hello :-)
I have been terribly awol for the last year or so. last time I posted I was off for a month of travelling in the land Oz. Guess I better update you all.....I've been here ever since. The 'friend' i went to visit turned out to be a whole lot more.....in fact he's been my partner ever since.
Sooo, after a year or so in Brisneyland, where i was woefully slack in catching up with firey type people (although I did meet a few of you, arsn and valura in particular), we washed up in Seeedney a few months ago. We move into a funky flat in Marrickville next week.
So, my question is, what's happening down here? Where do sydney people go to play with fire? After barely touching my toys for nearly a year, I'm rusty, but I'm up for a bit of firey fun. Somebody let me know what's happening and where to go.....i know hardly anyone in this enourmous city.
Look forward to hearing from you....i probably won't be a really regular poster here, but I'll try to keep in touch a bit better than i have. Hope you are all happy and well. i am.

the memories fire, the rhythm falls slow....

Hi Xaeda!
I still can't get that wrist spinny thing you showed me in St Kevin's Arcade....Gee? That was YEARS AGO now...
I'm finally going to the juggling festival after 6 years of trying, and taking some staff and balloon sculpting classes.
Oh yeah! I'm married, to the love of my life from University over 9 years ago!
And, we now have a huge healthy blue eyed boy (8 months in another week!
wow...I better let someone else say a few things...

I remember you from such videos as "Xaeda with Staff" and "Xaeda with staff 2".
Loved your work, can't wait to see you spin in person.

I remember you too - the video clips of you in the free lessons section really helped me when I was trying to learn to spin when my wrist was starting to heal after I broke it
Also, I seem to remember you mentioning somewhere that you picked your screen name because you can type it with one hand on a keyboard
But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

Ah dear! Good to hear all is well with you Xaeda. Drop back to HOP from time to time to say hi
