ANNOUNCEMENT

Just to let everyone know, we’re currently in the works of shifting the site to a new server. What this means is instead of typing in the whole http://pdstyle.wordpress.com you’ll only have to type something much simpler, such as thepdstyle.com

Easy to remember, right?

You’ll see minor changes in site layout every so often, starting with the banner, and then the updation of each of the separate pages. We went through a couple of iterations of making a new banner, and I think this one up now will be the one used in the new server.

ALSO, thank you to all to everyone active on this website (meaning you post comments!), this definitely means theres an audience out there that appreciates the work we put into maintaining this community website. You can also put you random comments about your team events, and improvements to the site on the FORUM page of this site. Right now its just a running log of comments, but in the new server, it will be turned into a fully functional MINI Forum — bbcode enabled, too!

FINALLY, we are still looking for writers/community liaisons to report about their local dance community. If you would like to be a part of the pD_style web team, send us an e-mail at projectd.nj@gmail.com with the title, pD_style – I’M IN!

thanks! you guys rock!

You know you’re a dancer when…

• the whole world stops when your MP3 Player runs out of batteries
• you start to groove once you hear a good beat.
• the word wooooo means much more than it seems to be.
• you orgasm when you see a nice open floor.
• you understand that ancient native dancer tongue…”boom..boom ta…kakaka….hit….jump…
  turn…boom….boom ta..snare snare…high hat…booom ka…ka……ka…booom…hit…..milk…milk….BOOM TA.”
• you think it’s okay to throw your shoe at someone when they’ve done something GOOD.
• a song from a previous or current set comes on at a department store, you hear it from a car as you are walking down the street, or at a club the automatic dancer response is “aaayyyyy/ohhhhh SHIIITT….*does choreography*”
• ur friends start tellin u to stop cuz its gettin kinda old (^-^)
• u see holes and rubbed off material on the knee areas of ur pants
• ur ipod contains a list with either “choreo” or “dance” in its name
• u think ur room shrunk because u keep hitting ur bed or desk or random books while dancing randomly (^-^)
• u hafta keep buying clothes and shoes and accessories for performances cuz u wanna look good
• you feel weird about missing practice
• you say that jun quemado sang the song Mad
• you dance at a drinking party
• every clothing that you buy has to be danced in first at the store in front of a mirror
• a mirror becomes your favorite furniture
• you dance and choreo at work
• you call out of work just to dance
• your shirt size becomes a size up that you normally wear
• dancing becomes your second girlfriend =)
• you fall in love with it.
