"Mandala is a Sanskrit word for 'circle', a symbol of wholeness, perfection, unity and eternity… a place where the invisible is made visible."

current obsession:

everything and anything HAIR.

People, when given a chance, Marvelous Melissa, smile, skip, and dance. They create, play, and laugh. They care, share, and love. And the ones who don't, haven't yet realized that chances are something you give yourself.

Double dare you,

The Universe

reasons to be pretty: on broadway

one more thing.

LEGALIZE LOVE.

i believe those t's are brilliant. and to be worn with dignity and respect. everyone deserves the chance to love. and it's not up to media, politics, myself or you to say who we can and cannot love. it's natural. and you cannot stop the force of natural love. that's for freggin sure.

for ms. bayley --

love,

this is for you.

Bliss 

In the middle of the night,

My bedroom washed in moonlight

And outside

The faint hush-hushing

Of an ebbing tide,

I see Venus

Close to

The waning moon.

I hear the bubbling hoot

Of a playful owl.

Pierrot's purrs

Ripple under my hand,

And all this is bathed

In the scent of roses

By my bed

Where there are always

Books and flowers.

In the middle of the night

The bliss of being alive!

i go home tomorrow for the first time in a month. back to my nest. my safety net. my womb. rumour has it my bedroom is out of sorts and not how i left it. a new body has slept in my palace of dreams. i cannot wait to stretch my legs and cuddle with my four legged friend. sleep soundly and be pampered. be a visitor in someone else's palace of dreams.

MARCH MADNESS

this is a terribly swell idea, and i have been stalking it since 01 march. i will get aboard. soon. i am in the midst of midterms and hopeful internship placements and going home for a weekend'ing.

the roommate and i are seeing rooms: a rock romance tomorrow night and i am pumped. i am then seeing HAIR (insert a thousand and ten smiley faces) next weekend, and next to normal a few weekends later. i am clearly doing my part and supporting broadway.

i am a loyal radio listener!

i dont have satellite radio, so all you fancy-tech-savvy kids, dont make fun of this post!

last week (or maybe, earlier this week) new york's very own k-rock was taken off the air. ive grown up listening to k-rock. back when howard stern was doing the morning show, all the way up to opie & anthony. i never could bother with z100, ktu or the other mainstream stations. krock was my jam!

however, this fall, i discovered a new station. i blogged about it. matt pinfield took over 101.9 and they were playing a nice assortment of indie, rock, dylan, etc. the spring standards were soon interviewed by the legendary matt pinfield, he performed a song with them - and i knew i had found a new home. a lovely new home with a bald friend.



at 8am every morning, i would hustle and bustle to be the 9th caller to spin matt's ipod and attempt to talk to him. that's all i wanted! to thank a man for playing such awesome music. i never made it through (although, i should never say NEVER, there is still time!) but shea did. i cried tears of happiness. there she was, talking to a man who was saving rock n roll!

slowly but surely, my love and devotion to krock diminished. i soon changed my alarm clock to no longer wake me up to opie & anthony, but to matt pinfield. i started calling myself a "pinhead". obsessed, i am. then came the news. krock was going. for good.

this morning, matt had some krock dj's on the air. i thought this was awesome. at one time competitors, they were all in a room together, talking to fans. he let them say a goodbye they were never able to say to their devoted listeners. they urged loyal krock fans to make the switch to 101.9. they spoke about how they are worried rock n roll may be dying. but in a state as great as new york - where you can go to a rock show every night of your life, that will never happen. they all sounded so sad, and mourned a station that allowed a station like 101.9 to even come into play.

i will miss krock. it was a staple for us alt-rock lovers. but i am comfortable with 101.9. give them a fair shot, they wont let you down. and you out of towners can even listen to them on the world wide web - fancy!

everything about this film i loved.
everything about this film made me realize how much i miss such a beautiful, devoted country.

the food.
the streets.
the subways.
the sunsets. (oh my word, always so beautiful).
the people.
the love.
the LIFE.
the way of the culture.
the music.
the dancing.
the art.
the art.
the art.
the art.

i miss my summer in madrid. i miss my semester traveling through spain. barcelona was not my favourite, to be frank it was valencia. but none the less, beautiful. gorgeous. of all the places in the world to travel, i want to walk barefoot in the streets of seville again. italy can wait. fiji will not fill like home. only spain.

Use every letter you write, every conversation you have, every meeting you attend, to express your fundamental beliefs and dreams. Affirm to others the vision of the world you want. You are a free, immensely powerful source of life and goodness. Affirm it. Spread it. Radiate it. Think day and night about it and you will see a miracle happen: the greatness of your own life.

please dont divorce my best friends

"Fidelity": Don't Divorce... from Courage Campaign on Vimeo.

oh matt doyle.

"Our cast experienced a funny moment this past wednesday when we were rehearsing for "Defying Inequality." We are performing a new take on "Totally Fucked." (Don't worry...it's not "Totally Stuck.") We all found our old tracks and started jumping around again all excited...and then nearly collapsed from exhaustion. When you don't do it 8 times a week it really is a bitch. To think that we did that twice on closing night makes me realized just how in tune our bodies were with the show. Remember...Blake and I had a quiet seduction scene immediately following that...thank god everybody clapped for so long or we wouldn't have been able to speak."
