another question lol

in theory, yes. However - comercially available warm spectrum bulbs will tend to contain more of the full visible sepcturm, so the effect won't be as pronounced as the one you get with a blue bulb.

I'm glad i finally make some sense when I'm explaining this stuff:-) Maybe it wasn't all greek to my students after all:-)

the only reason i think i guessed well is because i am familiar with the body and what it does when exposed to or deprived of different things... i found it all out when i made the decision to go sober, i was wondering why all of a sudden i was always so depressed... and i read alot about how if the body recieves enough of something it creates on its own from a different source, it will stop making it, to correct the imbalance. in my case it was the seratonin. But through that i learned alot about the body's amazing ability to adapt

I'm sorry you had to find out the hard way, but the human body is amazing, isn't it?:-)

**SmileBeyotch** · 06-17-08, 09:26 PM

**ukeyouee** · 06-17-08, 09:32 PM

well I'm around a lot right now because I'm in my office constantly finishing my master's thesis. I just finished graduate school at Illinois State University with a focus in theatrical lighting deisgn and technology. ummm. I'm 28. I was trained as a performance flute player until I was 17, when tendonitis took that out of the picture as a career...I majored in biochem/premed track for a while, but I found theatre to be more challenging (I know it sounds funny, but it's true.) I love my family, I love baseball, I love music. My SO of almost six years and I split up last summer, so that's been a bit of a ride...ummm...what else would you like to know? I'm pretty much an open book...ask away:-)

**SmileBeyotch** · 06-17-08, 09:33 PM

hmm what's ur naaaaaame? im nick btw!! and how did you get into the rave culture?

**ukeyouee** · 06-17-08, 09:40 PM

sorry:-) seee...that's why I'm not in charge! I'm sarah. I got into raving because of the music, but I honestly don't remember exactly how...or when...I remember listening to really early techno on the radio, back when it got played on top 40 radio, when I was 9 or 10, and I was totally enthralled...the first honest to god rave that I remember going to was in London in ....2001 maybe? I know I had been to several before that - there are pictures to prove it - but I don't remember a lot of things from that time in my life...drugs and all...

so, I mvoed to Baltimroe and started dating this guy who wouldn't put up with the use, but who didn't like the raving either, so I just sort of stopped. And then a couple of years later I was working in a shop in Milwaukee and the guy next door had some great trance going, and it all just came flooding back...I've been working my way back to the scene since then:-) (primarily clean and sober by the way:-)

how'd you get going? when did the bug first bite you?:-)

**SmileBeyotch** · 06-17-08, 09:51 PM

lol this is a long one!

the first bug bit me when i was about 13, when "Sandstorm" was the only techno known to my area of minnesota lol. I heard that song and i went nuts!!!! I went crazy downloading all kinds of techno! From Technotronic to Benny Benassi. I loved it all, there wasnt a single aspect of the music i didnt like!!
What got me into glowstringing, was my buddy Marc. He was always stringing around my high school. I was completely captivated. One day he taught me the butterly... and i was more excited than you have/will ever see a 14 year old boy in your life ^_^ That summer we went on a free trip to hawaii, and there in the New Zealand section of the Polynesian Cultural center I learned about the art of poi, how and where it originated, and how it has evolved today. They even had an instructor there! though at that point the butterfly was my only ability(and i dont even think i had the right to even call it that lol) but i watched Marc pick up a set of poi, little paper balls on ropes! and i watched him do all of these amazing things!!! what i know today as the the weave, butterfly crosser, the full body crosser, the wallplane weave, the wallplane crosser, and the waistwrap weave...the instructor, a native new zealander who had been spinning poi her whole life as a part of her culture (and her career) I watched her eyes grow big and she stuttered when she asked "how in the world did you do that!"(it was so cool in her little accent =P) It was the summer after that that i picked up some strings, and attached metal objects(washers, and nuts, anything that gave the strings some weight) and i began to spin!! at the time... i had no idea where i would even start to look to get a pair of glowsticks =P

**ukeyouee** · 06-17-08, 10:06 PM

that's so cool:-) sandstorm is one of my favorites, by the way. I can't fathom learning to spin with things like washers - I end up bleeding enough just from hiting myself with my poi:-)

**SmileBeyotch** · 06-17-08, 10:13 PM

I kinda want to get into poi... i mean.. about a year ago in hawaii was the first and last time i spun poi.
