about me

I'm a nursing student who works hard, has a lot of energy to burn, and not enough time to burn it in, heh. I'm studying to be an herbalist. I enjoy being active and healthy, and having fun without the aid of inebriating substances (though I am particularly fond of mead). Hoopdance has become a way of life for me. I am fascinated by trees, the healing arts, and honey bees.

Re: no one came... (in The Hoopers' Journal) I ended up with 16 students in my class last Saturday. What an amazing surprise! I'm blown away that it was such a success. They've requested that I do it weekly, so I'm going to do so for the rest of the summer and see how it goes. On top of ... read more

Re: My BF loves hooping?! (in Hula Hooping) Hehe Jeremiah and I do "partner hooping"... though it is of the most ridiculous nature... I sit on his shoulders and while he knee hoops, I either shoulder hoop or do beam me ups around both of us. I giggle uncontrollably every time.

If you are ever out in the Bloomsburg, PA area... I HIGHLY reccomend that you drive just a bit further north to visit Rickett's Glen.
Wow. What a beautiful, sparkly, magical place.
We spent about 8 hours along the Falls Trail yesterday...
...hunting for mushrooms, toads and neon orange salamanders...
...hooping on top of giant rocks, in the spray of lovely waterfalls, amongst brilliant green ferns...
...swimming in FREEZING (seriously, the water could not have been more than fifty deg... read more

Drum and Splash

What an amazing weekend.

Highlights:

- Arriving at Ewan's farmhouse Thursday night and walking in to hear Gregory Alan Isakov playing on the stereo.

tick tock tick tock...

It is very, very slow at work tonight.
So, I've spent the past 2.5 hours sitting in the breakroom and working on the design for my next tattoo project. It's going to take years, and it's going be extremely painful (rib tattoos! Ouch!) and expensive but most of all BEAUTIFUL.

I've always wanted to go all out Pictish and paint myself up with woad like a Celtic warrior. I've had a suspicion my entire life that in the past I fought naked and wild in tall grasses, wielding a spear with my ... read more
