Unhappy at work

Kiki — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 18:16:48 GMT

Dear all, This post will be sad...unfortunately....I am not happy at my work. Im in a new team and i just dont know nothing...i feel so small..everyone is doing their thing and they are experts at it and I dont know what the hell they are all doing...When I ask for help, they kindly do so but I wanna get on with it myself..I feel stupid when I always pop the question " Ehm, could you help me please?" or "Could you please take a look?"....feel helpless...Feel like partying after I leav my desk everyday at 5 pm and feeling like crying when I have to get out of the house by 7:20 every morning....what should I do? Quit? NO! I just got the new job? Dont know what to do. Wish me luck! Love&Light! Kiki

Too fat for Bellydance?

Kiki — Sun, 23 Sep 2007 19:38:27 GMT

A week ago, an iraquian singer and drummer told me that my dancing is fine but that it would be much better if I would loose more weight...In other words...im too fat to do Bellydance.....My first inner reaction was " You motherf****!!!!What the f*** do u know about BD?!?!?!" but then later on i thought about it and like...most of the dancers are slim...i mean look at Arbee, Sharon K, Zoe, Sashi etc etc... is there a line where you must say " I am too fat for bellydancing!" ? What do u think?

I´m an Ewok!!

Today I was thinking about Mata Hari. She is one of my idols. This woman was so goddamn strong and I wish I had just a little bitty of her strengh to go through this rough life...

Here´s a list og 10 strong and influencial woman from our history (real and fictional) that I admire... 1) Mata Hari 2) Ofra Haza 3) Rachel Brice 4) Amy Sigil 5) Aaliyah 6) The Bride aka Beatrix Kiddo (Kill Bill) 7) Gia Mariah Carangi 8) Anastacia 9) Anna Leonowens (Anna and the king) 10) Rosa Parks

Horrid night

Kiki — Sun, 24 Jun 2007 08:40:21 GMT

Ok, well, here´s something a little bit more private about my life....me and my dad were always very very close...He was an artist and lived a bohemian life and inspired me in a lot of things...We had this small ritual everytime i had a big test in school or something huge ahead of me...He painted me some picture of some flowers, animals etc. and I remember this one time he painted a realy nice picture with the detailed cut through a human heart with me sitting inside. He wrote a message under it: " Last night, I couldn´t sleep...was sitting in the dark and had to think about my mom and dad and all the beautifull people that had passed away from me and I realized that the only one I have in my heart left is you..." Back then it was just another beautifull message from my dad to me. But last night I found myself in the exact same situation like my dad...Couldnt sleep, was sitting in the dark and had to think about my awesome dad that passed and my doggie "Bobbie" who passed away too and I realized that now, years later after I got the message, I finally understand how my dad felt that night...MISS YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!

But I hope I wont screw up totalyy:-S ..well, we´ll see....the rest of my day, after getting home from work, I was basically working on my costumes, doing some nice little tufts and tassels for my belt and sewing small coins to my bra and skirt....would never say how much fun sewing is:-) Ok, its 10 pm so im off to "BEDfortshire":-) good night all my fellow bellydancers all around the world!
