(Insert title here)

So my week wasn't very exciting, same as always. With the exception of yesterday(sat) Did alot of web stuff this week, listing new things, taking pictures of them stuff like that.

Lots of talk with Suzie and my dad this week about opening a shop eventually. Its a consignment shop that will focus on ren themed items as well as local artists and designers. We'll have to wait it out to see if it ever actually goes any where.

On a super awesome note Bey Abi (the bellydance troupe im with) found out that we are performing at the big Rennaissance Faire!

We had black belt testing all week for 3 of our boys so that was most of my week. 3 days of sparring and 1 day of everything else.

Then yesterday after black belt testing Ferret came and installed my dreads(pics below) I freakin love them!!! then we had dance practice and the awesome Sooz came to give us pointers and drill us in ATS(American Tribal Style) I learned so so much and it was great. But i am really sore today. Then i we all went to club skandal to watch Ferret, Nonnie & Sooz perform. It was way cool except for all the goth girls that looked like they wanted to beat me up cuz im not all goth-d out. I took a ton of pictures. Here are some:

This is a cool picture i got of Ferret:
