Shems is an amazing dancer, a wonderfully talented and witty woman, and a fellow recovering skateboard punk.

A spot for complimenting & harryingMay 29, 2007
Shems is this cool punk rock skater chick I know. She also wants to be a bellydancer or something like that. I have to keep telling her not to put sequins and beads on her skateboard...

I like it when the drum roll is 10 minutes long, and her tummy is too tired to shimmy anymore, so the grabs it with her hands and jiggles it.
The show must go on. April 3, 2006
Wow. Wow. Wow.
I had known from taking classes alongside Shems that she could teach me some things. Then I saw her perform at the 5 Seasons yesterday. Wow. Shems, you have musicality. You have variety. You have wicked skill. I was noting just how many different moves, good moves were packed into a dance, yet you did not exhaust the eye; the moves all flowed as though you were channeling the music through yourself. Your dance was an ever shifting feast of loveliness. Your prowess with props was beautiful and impressive as well, and the whole experience was fun. Sometimes I see a dancer that makes me want to hang up my bra and belt because of some sort of remote perfection that leaves me empty. Your performance did not do that- it left me feeling happy, hopeful, and eager to improve my own dancing. Nina Amaya

about me
Ever see that part of Riply's beleive it or not where the guy is walking down a hallway on a diagnal like gravity just went a little screwy? I'm sure it was just a camera trick or something, but that's generally how I feel my life goes, not too bad, but gravity doesn't always seem to be pulling me in the right direction.

Hope seems to be in the air a lot these days. We elected Barack Obama here in the US, a black man with a Muslim name in a country with a history of slavery and segregation and anti-Muslim feeling. A timetable has been set to pull out of an unpopular Iraq war. Global warming and environmental change is finally starting to look like an international priority, including at long last, in the USA. But the signs are both large and small, and sometimes the small ones are the most meaningful. F...
