Four

Insane day. After dialogues finished at midnight last night, Bikram decided to show us a Bollywood movie. Then lectured for an hour. We ended up back in our rooms a little after 4 in the morning, only to pass out in bed and wake up three hours later for our morning class.

Emmy Cleaves taught this morning. What an inspiring and incredible teacher, I wouldn't have expected anything less from his Senior teacher. I just wish I wasn't so darn stiff and sleep-deprived to do all the postures and properly enjoy the class.

Half Moon continued in the afternoon followed by another class taught by Bikram himself. I think I'm getting the hang of this system. For the first time, I was actually able to take his class, actually practice, and fully enjoy him for who he is and what he does. I felt like for the first time at this training, I was actually able to be present, or as present as I could ever be running off of three hours of sleep.

Treated ourselves to Thai food today as a little gift. That and our mini-fridge is running a little low. So far so good. Now off to our evening dialogue clinic for more Half Moon and most probably Bikram's first official lecture. I just hope he doesn't hold us till 4 again, otherwise I just might be in bits and pieces tomorrow.
