Hung a dreamcatcher over my bed.

So this weekend was the Stanford Powwow, a 3-day celebration of Native American song, dance, arts, and community.  I figured it'd be too good to miss, so I dragged along my roommate Nina.  "This is something you definitely won't get in Germany," I told her.  Glad I took her, because she was beside herself.  She got an arrow to remember the event by, and I got myself a dreamcatcher, something I've wanted since I was a kid.


I think the best part was definitely the fantastic costumes.  It makes me want an Aztec headdress with feathers reaching five feet around my head.  Some highlights include a video of the switchdance competition and the Aztec dancing.  Enjoy!
