    I Did It, I Finally Did It!!!!

    I finally did it. I went in last night, haD a few hiccups (I got no instructions whatsoever from the manager), but all turned out okay. I was so nervous about doing it. I could’ve just gotten sick on stage. But it wasn’t as bad as I had expected it to be. After the audition the manager asked if I would stay and work the entire shift 9-3am. So I did. And then I got the job. Most of the girls there were nice to me (I had a few talking about me, but hey, who cares) I thought it was hilarious that one of the girls who I had heard saying my stage name repeatedly and giving nasty looks fell flat on her ass on stage. I laughed on the inside though! Serves her right! Most of the girls were giving me an incredibly hard time about my stage name. They almost had me convinced to change it. But I really like it fits my personality, it’s different, there are a million other girls with this name and I only had a few customers say they didn’t like it. (Lorelei) pronounced Laura – Lie. What do you guys think? Oh well, I like it. I ended up leaving around 2 am before my last set. The manager smiled and said he completely understood. My legs were shaking so badly that I almost couldn’t walk. I told him I would stay if he really wanted me to, but I couldn’t promise him it would look good, lol.

    All in all I had a good time, I got a lot of compliments, I got 2 couch dances and made about 80 dollars. I know that doesn’t sound like much but there were probably only a couple dozen customers there. Most of them were regulars and they seemed to already have a favorite girl. But I worked the room anyway and found a couple that gave me more than ½ of that money. I only had 3 guys turn me down for a dance, and that didn't bother me like I thought it would. I was on cloud 9 and they weren't going to ruin my fun, too many other people were checking me out!!!

    I will be going back in Friday for my next shift. The DJ says he will only be playing fast paced up beat songs on the weekend. He wouldn’t let me pick any of my own songs until my last set (and then only because I said, well your playing them for the other girls?(very nicely though) and by then I was too tired to even get into it. I told him that out of 9 songs he played for me I had only heard 1 before. He played some funky alternative rock for me. It was really hard to dance to music I hadn’t heard before, hard to know whats coming next. But the songs weren’t bad, so if this is his taste I will catch on to them quick.

    I was really pleased with the girls, there were 2 of them that really took me under their wing and gave me a lot of great advice, they even came up to stage for a dance. I thanked them both before I left!

    So I had a blast. I woke up this morning for my day job (with only 4 hours of sleep) and thought to myself, did I really do that??? Or was it a dream Then I got up and my legs and back were aching, ha ha.. Not too bad though, nothing Tylenol didn’t take care of.

    I wanted to post and tell all you girls on SW what great help this website has been. I probably would never have done it had I not found this site.

    Thanks again

    Sorry to be long winded with these?
    Honestly, I’ve been working up to this for almost a year. For me it was all about confidence (or lack of). I chickened out more times than I care to think about. But last night I was there, I just decided it was now or never. I was tired of being worried about doing it. I got changed and saw that I looked just as good as most of the girls and better than some of them. I watched for a while and when they called my name I had to tell my self, come on now, you’re only 10 steps away from stage DO IT NOW!! Next thing ya know I’m up there dancing. It really helped that everyone there knew that I was new, everyone clapped and whistled, which really boosted my confidence. Just remember what everyone tells you on this board ( I really tried) move slowly and move sexy. I’m sure it wasn’t the best performance ever and screamed newbie, but I’ll get better. Oh I also kept using a bit of advice I read somewhere on this board, keep repeating to yourself, “I am ______, I am a sex goddess) Sounds silly but keeps you from thinking about all your insecurities. And the biggest thing that surprised me. I was so worried everyone would be looking at my little pudge or everything about me that I don’t like. But again, as someone said on this board a few days ago, when you get up there don’t see anything except a sexy dancer. By the end of the night I wasn’t even trying to suck in my gut, I was that comfortable. Not that it was bulging out or anything. I was just relaxed and felt extremely sexy just as I was. It was kind of empowering. Having said all that, lol, I am extremely nervous about Friday and Saturday, I heard it’s a whole new set of girls working. And I was told to do more floor work, I tried to and felt like I looked like a fish out of water. So guess what I’m going to be working on tonight?

    This is just something funny, I wore a school girl outfit with black knee high boots, I got them all laced up, took about 10 minutes, looked down and I had put them on the wrong feet!!! Ha ha. I was so glad I caught it before I walked out.

    I am glad you did well. Congrats to you, I know you will be successful. You have the right attitude and a sense of humor. Those things will take you far.


    Don't worry about the other girls.... Sometimes they are just like that you know.

    Awesome, congrats! I'm glad that you did it, and you seem to be having fun.

    BTW, I think LoraLei is an awesome name...it's got so many connotations...it's another name for mythological sirens, as well as Marilyn Monroe in Gentleman Prefer Blondes. I'm sure one day you'll meet a cool custy that'll be tickled pink by it!
