What they say...

August 6, 2007
Darlina saved my life this past weekend. I almost made a very, very stupid decision. I don't think she knows how close I came to, well, not being able to write a testimonial now or any time in the near future. So I just want to thank her for being so rad. A small gesture for a woman with such a big heart.

Darlina, thank you for your comforting and motivating words. You are one of the biggest reasons why I continue to show up to class. I have learned so much from you and I know there is even more to learn. Thankfully, you are not only an inspiring teacher but a friend as well. Only the fungiest sushi can keep me away LOL. It has been a pleasure and an honor being your student and I will continue to be as long as you will have me. Love you bunches, Mary.

If Darlina only lived in New Orleans we'd be making babies right this minute. No, really, like right now. Yep. Or at the very least out dancing somewhere, me kinda tipsy, she not so much but that's cool because I need a designated driver for later. But alas, no such fortune. So I will sing the blues instead.

Darlina is an amazing person! She is beautiful and talented and she'll rock your socks off with her poetry. She's a bellydancing wordsmith of truth with a smile that lights up the world, and I'm so glad I met her!

Darlina is one of only, hmm, three souls I met online from whom I don't mind and even enjoy a phone call from between midnight and sunrise (whether I be drunk, sleeping, writing or stressed over bills and bull). Her poetry intrigues me, her hips inspire me, her laugh makes me smile, conversations flow with ease and I'm sure our hypothetical babies would be the paradigm of fly.

Darlina is super sweet, friendly and a perfect example of how awesome a tribe friend can be. Girl, seriously, I hope someday we meet in person!

She's a regular chatter box with a heart as big as texas and though alot is usually on her mind, she always manages to put a smile on her face. She's respectful and honest and hard working. She networks like a madman and with her around, there's never a dull moment. If you have not seen girlfriend dance, you really should coz she 's got the best hips I've seen this side of the border!!! is an awesome teacher too. Oh yeah...and she's as cute a a button!!!! I mean, just look at her! Cute I tells you!

She's such an awesome dancer and an awesome person...not to mention she does this cute hop thingy when she gets super excited about something! Too cute!!

A Soul Mate to Her Harem

This past Tuesday I saw the Hip Hop artist Brother Ali perform for my third time. The first time I ever saw him it was an accident. He was opening up for the Living Legends in 2003. I had no idea who he was. He came out on the stage and started with a spoken word peice that is a song on his album "Shadows on the Sun." It started..."You're going through this because you're special, not the super star type I mean the gods are gonna test you." I cried guys. I cried at his words. Since th... read more

Great news people! El Paso's own Saz'hrah will be giving a fire safety workshop here in EP! The date is not set in stone yet, but she is thinking about May 24th. For those that are interested check out her tribe.net profile for more details. She needs all the feedback she can get on the date, so let her know if May 24th is a good idea. Support El Paso's dance and fire arts community. Let's get it started people!

Aside from my usual list of women that kick ass...Oprah, Bjork, Lauren Hill, Rachel Brice, Zoe Jakes, Sharon Kihara, Ciara, and many more, I have found a new hero!

On Friday we took our first break dance lesson ever. It was so much fun! Being that I've been involved in hip hop so much growing up, break dancing is something I've wanted to learn my whole life. I'd been to a few competitions and junctions to watch. I think it's such an amazing dance form. And not just the acrobatic par... read more

Every Sunday night I like to end my weekend with some good kareoke. There's a bar called Maverick's that is one of my favorite hang out spots. My friends run the kareoke show on Sundays so I'm always there. I think kareoke is so fun because you're aloud to sound like shit to your favorite song. It's great. There's always a lot of singers and my friend, Ryan, is an excellent host. He's really funny and plays really great music videos in between the singers.

I like to put on a good s... read more
