When Jillina swept onto the stage and winked at me, I almost jumped out of my seat. I have mixed feelings about the Belly Dance Superstars, but in that moment, I felt like a star-struck fan: the Jillina just winked at me!

It wasn't until I got home that I realized that she couldn't possibly have singled me out. I danced on that very stage three years earlier; you can't see any faces in the crowd when the stage lights are on.

And then it hit me; she must have been using "up & over" eye contact.
