Sports and Salsa.
I normally do not write much about sports... it was freshment year at WMU when we beat University of Michigan in basketball. It was huge, the whole campus got pumped. We went to the big dance (NCAA Tournament) and won our first game. The excitement on campus was awesome. Then we lost... however to Stanford who went on to make it to the final four. So we felt good.
Well folks, the Broncos are doing it again. According to ESPN we will get an 11 seed into the tournament, this will not be official until tonight, but for sure we will be in the dance. Makes me wish I was back on campus; going to BW3s to watch the game, eating wings, spilling beer from the excitement of each basket, and having a good time. Good luck Broncos.
Salsa, those who know me know that I love to get out and dance Latin music. I am not overly good at Salsa, actually I suck. I love Merengue, and Bachata for sure and I can make my way around the Cumbia circle a few times as well. The GVSU Latino Student Union brought a live 11 piece Cuban band last night. The dance was called Havana Nights. The band was great and since it was all Salsa music it forced me to get out there and work on my Salsa skills.

The Cuba place in town served the dinner, it was good while it lasted |
It was the first time in a while I think I chilled with the GV bros. This semester has been so hectic I have had little time to chill and relax with them. It was also cool to hangout with some other CSAL grads. Von, Kim, and Andrea never got out on the dance floor. Shannon and Kacy didn't even stay for the music... shame on you two. Ken and Heather ventured out on the floor later on though. Next time everyone is dancing.

The band, called Sabrosura (translates to flavorful or feels good) | 
Profundo was part of an ad hoc Capawera expo during the bands intermission. |
Great night. After the dance we chilled in the Kirk (yes Carleen, the Kirk) and relaxed and laughed more then I have in a long time. Today is a work day, I have a ton to do. So I am making a pot of coffee and getting started on my to-do-list... and my guilty pleasure for the day will be watching ESPN to see what the Bronco's final seed will be into the big dance...
