Still Foolin’ ‘Em – At Sea – [12/18/2016]

5501618311_1eeec26185_z_largeSo far this cruise I have had nothing but positive comments, and very enthusiastic students. So much so that I don’t really know what to do with all that enthusiasm. Anyone who knows me knows that as much as I like compliments, I really have no idea what to do with them.

I usually manage a few awkward thank-yous and then try to politely remove myself from the conversation. In truth I’m not used to people liking me this much, not at work anyway. And n the ever present performer’s dilemma, “what if they find out I really have no idea what I’m doing?”

I mean, I do know what I’m doing. But not to the extent that people seem to think I do! I mean, I’m self taught! I trained myself, half the stuff I talk about I didn’t even realize I knew until someone asked me!  I’m an ex-dancer for heaven’s sake, and a writer, and a bookworm! What do I know about computers???

Um…well, apparently considerably more than I used to. If, that is, the people telling me that I’m the best instructor they have had on any cruise they’ve taken are to be believed…

*gulp*
