movement in LIQUID

[Adam Frost]

Yes, I realize that it isn't exactly the way that Cherie is doing it  
in the video. It was after seeing the video once, and then I thinking  
of how to write that sign. I noticed that when I was looking at how I  
was signing it, my arms did not travel right or left. I didn't realize  
that I was signing it differently then what I had just seen Cherie do  
yesterday. And think that the wavy arrows match that movement well. I  
guess now I am just wondering how it would be best to write this  
movement. :-)
