edit:

figured i may as well say some other stuff in this post too, seeing as i'm presently changing the title of the thread (from the basic introduce yourself here thread to what you now see it as)...

first off, HoP rules. i am so grateful to have found poi, and to have come to this magickal land of peace and happiness. everyone here is so wonderful and amazing and full of sharing and caring and love. such a wonderful family, i have not come across anything even vaguely resembling it on the net... as im sure you can agree.

secondly.. its all love. everything is love. if you see love then you'll feel it and have such a greater, more enjoyable time here on earth. feel free to indulge in the ubblove and heart and hug that you will find in this thread... if you share love it is doubled....

cant really think of anything else atm...

..any questions? i love questions.. yay.

much love, folks. heart



so this was the original post:



hello.





using comet poi outside while its windy sometimes gets you whipped in the face and sometimes tangles your poi up, but it helps to achieve definition in your moves.

doing poi in front of a mirror (or two) helps you as well.

i know, you all know this already.

maybe i should just say:

um.

and leave it at that..

but thats nowhere near as entertaining, and i'm sure that there will not be that much conversation created by that, and thats why i've come here, i suppose, to chat and meet people so i can do more poi, because it is

real stink

when you dont have anyone to poi with.

and im in wellington, nz. i did a search and there are no others from wellington on this site.. which rather suprised me.

i like poi. they are fun and stimulating. i like uncovering "new" moves and i like "perfecting" moves that i couldn't do before..

i find it difficult to understand how poi moves are supposed to go when reading in the forums, i find it easier to watch someone do it and then duplicate the same (or similar) body movements..

hence the desire to hook up with people, i guess..



anyway.

im 25. im a healer (energy-work, acupuncture, chinese massage), and am into meditation and spirituality (although i have sampled from many different religions/philosophies/modes of thought etc, what resonates most with me is zen buddhism, taoism, and integral studies). i dont eat animals (three years) and dont buy into that "reality" bullshit (ie tv, newspapers etc). what is happening to me directly is far more interesting to me than whats made up or whats being fed to us (which is usually coloured a certain way because... blahblah). i like nature a lot. so rich and vibrant and wonderful. i like music, all different genres (even country..!), although i have been enjoying reggae, r&b and hip-hop lately. very good to dance to, although i find it a little slow to poi to.. i like movies like fight club, the cube, princess mononoke etc.

um.

i've been married (still am, i spose.. separated - but on amicable terms, yayfully), which was a great experience, but now.. the freedom of being one instead of part of two.. its really nice. all that potential..

anyway.. i cant think of anything more to say.

hope this wasn't too long.

todd.

you guys rock!
thanks!

one handed poi just frustrates me a little bit coz it just reminds me of how i cant do anything with my left hand...
but now, at least, i am able to type with my left hand... albeit cautiously...
i love hugs.
hugs love me.
yay!

lol.
i have been, honest.
my hand is good. it can poi, it can type, it can do the dishes.. there are, in fact, many things it was previously unable to do, which it now CAN do. ie. the dishes, recycling etc...
mind you, i still kinda enjoy the idea of being padlocked...
