Look! I'm doing stuff!

Ph.D. core requirements = DONE!! **dances around spazzily** (blog entry) Wow, I made it. One of the hardest semesters of my life, and I totally got B’s! No more physics classes ever (except of course the ones I teach, muah ha ha *evil grin*). It’s actually been an incredibly trying semester, and I’m just happy I sur... read more

about me
I'm a grad student at Purdue, and co-founder of the Purdue club Mirage Bellydancers. I've been dancing for about 15 years (ballet, modern, etc.), and am currently most interested in belly dancing (ATS, Egyptian, Turkish, sword, veil, gypsy, and especially fusion of some sort). My goal is to learn as my styles as I can and fuse them together if possible. Dalia Carella is a big inspiration to me.
Please watch my videos on youtube and give me some feedback!! I want to get better, but it's hard without hearing what you're doing wrong! Don't worry, I can take any criticism, so don't be shy! :)

I'm also very interested in music of all types, physics (and most of science really), politics, movies, etc....

i suck at blogging. have fun.

Wow, I made it. One of the hardest semesters of my life, and I totally got B’s! No more physics classes ever (except of course the ones I teach, muah ha ha *evil grin*). It’s actually been an incredibly trying semester, and I’m just happy I survived. My joints have really taken a turn for the worse in the past few months, and it’s been really scary. It seems like just when I think things can’t get much worse, they do with a vengeance. I guess I’m experiencing another ‘loosening’, which... read more
