The Macarena


Man! This is so uncanny!


This idle mind was thinking of what to blog this Monday morning.........

thinking.......

thinking.......

*sips some tea for inspiration*

and finally decided to go and see if Blogthings have any interesting new quizzes.

I found this topic and went on to answer the few questions as honestly as I could remember.

And wallah! it's the Macarena.



Your 1996 Theme Song Is: Macarena by Los Del Rio



When I dance they call me macarena

And the boys, they say that I'm buena

They all want me, they can't have me

So they all come and dance beside me

What's Your 1996 Theme Song?


Let me explain.

1996 was certainly the beginning of a different tomorrow for me. I had spent years before hiding in my little 'safe' world. I lived a straight and narrow life and my entire existence centered around my family and church activities. Before some of you start to throw sticks and stones at me, let me say there is nothing wrong with that. It is what probably what the majority of women are doing today. But underneath all that calm were strong undercurrents that were slowly eroding away all the security that I have ever known in my life up till then. Only I knew the heartbreak within. I needed to freak out and break away.

I did the Macarena. Really.

I went to a local dance club with some friends (something I had never done before then) and when the DJ played the song Macarena, my friends dragged me onto the dance floor and the group of us did the Macarena together. I wasn't sure of the steps but suddenly the shy and straight-as-an-arrow Bkworm danced the night away. A lot of things happened after that night.


I really wish I could go into the details but they are just too torrid and hey, it's the past.

Why don't you go and try out the quiz and see if your answers will bring you the song that had meant something to you back in 1996?
