Profile Information

I am a ...: Dancer

About me: hmm... well, I'm a 24 year old Irish dancer from Austria. I'm always up for a good laugh and love to party with my friends. I've started dancing back then when Michael did his world tour with Feet of Flames, so quite a couple of years ago already, but Im in professional Irish dancing classes only since autumn 2006 - with Anne-Marie Cunningham.
Besides Irish dance, computers are my 2nd big passion. That's why I study information technologies here in Salzburg - the country of Sound of Music :D

What Irish things do I play, dance, say, sing or other:: I have learned playing the Flute for about 3 years but don't do it anymore now due to my studies.

Music/Singing Level: none honestly :P

Favorite Music: of course Irish music :D that's the music my Dad and I always agree on when we go long ways by car together (otherwise Id end up listening to country songs :P) besides that I basically like all the common charts music but I dont really fancy stuff like metal n techno.

Dancing School / Group: Anne-Marie Cunningham Dance Academy

Dancing Level: Intermediate

How many years have you been Irish dancing?: 2,5 years

Favourite Irish Dance Show: Lord of the Dance - the real baby of Michael's shows :)

I love this about Irish Dancing:: it gives me a feeling like nothing else in the world!

I love this about Irish Tradition:: its so unique, and strong & kinda widespread among the Irish like hardly any other culture

Mir tut ja alles weh...kennst du das Phänomen: Wenn ich tanz tut nix weh, nur wenn ich aufhöre. Ist schon doof. Mistkübl! also wenn ich diwe Treppe aufi geh, ist alles gut, wenn ich obi geh , dann net.... Scherz! wollte nur mal mit meinen Vokabeln angeben.
Dann ab ich letztens mal den Schock meines ( tänzerischen ) Lebens gekriegt: Ich hab jemanden mit ner Wig von nahem gesehen! Das ist ja so was hässliches, diese Perücken...oder nur die( Haaransatz aschgrau, Locken eitergelb). Ich hab mich vor Schreck vertanzt... hehe. (oh, hoffentlich hast du nicht auch so was " Schönes" daheim)
Bist ja gar net mehr so oft im Diddlyi....ts, ts...das Arbeitsleben is net so spaßig, gell?!?
Sag mal, habe Gerüchte gehört, Anne-Maries Kind ist schon da. Stimmt das??? Ist doch etwas früh, oder? Ach ja, werde ENde Dezember im Zillertal verweilen und da ich ja nicht skifahren kann, eher nix tun, außer essen, schlafen, in die Sauna gehen und feiern. I love Austria!!!
Was machen die feis?? Trophäen gesammelt (mit oder ohne wig)?
Also, bis bald, fürt di (oder wie man das schreibt)!
Viola.

well finally I get to leaving you comment :) Sorry it took so long! Haven't been on diddlyi much lately. I'm completely worn out by the exam stress. Wbu? Do you have exams now too? I remember last year we were talking about overdoses red bull for you and coffee for me to get through this month :)
Well, I had my first exam yesterday and they run through till 2nd july. 10 in total. I'm sick of them already :(

I'm sorry to say I won't be able to come to szb summercamp this year :(:( I'm on holidays that week. Also, it's just bad timing dance-wise. This year I've mainly bean learning my last primary dances, a new trad set and really working on my primary stuff so I could move up to intermediate. I've now done that (yaaay), but I've only just learnt my interm reel, so I'm kinda in between primary and interm at the mom. That's why this year summercamp wouldn't be ideal anyway, you know. Coz I still wouldn't really fit into group 3 and haven't got steps. Anyway, luckily there's a workshop in Belgium the first week of july with a couple from LotD, so I'll still have some dancing.
I hope I can make it next year though. We did have sooooo much fun last year! I recently looked back at our pics. Jesus, we were a bunch of drunk loonatics lol.

So how's dancing going for you? Have your dance classes stopped for the summer holidays now? I had my last class on sat.
yeah, moving out of beginner dances is really good. I was also very happy when I did so. At some point you just can't take the beg reel any longer :) How are the intermediates going? I can undestand it's a struggle. I've so far only done the reel and omg it seems like I'll never get it right. It definitely is a lot harder than primary. I don't even think my interm reel is that difficult compared to others, but it's causing me enough problems as it is:) there is this back spin where I keep losing my balance and completely fall over lol.

Dunno when my next feis'll be. Not munich though. I'm at my cousins wedding that day. I'm thinking about doing the one in Germany in september.

Ok, I just saw this comment is getting oversized. Maybe it can compensate for the lack of comments the last few months :)

At 5:00pm on May 14, 2009, Róisín O'Neill said…: Hey Christine,
sorry I haven't writen to you for ages. I've been so busy with school all year :(:( and some unexpected things happened in my family the last months so I've been quite occupied. Anyway, just to let you know I'm not ignoring you or have forgotten about you ;)
So how's life in Austria? Gotten used again to not living in Ireland anymore or are you still homesick? Are you completing your degree now or do you still have another year left?
Oh, I just saw the results from Szb feis. Omg, your results are amazing!! Congrats!! That must've been so cool.
Well, gotta go now. Have a nice weekend! I know it's only thursday, but I'm trying to be optimistic :)
