Dance Journal Entry 1


I have officially decided to change this blog into my dance and training journal. No one reads this anyways, and besides if someone actually wants to waste their time on reading about my boring life then let em'.


This is week has beyond hectic. St.Paddy's week. One of the busiest and craziest week for an irish dancer. No stop performances at retirement homes and pubs + a senior dancer = blisters, exhaustion and back pain. Waaahhhh... <-- Snooky (Jersey Shore) reference. This week has helped me to become comfortable performing in front of people again, which is good since I am starting to compete in May, but I am looking forward to Friday when it's all over and I can sit in front of my t.v and watch Say Yes to the Dress.

So I need to online my goals for Nationals 2011. My big come back. Back in the day I always did well at Nationals so I guess that's why I picked that major as my come back. Today I was asked what my goal was, and although my mother would love for me to say "to have fun and be happy with the way I danced", it's actually to qualify for Worlds. I have been one spot away from qualifying more than once, and believe me it's uber frustrating. I feel no where near where I need to be if I am going to qualify at Nationals, but I know if I stay on track and focused I can do anything I put my mind to.

I want to be:

NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER, NATIONALS WORLD QUALIFIER

Today:
Two shows both at retirement homes and practiced at the studio for 30mins

  1. I still read it! You can do it girlie, you have the drive and talent. I really feel bad that I couldn't make it to any of your performances, because I'm dying to see you dance. Love ya and I'll be sending you positive vibes for your competitions.
