Who am I again?

Gender
Female
Age
29
Location
about me
So, like many people on here, I also have a MySpace (www.myspace.com/ladyvamp143) come find me there, too!!

Just a bit about myself...

I'm a Virgo with a Libra Moon and Scorpio Rising... So, basically, I'm always at odds with myself... I have a slightly critical, puritanical side who is always seeking to be pure and true... and a dirty deviant side who wants to shake things up and instigate naughtiness everywhere she goes... Poor poor Libra Moon, stuck with the task of keeping me balanced all the time...
Mercury's in Leo, so I'm super opinionated and NEED to express myself ALOT... And there is a little bit of a rock star in me dying to come out... (raq star??) ;)
Venus and Mars are both in Libra, so I am romantic and mushy and affectionate and a tad indecisive... okay, maybe more than a tad... and always try to be fair and just in my life...
That's the basics...

So, who am I, then? Well, it depends on who you ask... To some, I'm Christina... to others, I'm Medea... Pick one, I'll answer to either... Where am I from? Well, I was hatched from an egg under a fruit tree in Eastern Washington and then bred by wild amazon circus monkeys over here in the grand Pacific NW...

I've traveled a smidge, but not nearly enough... I like to dress-up, I like to play with my food, I suck at meditating, and I use humor to ease tense situations..

I like to think of myself as an artist sometimes...I might be an idiot without the savant, tho...besides dance, I paint alittle, take pics alittle...and would love to someday own a dance studio/gallery/cafe thang...

I'm really close to my family...fortunately and unfortunately...I see most of 'em often...


I work at a library...been there for 10 1/2 years...still dig it, but need to get on that gallery/dance studio/healing center thang..

I'm kinda nutty, but I've been told it's endearing...a tad opinionated...but well-intended and warm hearted...

My Blog

Live with integrity. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Life's too short to fuck around. Be certain of what you feel, don't just accept it at face value and react. Dig deeper. Live without regret. If you make a bad decision, do it consciously. It is YOUR life and only you can make those mistakes, so own up to it, or just stop making them in the first place. Be fully present and in the moment at all times. Breathe in every experience with all the senses. Be a tactile creature. Make eye c... read more

I have decided to take a break from my dance mania and hibernate for the winter...like a belly dance teddy bear of sorts...if you will...

I am planning a 3-month hiatus where I can focus on other things besides dance (is there anything else in the world?!? yes.)... So there will NOT be any more classes or performances til February at the earliest...Including the show on Dec 3rd at the Pyramid Lounge...I had to cancel that because I injured my back last weekend and won't be able to dance... read more

So, I've been on this little mission... I've been reading a ton and writing a ton and meditating a ton... In the attempt to clear my head, expell some demons and fill myself with love, faith and spirituality...

I've been dealing with a lot of change..alot of challenging situations...some self-doubt, reflection and inward-examination... I've been in search of some answers to some very intense questions I've been asking...about myself, the people in my life and the world at large...

N... read more

...or, 'Who the hell do you think you are?'

So, along with all the fabulosity that transpired last night, there was also a little sadness and disappointment that occured as well... Let me explain:

Everytime I throw/go to a party, I learn more and more about my friends & acquaintences... I get to see who the crazy ones are, who the happy drunks are, who the fighters are, who the super generous ones are, who the funny ones are, who the quiet ones are, etc etc etc... And along with the goo... read more
