about me
I just got my MA in Arabic and Islamic Studies. I'm a retired roller girl with almost two years of beating other women up on the rink. I'm also an aspiring burlesque performer and hoop dancer. Oh and I also dig in the dirt for a living (a.k.a an archaeologist).

I'm back! (blog entry) I've been off of tribe for MONTHS. I completely lost track of myself and why I started hooping in the first place. Now that I'm moving to a peaceful little town in Northern Arizona (my husband and I are splitting) I've realized that I want to re... read more

A little catch up... (blog entry) A lot has changed since my last entry. I've quit roller derby (yes...but it served it's purpose in my life and now I have more time to hoop!) and finished writing my thesis. I defend the beast on Thursday (day after tomorrow) and I haven't the s... read more

I'm a hoopin' fool (blog entry) I actually got up on stage last night at the Surly Wench and hooped in between the first and second act for Black Cherry Burlesque. I'm not that great...only been doing it for a few months but people are amazed by hooping.
It was just what I nee... read more

Welcome to the Grand Canyon State! (blog entry) So the Border Patrol is pissed about this on YouTube so don't be surprised if it disappears, but I thought it was hilarious.
Strangely enough...BP does NOT have dashboard cameras...where'd the video come from? Hmmm....ah well...ENJOY!!!

Humbing moments... (blog entry) So I've only been hooping a week...and I'm already frustrated. I keep reminding myself it's like roller derby: it took me MONTHS to get to the point where I could skate and take/give hits, etc. And I'm still learning. I watch all these folks' v... read more

My Blog

I've been off of tribe for MONTHS. I completely lost track of myself and why I started hooping in the first place. Now that I'm moving to a peaceful little town in Northern Arizona (my husband and I are splitting) I've realized that I want to reconnect with hooping and get back in touch with what made me fall in love with it in the first place.

I really need to find myself and I know I'm somewhere in my hoop.

xoxo

A lot has changed since my last entry. I've quit roller derby (yes...but it served it's purpose in my life and now I have more time to hoop!) and finished writing my thesis. I defend the beast on Thursday (day after tomorrow) and I haven't the slightest idea what I'm doing. My advisor is out of town and has not checked her email, hence no answer on exactly HOW I'm going to defend. Anyway, I had my first hoop performance (first official one) on World Hoop Day last Saturday during a show. ... read more

It was just what I needed to get my practice back on track. I've been so busy working out of town and with my thesis, that I've neglected practicing somewhat. But after last night and how much more I want to improve...I'm back on! Now I just gotta find time...can't wai... read more

So I've only been hooping a week...and I'm already frustrated. I keep reminding myself it's like roller derby: it took me MONTHS to get to the point where I could skate and take/give hits, etc. And I'm still learning. I watch all these folks' videos and they make it look effortless. Then I go try something and I flub it, get frustrated...and sulk. haha. It just goes to show that at 27, I'm still learning how to be OK with not being the best at everything. When I was growing up, if I wa... read more
