Well i need someone to hold me But i'll wait for something more Yes i've got to have faith ~ george michael We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. ~Joseph Campbell the only thing certain in life is that nothing is certain.

born to dance

*image by oude school I took in a performance of the ballet this weekend with my mom and sisters, and it was beautiful. The stretch and extension of their arms and legs, both delicate and powerful, made me feel envious, and little sad that I didn't continue to dance. The intricate footwork, definition of their calves, and the ease with which the male dancers lift the female dancers in the air left me in awe. It was a refined ending to a crazy weekend that started off Thursday with Atomic 80s new wave dance party @ the blank club Peter, his friend nikki, and I, got the party started, and tore up the dance floor for 3 solid hours. Friday it was darts at trials pub with kyle after he finished up a critical mass bike ride. those seem like fun, but i am bikeless and horribly out of shape. list of things to do 1. buy bike 2. used sed bike to get in good enough shape for critical mass 3. become semi-professional dancer after getting in shape by going on many a critical mass bike ride.

For a film with a seemingly broad concept and vague plotline, there are certainly moments of quiet beauty not to be missed. with one weeke

at least once a year, i do something drastic to my hair. i have been mulling over what is next for some time now. first i wanted to go super blonde, then i tried on a platinum wig, and put the kibosh on that. then i was thinking stawberry blonde with some platinum highlights. then i was looking at old pics when my hair was auburn. then came Halloween. A last minute costume change put the wig above on my head..and i kinda liked it. my hair is already pretty much cut like that, too....i'm just not sure i'm ready to commit to something so drastic, that's why wigs are so great. the roomie and me have been bonding over old episodes of queer as folk i own seasons 1 & 2, and i've seen all 5 seasons multiple times, but she had never seen it. We've been watching a couple of episodes a night, and it never fails to become addictive.

Flower Drum Song and Dance

It was a whirlwind weekend of work and play, complete with Halloween dance party, laundry duty, and selling tickets for, as well as taking in, a performance of the fantastic, flower drum song . On sunday night, i met the super dreamy Paolo Montalban who plays to lead, and also played the Prince to Brandy's cinderella on tv in 1997. He was super sweet, and though I was able to keep it together while talking to him, I instantly turned into a giggly school girl when he left to go backstage. So another monday rears it's ugly head, and there is only one way to keep it from sucking the life out of me : music!
