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

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.
