Zili Misik at the Beehive

I met theBand Zili Misik last night through my fellow dragon boat paddler, Anhdao! Anhdao takes photos for the band and have known veteran members for years. Here, JoBeth, a filipina, does the drums. Rajdulari, in the middle does vocals and percussion. Zili Misik is a 8-woman band that plays afro-cuban music. I love the high paced jungle beats and the happy tempo they play. Their performace is phenomenal that I highly recommend them if you are looking for a night full of dance and fun. Check them out on http://www.zilimisik.com/ and http://www.sonicbids.com/epk/epk.asp?epk_id=34478 and http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=27259505.

Hartford Dragon Boat Race

My second race for this season...we raced in Hartford, Connecticut last Sept 15. It was a rainy, chilly day to start. We paddled with a temperature in the high 60's which for me is crazy cold. But, the gods heard our plea and let the sun out in the afternoon. We did our best and came home with the bronze! DBCB team is the best!...waiting to kick as next season...

Boston, My Kind of Town

One of the reasons that brought me back to Boston is that I get to hang out with cool people doing cool things! Being alone for some time has certainly helped me to get to know myself more and it helped me to learn to be steady in the midst of uncontrolled chaos...

The Tables Have Turned

I have bid my goodbyes to NYC and hello Boston. Here there and back again. Not so new city, but new friends, new job, new apartment - a new life... another chance to reinvent. I can't stop saying how excited I feel. What's gonna be in store for me? All I know is I will go with the flow, as always. Bring it on!

Btw, thanks Jay for the awesome pic! Loving it!
