    OMG I am counting down the days until LA.  This is just what I need right from the stress of the day to day job!  I told my boss Steven is going to be there (she fell in love with him on last seasons AGT) and she thought that was awesome.

    I think I need to start packing like NOW!  LOL I always have to put eyelashes, glitter and hair in my packing list.

     

    Friday I was gonna do jeans, dressy top and heels.  But bringing flats just in case.  For Sat, Im still thinking about it.  Im thinking about finding some dressy shorts and wearing those with a cute sandal.

    I heard I was on The View and I made an appearance on The Soup.  I didnt want to watch The Soup b/c I knew he was gonna not say anything nice.  ABC always has links to full episodes of thier shows.  I guess its time to really get a manager and book these shows!!!  LOL

     

    On the 22nd I will be on Access Hollywood Live!  Thank to my AGT bit!

    JEANSGINA- My hair is natually a dark blonde.  I dont lighten it first before it. I buy all my supplies from Sallys Beauty Supply.  I use a 20vol and ion red brillance.  They dont make hair extensions that color so I bought ones closet to my real hair color and dyed them.  I figured it would match better. 

     

    I have vids on here, not much though.  Keep forgetting to post them here and not You Tube.

    I dont even bother with haters.  No point wasting my breath on them. If youve got haters, that means your doing something right!

     

    OMG, some much good stuff has come from it.

    I am an automotive accounting and title clerk for 2 car dealers.  I used to like my job now I just dread getting up every morning and making my way in there.  Since we opened the 2nd dealer I have been very burnt out by the job.  I am feeling like I am constantly behind in my work and can never catch up.  Every day the job gets more and more mentally draining, it makes me not even do the things I want to do (pole).  Ive been there for 6 yrs and im starting to feel ready for something else.  I have an awesome boss but Im so ready for a change.

    today is the big day!!! I even told the barista at Starbucks to watch as well.  I have alot of friends who are DVR'ing it.  You know 12-14million people seeing me in my bra and underwear – NO PRESSURE AT ALL!!!  LOL

     

    For those who cant get the show, they normally post it on YT or they post directly on their website. 

     

    Im am so excited and so nervous all at the same time.  I know the outcome and I know what was filmed but im just nervous about the editing of the segment and the aftermath.  Im nervous about the door it could/wont open, what kind of hate mail im gonna get.  But hey as my producer said – it takes alot of courage to go on that stage infront of those judges and give it your all.

    nope, you can still get your convention pass.  As for booking a room, you might want to try FBing the Pole Con and seeing if anyone has any open room slots.  I will be there!

    June 2, 2012 at 10:23 pm in reply to: canada s got talent where are the pole dancers

    They might of made it to the next round but didnt show their orginial audition.  I dont know how Canadas work but if its like the American version, then they base their decision on if they make it to the next round, their back story etc.

    poletrickster – omg, I really hope they air the whole thing.  It was soooooo cool!  

     

    I have to say its one of the best experiences Ive ever had.  That whole weekend was something really special.  It was great growth for me as a person, mom, wife, pole dancer on so many levels.

    Yep Scarlett thats me.  Long red hair, kinda looks like The Little Mermaid with the costume color choice!  Ive seen myself a few times on the promos and a few other things.  

    Ive asked our Service Dept at work to put it on that day so we can watch some of the customers realize its me on tv.

    May 26, 2012 at 11:39 am in reply to: your nemesis moves…

    Mine are mostly lifts, moves where you are really relying on you upper body to do alot of the work.  I guess its b/c im holding a large chunk of weight (rest of my body) and relying on my arms.  Anything split grip as well – I got tendonitis on my left wrist when I went at it hard so that fear still sits with me from time to time.

    May 25, 2012 at 8:39 am in reply to: Is anyone else overweight?

    Im plus sized, and ive learned throughout the years to just love the body im in – no matter if im at my smallest or my largest.  Last year I was dignosed with PCOS and it hit me like a ton of bricks, I gained over 30lbs – add on top of that stress from trying to juggle everything on my  plate.  I was sleeping, if I ate – it was really bad for you foods.  I didnt want to work out, I didnt even want to go out with my friends.  This year I finally stepped on the scale and didnt like the number I saw.  I decided to go back to my old ways pre-pcos and get my body back.  Ive dropped about 25lbs so far, im determined to make it to 50lbs by the end of the year.  Ive been tracking my food intake on an app for my phone and that really put things into perpesctive.  I go to the gym about 3days a week and go to class one day a week.  Now since I have a performance coming up, I will probably be working on my performance 2x a week and drop a day from the gym.  I also go walking on my lunch break too. 

     

    I try not to measure by the scale but how my pants fit and I how I feel overall.

    I have a list of workshops I want to take and what I wanted to see at PoleCon I blocked out on my Google Calendar which totally helps.  But I gotta find out what Platinum Stages wants to do with me over the weekend.  I volunteered to man the table for a bit.

    Or the mom who gives her kid 'go go' juice – its Mountain Dew with Red Bull in it.  What on this green earth does an 8yr old need that kind of caffiene in their system, they are naturally energetic to begin with!

     

    Melanie Kady has her own makeup that she sells and she attended one of those pagents and some of the advertisments are just crap.  One was advertising 'natural looking photos', natrual photos are my daughter playing out in the yard with her bff or showing off her personality – not caked in makeup.

    I remember when she posted the video of her poling in her barn and you were praying that the barn wasnt going to come down on her.

    For me, its not just the Bobbi's girls I love – I love all the Aussie dancers!  OMG, they are all so talented and freaking gorgeous!!!  I love how they put on a show from start to finnish! Just watching the Ms Pole Dance Austrailia promo vids make me want to pack up and move there for a year.  My own Eat, Pray, Pole journey!!!

    May 10, 2012 at 8:57 am in reply to: The Splits & Knee Problems

    I was going to suggest Veenas idea of using a foam roller before stretching. Im also experincing the same issue with my knee.  My hamstrings are super tight (I try to have a particular someone massage them at home but he wants a 'reward' for being nice, nope rather pay for a massage instead, LOL)

    SO MANY OPTIONS!!!!  but thats a good thing!

    Check out the various pole manufactuers, also look into how much its going to be to ship them etc.  You can look for a local studio near you – lots of studios offer an intro class free of charge.  If a studio is out of your reach THIS IS THE BEST RESOURCE FOR LESSONS!  You can take Veenas lessons (which I still gotta remind myself to sign up for them for the conditioning), or you can ask lots of questions on the lovely forum (I promise we dont bite too hard :))

     

    You can order xpole here, you can order a PS pole off of my website – http://www.team-lulu.com,

  • Like Chem said, if you like the style of the Xpole bag, get a snowboarding bag.  I saw a few of them while waiting in line at the airport a few months ago and it would totally fit.  Im currently working on storage bag for my ssa, im hoping to submit it to them as a possible option for a carrying bag. I also do like like the quick pin pull and your instantly on spin. 

    When we opened the boxes for my stage at AGT, I asked if we could clean it down with rubbing alcohol.  Having past experiences with new poles out of the box, I knew there could be something film like on the pole from packaging. My producer was impressed how easily it came together as well (she had only worked with xstage previously).  I wipe mine down with alcohol but I want to get some of the cleaner Itac makes, I used it at the Annapolis studio on the brass poles and I liked the way it cleaned. 

     

    Your best bet is to give PS a call.  Erica has been great since shes joined the PS team and is really helpful as well.

     

    Just like everyone else said, before you start poling, just do a quick saftey check.

    Funny thing is the footage that they used was from round one which is no music round!!  Another girl used that song as her performance song and put that in the segment instead. 

    My on going joke about that segment is when I go and get my award for Peoples Choice, I look like one of those elderly ladies who get selected to be on The Price Is Right!  Wheres my Bob Barker sweater???

     

    Let me tell you what I do with hate mail – laugh and delete!  I dont read them if I stumble across them online at all.  If your good at what you do, your gonna have haters.  It used to get to me and if they catch me on the right day, it will totally blow out my ego!
