Sparkly new intro... (not that I'm bored and have to wait for my afternoon practical or anything)





I'm still Why biggrin



Now 24 (almost 1/4 century... yay me)



Over in Glasgow, officially, but can't help but visit Ed lots.



Eternal student, new degree in a new city (another 4 years to go)



Toy of choice: Staff - not good, but not useless... Don't practice much, but like to think I am getting good at teaching beginners' stuff ubbrollsmile



Other toys: Really interested (= not good, but now own one) in whips, bit of poi (well I can manage that one indoors), contact people (hugs, snuggling, non-serious acro).



Current fun move/working on: Why do I ask myself silly questions?





staff: 1-beats in stupid hand positions and places, fishtails (my left hand WILL get it eventually) and fishy transfers, elbow to wrist rolls, elbow pops, random stupid stall-y, devilsticky things... etc...



doubles: still only just starting out... looking for fluidity before thinking too much about "tricks"



whips: (I have no idea of terminology... so shall make things up the now:) still can't do a bloody simple over arm crack!, horizontal lasso cracks, low level multi cracks (4-5 indoors when I had a big corridor, 3 on grass), fun transition from low level to high... (3 low, 2 high with extra loud last high), wiggly multi-cracks



poi: (not really looked up terminology again) butterfly variations... kinda butterfly weave thing, between legs stuff, stalls, isolations, cleaning up 3 and 5 bt weaves, btb backwards weave (and eventually forwards...), trying to get head around airwraps still too



people: much hugging practice... still my total favourite move hug, and a few silly acro games with silly people :o)



Been to any gatherings? (mon) Ed fire nights until recently (uni started back), glasgow juggling (weds) and sometimes glas fire (fridays), Uberstaff, oooh went to my 1st EJC... was ace cool, hope to go to a few more convention type things...

hoping for Play, EJC, uberstaff, (mebbe even uberpoi!), who knows...



run out of time/self-questions









----------

Old me intro:





So since all, or enough of, the EUJS-er's have worked out who I am, I guess I should try being official about things





who?: why



you what?: "why"



Go by anything else?: Mike, Mikey, Mickey (the mouse-man), and a number of others including the ever popular "oi you!" (and am NOT BELINDA tongue )



age?: 22



sex?: male



located?: scotland currently, Edinburgh to be precise... studying at uni, originally hail from further south in the UK though



doing what?: I told you... student



play with?: staff... and very recently started the joy of poi... though I don't get a chance to play with either too much frown



any questions, just shout cool

Well it's too late now. I dismembered it. It's down to just it's fingers now. But it's bloody good for a cheap umbreela. I can get 4 knuckles out of each finger if I want, But I'm trying to figure out a way to use em whole. Plus they would make wicked claws on the ends of stilts... biggrin cool

I still haven't got welders gloves. But considering how large they have to be to be a reasonable distance away from my skin, it's going to look like they start part way up my forarm...

Either that or just have one knuckle and a pretend join to it. I'll shown you more sometime.

Oh god, I hate that I should have revised feeling...

Hey Megsy, ta for doing that thing this afternoon, hope it all went well (and you enjoyed the smoothies). Can't make it to the cinema tomorrow, but think Rose and Dan are going so if you want to represent the society (And see Troy) then go along and appologise for me.

And I'm sorry about screwing up the e-mail thing, I know now what I did wrong and it will NOT happen again. Fool of a Took!

See y'all later :P

Plus I'm drunk now. And rereading my sober posts adn they make no sense - YAY!

Went to see Troy last night - not a bad film, quite pretty and lots of scantily clad men fighting in the hot, sunny deserts with shiny weapons and lots of blood. Mmmmmmmmmmm


Sorry, in a world of my own there. Anyhoo, won't be at the film but may try and make it to the pub afterwards (depending on when I can escape form the Ninja/pirate party tonight). Hope to see some of you there (not you Kit, cos you can't afford to come down tonight)

Bon voyage, mes amies

sorry about that. I hate stupid exams... Why don't they just ask us someting like: Do you want to do a final year: Yes: Okay then you can.

That would be nice.

I've been practising (if you could call it that) stupid pendulum stuff. Pendulum buzzsaw is particularly pointless. And pendulum isolated buzzsaw even more hilarious. I really want to get the pendulum weave though. I'm pretty sure there must be a load of incredibly complex and totally silly pendulum moves around somewhere. I just haven't found em yet. Even better: trying to do circles with the poi heads while stalled.

God. I want to be doing stix. Do you want to see my latest stix vid? I can e-mail it to you?

Not isolate the head. Just move your hand in a circle and try and keep the head from swinging too much. I think it's really really pointless, but quite fun. It might be good just stuck it a routine...
