That actually went rather well... I think. A couple of small slips in two of the numbers; the third, as far as I can tell, was pretty much faultless.


Or at least that's what I'm saying now. It's of course entirely possible that I take one look at the DVD and decide never to dance again, least of all on a stage.


Very tired - dress rehearsal started at 14:00-ish, the show at 19:30, home after midnight - and there's also a bit of that empty feeling that seems unavoidable if something you've worked very hard for is suddenly over. And slightly nauseous from tortellini and a glass of read wine I had afterwards with some of the others. Bed now, and no alarm tomorrow morning.

Yay! Congratulations. And I'm sure you did very well.

I'm up this afternooon for mine (and it will probably be just me and my teacher - eeek!). Wish me luck!

I do!! - If it isn't too late already, it's noon, and I only just woke up...In which case I hope it all went super well. :)

Thanks! It went okay...except for the bit where I trod on my veil! But the party dancing was fun.

Thank you, I did! :) After dress rehearsal I was so stressed and tried that I didn't think I'd have the energy to do it all over again, but the show was really fine. And the best thing is, if someone had told me at any time up to two years, or even a year ago, I'd be dancing, on a stage, in belly dancing costume, I'd have laughed incredulously and said they're completely crazy. I'm really kind of proud of myself. :)
