Some friends come, some friends go, but they're always friends.

Well it has been a really busy couple of weeks! Been trying to dance a lot, but getting sick last weekend has killed it! I haven't danced since last Friday and am reaaaally feeling it. I'm going to practice tonight if it kills me. So what been going on in the world of halfstep? One of my closest friends in DC is moving away. My first friend in DC actually. So I've been to like 3 or 4 parties for her already, dang that's crazy for one person to have like 8 going away parties...just leave already! Just kidding haha. But anyway, I learned a lot from this person, and she's one of my dancing role models. I wish her the best of luck in AZ, and I'm going to go battle her next year!!! Because as you all know next year will be the start of me becoming a sick bboy. :D Anyway, this person is the one who got me to try out for Culture Shock DC. Its been a really rough 6-8 months, and my choreography skills still really suck, but I'm making progress. And as stubborn as I am, I'm just going to keep trying. She gave me a really symbolic gift the other night that meant a lot to me. Its a bandana from the last culture shock performance starring her, and it was given with the promise that I wear it to my first performance, which will be soon I hope. I'm going to hang it in my room for inspiration and a reminder to never stop reaching for the impossible.

In other news... Some chums (no not chumps :@) from college are coming to visit me. These people don't really know the bboy halfstep that has evolved since Japan and DC so well. They are really excited to see me dance and I hope I can live up to the expectations lol. It will be really good to see Sujan again, I've got to visit him more in NYC. We are going to eat Momo!!! It will be good times. I even heard from Yash, my lazy Indian college roomy haha. He tried to get me to move to Richmond VA for a job. NOO WAY! I like DC for now. I also got to learn the whereabouts of a friend who's been lost to me for a while, and I'm really happy about that.

It makes you think about life. So many people come in and out of your life, some for mere seconds, some for years. Everyone has something to add to your life if you know where to look. Some people make you angry, some people hurt you, some are hurt by you, some bring you joy, teach you how to robot dance...ect...ect, but everyone has something to add. I'm a really REALLY shy person, and I feel so blessed to have been touched by so many people. I have a lot of good people in my life, have left behind a lot of great people in my life, and look forward to meeting many more wonderful people in my life. I only hope that I can add as much to these people's lives as they have to me.
