Yookwi and I took a belly dancing class this morning. Yes, belly dancing. We're taking a pilates class at Gonzaga and our teacher had some free passes for us to do classes at the YMCA, so we thought the belly dancing sounded fun. It was pretty amusing and I liked the music. It was a lot of shaking our hips around. XD I think I did fairly well ( Read more... )

"This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy ( Read more... )

"I am interviewing my new outpatient, Lisa, a fidgety young woman with darting eyes that avoid contact with my own. She perches on the edge of her seat, seemingly ready to bolt, her left leg jiggling fervently as she describes to me the circumstances leading up to her most recent psychiatric hospitalization ( Read more... )

I'm in my new house now. ^_^ It's very nice. Plus right now I have two kitties lounging on my bed, so that makes it even nicer. My room is a little small, though, and is being consumed by the queen size futon I'm using for my bed. The closet rod needs to be fixed too, so I currently can't hang up my clothes, which is a bummer. ^^;; So I'm ( Read more... )

Alright, I've got almost everything packed and ready to go, except my desk and computer. So, I'm going to attempt to disassemble those now. If all goes well I imagine I'll be back online tonight or tomorrow as Sara has wireless internet... If I am not online then assume something went wrong with moving and who knows when I'll be back. XD Feel ( Read more... )

I simply cannot find myself System of a Down "Mezmerize" CD! I have all my other SOAD CDs here in Spokane with me, but I'm not sure what happened to that one. I've had an urge to listen to it lately, so I went and downloaded it through a program Gonzaga is a member of and will survive for now... But I don't suppose I loaned that CD to anyone and ( Read more... )

For those of you who don't know, I'm back in Spokane now. ^^;; I need to post in my journal more... I flew back yesterday. The flight went okay, although the no liquids rule was annoying. My ears were killing me too because I came down with a cold on Monday. I just really hope I don't have an ear infection. It would be fitting, though. I had ( Read more... )

Hey local folks - I'm thinking of having a garage sale on August 19th. Would anyone like to be a part of it to sell some of your stuff? I can always do it a different day if the 19th doesn't work for people. I leave for Spokane on August 30th. Thanks!

Is it strange that I'm missing two different sex toy parties that my grad school classmates are throwing this summer..?

Counselors gone wild! Woo-hoo! XD

As some have already posted, Aurora Con was on Friday. It was Alaska's first anime con. I thought I'd never see the day that Alaska would have an anime con! It was a decent size too, although I felt a bit like an old lady as most of the attendees were teenagers. The con was rather unorganized and the judges were difficult to round up for the ( Read more... )
