you are probably tired of hearing about it already but damnit!!! i wish it was tuesday.. this means id be on my last couple of hours before i left las vegas for california and the awesomeness of tribal fest. i just cant wait... i need some time away.. i need a recharge... i need a reminder of exactly why im on this earth.... to dance. Dance has been the light in my darkest hours. no matter whats going on in my life if im on the floor performing or just messing around in my room im at my happiest. the feeling i get when the music startsis indiscribable. i transform. I AM DANCE. Im not just dancing to the music.. i dance from the music i let it move me. thats why i think i improv so much... i feel when i choreo i dont really feel the music... as much... dance is my drug, my love,my passion,my obsession,my comfort, my light. you know when you just KNOW you were ment for something... that is me and dance... i just wished my parents could have helped me achive my dream a bit younger. i honestly feel i could have been an awesome hip hop dancer. it's what i wanted to do for a long time. so in the future i want to take at least one dance class a year..on a regular weekly basis. something i have never done before... but im gonna start with yoga 1st and foremost....but back to TF. i cant wait to be back in the sleepy town of Sebastopol. this little town that for one week out of the year has bellydancers everywhere you turn... it's amazing to see. last year i didnt have such a good time there because of some mix up with the promoters and a case of mistaken identity. one of the promoters appologized to me in february because they had realized who i was and remembered what had happend. so i decided to give it another chance. thankfully every year i have gone to TF i have performed. last year we got an amazing spot in the line up and we were sort of hoping for a similar spot this year but it didnt happen... it's ok.. TABU IS PERFORMING AT 12:07PM ON SATURDAY!!!!!!!! please come see our performance you wont be sorry.. AGAIN TABU IS PERFORMING AT 12:07PM ON SATURDAY...... i cant wait to be in the california sun... i need a vacation and this year i ACTUALLY have some spending cash!!!!! WOOT! and my birthday is three days after i get back from TF yay!!! happy early birthday to me!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey sweetie! Nobody should be tired of hearing about anything you write....this is YOUR blog. That means you get to write whatever you want and if anybody has a problem with it, they need to go to your homepage and press that "remove friend" button!

Have an awesome time at TF! Be good, stay safe, and have a great time!

You are a beautiful spirit....you are music! It gives me so much joy to watch you perform...(the YouTube is worn out,grin). This does not come from technical training, it comes from the depth of the soul. It is a rare gift...age will have nothing to do with it. It is yours to share. You could never keep this to yourself! So glad you have chosen to give by performing!

Bounce Bounce Bounce! I can't wait to see you.

Envious tho I am. I am missing dance in my life right now and I feel very lost and stagnant. I am wishing you and your tribe all the luck in the world.
