Whew. I just got home from my first major b-boy event. It was b-boy night at the Mega Carousel of Festivals, which took place in Marikina River Park, on the floating stage. Although I didn't get to stay for the actual battle (the thing kept being held by rain), we got to spend hours in a breaker's circle. This is the first time I actually felt nervous about b-boying. It was so bad that I couldn't get my styles down. I spent most of my floorwork just doing basic 6-steps. I did get to have a short uprock battle, which was much fun.

I'm tired, not because of b-boying, but probably just because the event was rather stressful. There were around 50 b-boys, form my estimate, and a lot of onlookers. The circle was very crowded and cramped. And it kept raining lightly, just enough to make people seek shelter, and to stop the show at times.

What a day!
