Tomorrow evening I will be one step closer to 30 - it's performance time! I'm actually quite excited :) and I haven't had an attack of nerves yet, which in that weird over-thinking it way has made me panic slightly haha, but no, I'm feeling calm. We've been practising for a few weeks now, so I feel fairly confident - we've managed to get through quite a few dances without me say 'ooh, sorry' halfway through!!
So, I don't know what music we're dancing on, that's the man's job to choose seeing as he is the one who has to be inspired to improvise on it. Actually now writing about it is making me slightly nervous, this is good, get it out of the system, but seriously, what were we thinking agreeing to do a performance which is improvised?!?!... But I know we're dancing on Di Sarli, and then on D'Arienzo so we've been practising on those orchestras. And I've sorted my outfit - black skirt, pale pink corset top with black beading, my favourite shoes which as dusky pink at the front and black at the back, chandelier earrings in pale pink. Just need to remember to take plenty of sticky tape to keep the top fixed in place :) but it makes me feel like a proper tango dancer, love it!! so tonight I need to bake cakes to take because it's a charity event so I'm doing my bit - Easter nests and lemon drizzle cake - and then tomorrow I can do my nails and toenails and decide what I'm doing with my hair (hair up - I noticed on the video of our practise last night that it looks so much more elegant when my hair is up and you can see my neck). Wow, how feckin narcissistic do I sound?!
Anyway, we've had our final practise last night, time to get ready now, and then Saturday night is performance - fingers crossed, break a leg, merde and all that jazz!
