The movement needs to come from something solid, immovable; it needs to come from the ground.

- Meeting new friends and seeing/reconnecting/strengthening-those-strings-with old ones.

- Watching a friend's brother get arrested for something the masses were doing.

- Not changing/showering for 3 days.

- Living off of Wok Village and Ithaca Bakery.

- Dancing straight through the night.

There were ups and downs, yes, but it has been quite a life. Now we've laid it to rest for a while and next year it will spring up once more.
