I haven't been on tribe in a while. Partially because my computer was in the shop (0h n0es!) and partially because TRIBE SUCKS for being down all the time for maintenance. But I'm not complaining.
Hooping wise, I feel like I've hit a plateau. I've read about them and tried to relate, but until lately I haven't truly been able to. I feel like up until this point, I've been growing and learning everytime I pick up the hoop. Now its like I begin to get (GHASP!) bored after a few minutes of fooling around. I don't know. I think it may just be some pre-menstrual funk I'm in, or maybe that whole breakup thing. Who knows. I'm just hoping in the warmer weeks ahead I continue to grow/evolve. I know theres alot of things I need to work on.
Bleh.
I don't know.
In other news, I cleaned my apartment today. THIS IS A HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR ME. So far this semester I've been studying, working and sleeping all the time. I haven't had a few minutes to do dishes, vacuum, blah blah. Well I have, but I've been too tired. I don't know where I'm going with this.
I guess I'll look on the internet for images not related to this post for use as an uploaded picture that shows up on my blog.
I'm tired.

I can no longer contain my excitement(/fear/happiness/nervousness)
I just booked my first paying hula hooping gig.
I will be dancing to a 45 minute DJ set (I've heard some of his stuff, I could totally dig his stuff)
And I'll be getting paid $50. Thats like, more than a dollar per minute. More like $1.11/minute
Anyhow, I'm excited. Its December 6th.
I'll be with Global Crash.
And its funny because a few of the band members of The Ghost of Otis used to live next door to my pops in SK.
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
the end

WITH FIRE FANS. Oh man. I had heard about them before but hadn't really done much research. SO FUCKING COOL (pardon my french). I noticed alot of poi-ish moves so I'm gonna ask my boyfriend to start teaching me some gnarly tricks and hopefully if I'm good enough by the end of the summer, I want to get a pair of fans.
They're just so beautiful.
Fo reelz.

So I've been thinking about holding some sort of hooping class at my community building. I called them just out of curiosity and I found out its $25 to rent PER HOUR. Um, cheap much? Plus I think they take a small percentage of admission. But whatever. It wouldn't be a super hooping class/workshop type thing, mainly because I'm really not <i>that</i> good, and also because I'd be expecting alot of elderly people who want a mild exercise. Hopefully I can pull in some high school peoples. I just figured it'd be a great idea because I don't know ANYONE in Southern RI that hoops. I mean I owe it to the people that taught me stuff to spread the FUN of hooping.
Who knows, maybe it could turn out well.

w00t! I finally got around to creating a collapsible hoop. Its pretty ill. Its brown, orange, yellow and silver. Its the kind that folds down into two cirlcles. Its pretty durable as far as I can tell but I'm going to test it out once I find a place around URI that I can hardcore test it out in (happy hardcore hooping!!!)
Chyeah!
I'm pretty souped.
