I got my Oireachtas results back in the mail (First thing in the Irish Dance world that was on time--actually, early! No way!). I got 54th. out of 75 danced, 77 signed up. they recalled 38. Not bad, considering i got 104th out of 108 last year. I've taken to saying that had i placed this well last year, i would've recalled. Because it's true ( Read more... )
