It has been over 6 months since my last update, I'm really sorry about that...However, I have decided to begin posting again every now and then, when I have got the time :)
It seems I haven't got as much spare time as I was hoping to this year, which is kind of my own fault. I am now in the last year of the gymnasium, so the work load is quite big. It is manageable but it does take a big part of my time when I'm not in school.
This summer, I began dancing at a new school as my old teacher was moving away. I am now attending a school which only offers Irish dancing, which is a big change since my last school only had Irish dancing as an extra team, so we were always forgotten. It is a really great school! I love the teachers, the dances we learn and the other dancers are really nice as well. We always have a good time while we are dancing, which makes dancing even more fun. So now I'm dancing 5 times a week!!!! 2 "normal" classes with solo dances, 1 céilí team and 2 dance drama classes. I'm getting in better shape every day now which is really great. Only problem is that I've gotten very bad shin splints, which makes it kind of hard. Hopefully it'll go away soon. My hard shoes have also given me some really nice blisters which have turned into wounds now :( But I manage to stay dancing all week, and it is really worth it. I will be going to a feis in 2 weeks, so hopefully it'll be better soon.
I will be back soon, when there's more to tell :)
