Amber — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 18:54:45 GMT

Today my heart is filled with much love and gratitude. Last night was my first solo performance and I recieved so much love and support last night that my heart if filled to the brimm. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the support. I really am greatful. To Folk Infusion, thank you for having such a great event that I could come participate in and all the cheering. To Jewels of the North, I love you girls, I am so thankful to have such a great troupe that are also friends To nanSee, Shala (sorry if spelt wrong), Fajara and Heather: thank you for the supportive words and cheers. Dy, thanks for the rum. I sooo needed that. To those I didn't list, Sorry I forgot you by name, but thank you for the support and cheers. If someone had told me 4 years ago that I would be bellydancing, part of a supportive and caring community, and do a solo dance I would have laughed at them. So to my friend Melanie that introduced me to the dance a deep thank you for introducing me to a community that is sooo right for sooo many reasons.

So, I am coming here to get some help. I would like to hear your stories on how you got your bellydance name to help inspire me. Or, if you know a really good site for names maybe you can give me the link. Thanks for any help, Amber

Flakey people suck!!!

Amber — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 08:43:42 GMT

I can't stand people that commite to things then don't follow through. Especially, when they flake because of someone else's opinion and not their own. Lemmings suck!!!
