Bre Pettis Living the DIY Dream

I went and had acupuncture with Dr. Ma last week and I’m going again this week. It is difficult for me because I am afraid of needles. But I haven’t been real healthy in my life and I think it is affecting my life path, so I’m doing it. She is also having me take Chinese herbal tea. It is veeeery gross. I think there are bug larva in mine. Yech. But I do feel healthier afterwards. I have to cut down on sweets.

Being a teacher is a strange trip. I see 250 kids over two days. 11 classes of between 20 and 28 students. I will be having a big dance performance coming up. I am teaching dances and putting together an all adult dance band. Sigh, today I told a student who was interested in being in the band that since he had missed the first two rehearsals, he couldn’t be in the band. I hate being the rejecter. Hopefully I didn’t scar him for life and he will do it next year.

It feels good to write.

4 weeks ago I wanted land.
3 weeks ago I decided I would get an MFA
2 weeks ago I decided I would dedicate myself to writing screen plays and making movies
Yesterday I decided to open an art gallery. I saw a run down storefront in the intl. district and I want it.
Today, I just want to fall into a sublimely happy place
Needless to say, I just feel like I am wanting a change in my life. I moving past the “it should just fall in my lap” stage and thinking about making it happen. I feel like I am spinning the wheel of fortune right now. Life is short, and I want to be active in my life in the world.
