The Complete Idiot's Guide To Clapping By Julia

Julia just learned how to clap & so now she feels she is an expert. In case you don't want to go out & buy her new book I have included the main highlights:

Step 1- Extend arms fully as if to spell out the letter "t" with your body. (This will help you build up enough force to get a loud sound following step 4).
Step 2- Bring your hand/arms in towards your body, as if you are about to do the robot. Note: This step is a good one to give a little "smirk"...it draws attention & adds a little mystery to the clap.
Step 3-Don't let steps 1 & 2 get you to confused..you are almost done. This is an easy one...just bring the hands a little closer together, however, don't...and I repeat DON'T bring them together just yet. (No smirk needed...just concentrate)
Step 4-You made it! Congratulations. Bring your hands together (as if you were to pray) in a swift motion. If you want to add a little sass to your clap, partially stick your tongue out. Now repeat steps 1-4...over, & over, & over.......

Julia doesn't agree with the part were they say that "there is no wrong way to clap" (I think this is her way to get you to buy her book). She also would like for you to know she doesn't agree with the part that they say "Although clapping is a sign of happiness or in excitement, you don't clap for yourself when being praised or awarded. It shows rudeness and disrespect, like saying "I know I'm great, praise me." As she does quite often clap for herself...

If that got you excited by that (or even got this far reading this entry...:) you may be happy to hear Julia is starting her research for the sequel...The Complete Idiot's Guide To SO BIG...see below.
