SHAMELESS PROMOTIONS
if you’re in the buffalo area, come see buffalo contemporary dance tomorrow @ 8pm, sunday @ 2pm or next weekend, same times. if you prefer theater, come see city of angels @ UB (nov. 14-18) – i am responsible for the thunder noises in the 2nd act. so it will sort of be like i’m there. and if you want even more dance – come see me dance in zodiaque studio ensemble nov. 29-dec. 2. <>

and now a cat picture.

day seven. happy wednesday. November 7, 2007

so it hasn’t even been a whole week and i’m already b*tching. this upcoming week is going to be pretty busy due to various commitments, dance things, etc, but i will do my best to keep my post-a-day commitment. forgive me if they are short.

if you’re in the western ny area and want to see me dance, i am performing this weekend and next with buffalo contemporary dance. one of our professors is in the company, so she is showcasing her choreography with the other dancers. pretty exciting. if you like dance and stuff.

and since all that was overly serious, here is something for you to think about: the phrase “Polterwang”. brought to you by the girls over at gofugyourself.

stella says hi September 27, 2007

once again, i’m feeling lazy, so this entry will be mostly pictures and un-ordered lists (remember that from mgs351? -, etc). ok i lied, these are mostly little blurbs rather than lists. and the one list is ordered… its numbered. and no pictures. whatever. i should have just deleted and re-written the first sentence, but instead i just keep writing. wow.

IN OTHER NEWS
my contacts are really messed up so i often have to take one out in the middle of the day (usually while on campus). this has resulted in much one-eyed driving and many more headaches than necessary. i don’t really know what to do since… well i just don’t know what to do. i guess i could call my optometrist. nah.

i am performing tomorrow night (well tonight since its now 1am) at the CFA in a poetry collaboration project. thing. with dancers. and poetry. and weirdness. at least our dance has music… some of the pieces are just people reading a poem and dancers dancing. i’m not autistic artistic enough for those type of performances. i would probably just giggle. i guess i’m not mature enough.

PODCASTS I HAVE BEEN ENJOYING LATELY
i have recently discovered the majesty of podcasts. i have always detested them based on their name alone, i thought they were stupid because they were another corny mutation of iGhey slash Apple/Mac lingo. but now i have fully embraced their corniness (and free of chargeness) and am now a believer. i have seen the light.

so for all of you (equal: no one) who also enjoy podcasts, i will list the ones that i have found particularly interesting. they are all based around my driving habits since that is when i listen to them. because i’m a huge dork and like to listen to audiobook-ish things. apparently the parental-o-meter from last entry didn’t gauge horrible interests because then i would totally be kenzilla. audiobooks and all. (oooh unordered list!!! see i didnt lie)

• Grammar Girl – because haven’t you ever wondered if the past tense of hang is hanged or hung?? (see episode 34) her episodes are short and sweet, meaning i can listen to a whole one from the CFA to Hadley (about 4-5 minutes)
• NPR: Selected Shorts – because i like stories. each episode generally has two to three short stories, usually one contemporary and one not-so much. i usually like the first story better, but maybe it has something to do with my attention span. i listen to these from my aparment to north campus (about 15-20 minutes per story).
• Savage Lovecast – because dan savage cuts through the bullshit and tells a-holes when they’re being a-holes, etc. and i enjoy listening to him cut people down. i am evil. these usually take two trips (to north and back, or to pilates and then to north)

those are three that i’m sold on for now. i will let you know when i like a new one. cause i know you’re waiting with baited breath. ooh podcast. so sexy. and now a random cat picture because i said i didn’t have pictures and now aren’t you surprised?

okbye.
