hello kiddies,
i went to the japanese bon dance i go to every year yesterday. i really didnt know what the point behind a bon dance was until yesterday, when my frined explained it to me. seeing as its the time inwhich the spirits come to visit, its a time to like be happy and dance and show that your ancestors that all is well and jolly. i think thats the gist of it....
the moon had shown through the clouds during the dance; it was all very enchanting....it was tons of fun to get my groove on at the bon dance and watching how funny my friends and i looked ridiculousin comparison to the really good dancers haha....o well, it was all in good fun. its times like that that i really wanna have a digital camera.....yah so we danced pretty well, the dances arent too hard to pick up, you just have to watch the people who know what theyre doing a couple of go-rounds and *poof* your a dance machine! well somethin like that....im pretty sure my ancestors were pretty proud :)
gah i so wanna visit japan again....school starts in 25 days, and for like the frist time in my life, im not looking forward to it....o well, one more year till college, and then after that, work, and then death...how peachy; i definitely gotta get out, i think ill go surfing tomorrow or something to relax my nerves s'more...
btw, i just found out about this british band called skunk anansie, and from what ive heard so far theyre pretty hot...check them out!
hey diddle diddle beatrix kiddo...
"now its time i burn...this is how i burn..."
