about me
I'm a crazy gypsy who loves to run barefoot through fields, sing till I give myself a migraine, and dance till I pretty much drop.
I believe in peace, love, and acting like a kid no matter how old you get. We are only here a short time so why not enjoy it while we can?
I'm a woman with a mission, so watch out world, and if you hurt those I love you're in for trouble ;0)
While I can at first appear more quiet and reserved, get to know me, and you'll be sorry (jk! well, at least I hope I am...)
I *strongly* dislike people who are hypocrites, fakes, preppies, drama queens, and liars. I can't stand drama and will have nothing to do with it. I will stand by those I care about no matter what, and I HATE saying goodbye.
I believe that hard work and perseverance pay off; I will work hard for what I truly want and know (though it may take awhile) I will one day get it. When things get rough you just have to "keep on keeping on", and you'll find that light at the end of the tunnel.
I am a dancer, choreographer, and dance teacher; Level One certified through the Dance Masters of America, Inc.(Teachers' Training School at the State University of New York.) I am currently training with them and working towards Level 4 certification and DMA membership. I hope to one day open my own studio to share my passion for music and dance, to further pass on the beautiful ancient art of bellydance and other ancient dance forms, and to find new creative ways to teach more modern western dance (jazz, hip hop, modern, etc), as well as Creative Movement classes for kids.
I'm also on myspace- www.myspace.com/celticgypsydance

Awesome Weekend :0)
(blog entry)
Kate and I drove down to the Cape Friday night and spent most of the weekend with the guys. Went on a 14-mile bike ride Saturday; needless to say [after not having been on a bike for a year] our rear-ends HURT LIKE HELL.
Lol, the last 7 miles wer...

VA Tragedy

My heart goes out to all those effected by the horrible tragedy today at the VA tech.

Underwater in NH
(blog entry)
Here’s a pic of where I teach dance, and was supposed to tonight. Obviously that didn't happen, unless I wished to go swimming.
In the last 24 hours we’ve gotten over 5 inches of rain. (It started as snow yesterday, but soon turned into torren...

Going out West
(blog entry)
I'm leaving early tomorrow morning for Missouri to visit my sister and best friend- whom I haven't seen in months. (I miss her so much!) She has a few days off from school so I'm going to spend the Easter holiday with her. I return home late Tuesd...

Lol, the last 7 miles were torture just for that reason :0)
When it got dark we attempted a game of frisbee (the frisbee was lit up- so that was fun) Ha ha we couldn't see anyone. Very amusing, and would've been more so had we all had drinks first. LOL
Next time we have ...

What a disgusting, horrific thing…there are no words to describe…
It fills me with an intense sadness when I think of what all their families are now going through.
I pray for all those involved, and all those families, and that all our VA friends (and our VA faire family) out there are safe. As of yet, there is no way of knowing who may be directly affected (at least not from here in NH).
Makes me ...

Here’s a pic of where I teach dance, and was supposed to tonight. Obviously that didn't happen, unless I wished to go swimming.
In the last 24 hours we’ve gotten over 5 inches of rain. (It started as snow yesterday, but soon turned into torrential rain-and kept on raining). We’ve dealt with flooding before, but it’s never been this bad near where I live.
You can kind of see in the pic (believe me, it’s much more impressive in person) how high the water is. The parking lot is basically ...

I'm leaving early tomorrow morning for Missouri to visit my sister and best friend- whom I haven't seen in months. (I miss her so much!) She has a few days off from school so I'm going to spend the Easter holiday with her. I return home late Tuesday night.
So, I have a little vacation from school and all. And, I've never gone this far out west before actually. So someplace new to see ;0)
Though my flight leaves EARLY tomorrow morning (6 am)...Will need lots of coffee...
I won't be able t...
