Pre-Nationals Mini Update

Nationals: Here I go, off to my second north american championship!
  • My goal is to recall, but I don't think I'll be bothered if I don't.  I have made excellent progress in my dancing since the Oireachtas, and I'm feeling good about where I stand, regardless of a nationals recall or not.  I'm trying to take this major with a no-pressure attitude.
  • I'm looking forward to spending a relaxing five days in California at essentially a convention for one of my favorite things in the world.  I'm traveling alone, so Disneyland is probably out of the picture, but I'm hoping to spend lots of time pool-side with a book and an adult beverage when I'm not dancing, and/or making new dance friends.
  • I won second place in the last instagram contest!  My prize is a photoshoot with Prine Photography while I'm in Anaheim, and also to be featured on the poster they are making.  Now, do I go buy a toy Cap shield for this?  I'm thinking yes.
  • If you see me (or a version of me being Captain America), don't hesitate to say hi!  I arrive on the 4th (tomorrow!), dance in senior ladies A split on the 6th, and leave on the 8th.  I will be doing my best to send many updates through social media as I can in Anaheim. [Follow Rince go Bragh on twitter] [Follow sekubik on instagram]

  • I placed 6th in open champs out of 15 dancers!  This continues to be a huge confidence boost for me, not only because I actually placed in open for the second time in my life, but especially so since my dad took a video of my set and it actually sounds fabulous!  After three years, my set is really becoming awesome.  I hope I can dance it at nationals.
  • All three of my teams dances won!
  • My social media updates were awesome (if I do say so myself).

Happy girl.
Goals: Don't become a head case
Days till NANs: 3

Pre-Oireachtas Update

Tomorrow I leave for my fourth Oireachtas. There's a lot riding on this: will I reach my long-term goal of a 2013 world qualification for solos? Will our figure choreography be top in the region? There has been so much work put into both, and I'd love for it all to pay off.

 It's been 130 days since my latest major injury, and here I am about to leave for a competition I thought I couldn't do a couple of months ago.

 Either way, it will be an epic weekend.


Stay in touch with me while I'm in New Orleans:

Goals: tan, finish packing
Days till Os: 1 day, 13 hours
