Scottish Girl

Hey!
So today was a pretty hard day back at school. I could barely keep my eyes open.

I thought i'd do a blip on my interests.. Hobbies.. Things I'm proud of. But then I realise I have only one. highland dancing

I started highland dancing nearly 8 years ago when I was six. I joined because my sister had taken up the sport two years before, so she encouraged me to take part.
Ever since then I have been to dance class every week. I just love the feel of dancing. Everytime i dance, I can't help but smile. It's so exciting and I feel on top of the world when I'm dancing, everything just seems to get better. I can just let my self go with the music and get totally lost in the sound of the bagpipes.

I danced in the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo for the first time last year. Wow. The atmosphere when you stepped on to the esplanade was just amazing. I had never felt anything like it. I feel so proud to be able to say in dancing in the Tattoo. It makes me feel important and It makes me feel like I'm good enough. Even though it tends to rain a lot, it just adds the amazing experience.

Dancing is such a big part of my life. An it's not something that's quite common like ballet or hip hop. It's unique.

Anyway, I'm off to watch some tv before I have to head to bed!
Have a lovely night!
