before we were meant to leave for Amsterdam we were questioning would this trip really happen, would we really be able to pull it of?! Well we did way more than that! We had 3 teams in Amsterdam and the men and women's team swept the festival tournament and the men's national team placed 8th in Europe! Israel, FESTIE CHAMPS!!! :) I'd say that's a pretty damn good showing for the first international play by team Israel! So I left for Amsterdam on June 23rd. It ...

So my friend Khushboo blogged her A-Z of happiness yesterday and I loved the idea so much that I'm gonna blog mine too! :) A ndimas - Andimas is my birthday. In college for my birthday an ex gave me 7 days worth of birthday presents and my bestie affectionately labeled it Andimas! Andimas is one of my favorite days of the year. I love birthdays and I think they should be celebrated! B ahamas,  B each, and B reakfast - I am from the Bahamas and I am proud to be a Bahamian. I am also a true island girl, so the beach is one of my happy places. I love breakfast food and no matter how late I wake up I have to have breakfast first. I can eat breakfast any time of the day! C lean sheets/laundry - I hate doing laundry but I love the smell of clean laundry in the dryer. I also love getting into bed on freshly washed sheets! :) D ogs & D irty's - I love my baby loves. My 2 pups are a big part of my life and I miss them so much. Seeing a cute dog always puts a smile on my fac...

I really get a little bit annoyed when people automatically equate pole dancing to stripping. The two are NOT synonymous! I pole dance, I love it, it's great exercise, I have made great friends through it, I have grown as a woman from the experience and it's a form of therapy for me. So I have taken this moment to educate those people that don't know much about my art, but are a little judgmental. Pole dancing has become a new global dance phenomenon. There are pole dancing studios popping up all over the place. For the first time pole dancing was a part of the MTV show America’s Best Dance Crew a few seasons back. However, there is still some stigma about it. When most people hear pole dancing they automatically think of strip clubs and the naked women that work there. Pole fitness should not imply moral indecency, women are not dancing in class in front of each other naked. The majority of women don’t want to see other women naked anyway. Yes we wear minimal clothing...
