I’ve got another year to look forward to. Oireachtas are exactly 2 months from this coming weekend. I’ve kinda started practicing, but now I really need to get my game face on. I rolled my ankle on August 31, which kept me out for a week. I’m trying to bounce back from that and keep pressing on to reach my goal yet again this year. I think it’s possible. I’ve come so far in the last year, not just with the dancing itself but with my mindset. I’ve truly cultivated a love for dancing and been proud of the work that I’ve put in. I think this is going to be a good year.

How I did it: It took forever to grow my hair out, but I love the natural curl that has come with long hair. Everyone gives me so many compliments, and I love it because it feels so feminine. I've had short hair since age 14, so the change is great. Read how I did it…
By “do well”, I mean recall. I have done well at Nationals before (minus last year), but I really want to move up in my ranking. I would like to place higher and most of all, dance my best. I want to really improve and feel like I danced my best and gave it my all in practice and in the final performance !
I got 10th! I’m going to Worlds! I accomplished half of my goal, which was to qualify for the World Championships in 2008! I have never been this happy in my life. I worked my arse off and it has paid off. Belfast, here I come!
