Hello!
My name is Chrissy. I am new around these parts, and just learning to play the fire game. I have been a happily crazy/insane person for quite some time, I decided to add fire to the mix
I have been watching beautiful people do such graceful dances with their fans, whips, poi, hoops for quite some time, that I decided I absolutely had to be in that world. So, here I am. I now have, my most favoritist thing, 2 large lotus fans and am super excited. Any tips that can be offered, would be most appreciated!!!! Oh and the questions that must be answered...
Name: Chrissy Rumford
Location: North Augusta, South Carolina. United States of America
Hometown: Same place...
Birthday (sign?): 2/12/79 Aquarius
Age: 32
Sex: often.....hehe J/K Female
Occupation(s): Telecommunications
Favorite Food(s): Lamb chops
Favorite Color(s): black/red/purple
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? Would this be when it is or isn't carrying coconuts?
Toys: New Lotus Fire fans
Hobbies other than the obvious: Theater, Tarot Reading, Video Games, studying paganism/world religions
Education: basic graduation, nothing fancy
Favorite Book(s): There are too many to count
Favorite Movie(s): Bram Stokers Dracula, Elizabeth, Labyrinth, The Last Unicorn, Princess Bride, Legend, The Dark Crystal
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? The Enterprise would shoot them from space. More stability and structurally sound than a Star Destroyer
Favorite TV show(s): It is all programmed to rot your brains. I don't watch it that often. When I do, it is the History, Military, or Animal Channel
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) I do not want to grow up. I want to try all kinds of new things and not slow down until I am restrained to stop. My kids are getting interested in all that I do to, which is great. My 13 year old is doing poi and if she sticks with it, she can move from her glow balls to fire. Awesome!!
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: I appreciate all artists, but personally can't take Rap or Country. I love classical, jazz, rock, new age, death metal, drum and bass, rock a billy. Right now I am on a SwitchBlade Symphony, Lords of Acid, Type-O-negative, ICP kick....
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? only slightly- only slightly
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): I don't like this stuff. I like pie....Like most souther girls I like peach and apple the best
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* I have only seen Nutella over here in the states and, I hope I am not committing heirecy here but that stuff is terrible. I would probably do vegemite. It sounds like a vegetable spread. I think the other is like marmalade or jelly, just from deductive reasoning. And I like vegetables. So there is my decision
I do have a question for those of you that have been playing with fire for some time. For the fans, what are the basics for wicks? How often do you replace them? How much do you wrap when you do replace? How are the wicks secured on when you do replace? That kind of thing......And advice
Thanks all!!!
