sadly, since drive in theatres only have business in the spring and summer mainly, they are slowly disappearing off the map.

growing up in wichita, ks, i loved going to the drive-in. it meant as a child i could stay up late and watch movies and finally pass out in the well-blanketed and cushioned bed of a truck when tired.

it seems like everyone knows that one jingle from growing up – for some people it’s alka-seltzer, for where i live now in manhattan, ks it’s pizza shuttle, and for me, it’s “The starlite drive-in gives you more call 524-24-24…” It’s so catchy you can’t forget it.

my boyfriend is from manhattan, ks and has never been to one so i plan on taking him on his 21st birthday! :)

I’ve been in a couple of fashion shows and despite runway walking is different than regular walking in heels, I can point out a few tips:

1. Watch some professionals walk – look up runway shows on YouTube if necessary.
2. It’s all about confidence. If you’re not confident about it, walking in heels is not as appealing.
3. Don’t stomp your feet – remember, you’re walking, not marching. Take smaller steps rather than big wide steps.
4. Practice in front of a mirror and watch your feet.
5. The more you wear heels, the more comfortable they will be on your feet – start with wearing them for a short period and work up to longer periods – bring more comfortable flat shoes with you if you need to change.

Hopefully, some of this information was helpful. Really, walking in heels isn’t as difficult as some find it to be at first. It just takes practice.

I used to be all about new music, new bands, concerts… There’s a beauty in music that I love but I feel like I’ve fallen behind. Since I’ve started college, it’s been hard to keep up between going to school and working both full time.

I want to catch back up with the music scene and go to a concert. Soon. When I have time… But soon.
