Wondering what peeps are reading to get motivated, I am re reading the Creative Habit and starting on the Art of Making Dances, with a little bit of Philip Pullman to give myself a break from the info barrage that is dance study.

Also wanted to say bye bye for the next month, I will be traveling Eastern Europe by train for my honey moon...so adding the lonely planet guide to Romania and the European Train timetable to the reading list!

    well first of all, Have a Wonderful honeymoon !! and if you can take lots of pics to share !

    Reading, well dont laugh but "how to change your life in seven days" by Paul McKenna only its taking me 2 months to read the book ! hahaha but it has very good exercises for positive thinking rather then just telling you to think positive and reach your goals. and "A Trade like Any Other": Female Singers and Dancers in Egypt by Karin van Nieuwkerk, which is intresting but bit heavy going !
