Short course cancelled

Sadly, this semester’s short course was cancelled due to low enrollment. The good news, however, is that I’ll be giving group lessons on weekends for anyone in the area who is preparing for springtime feisanna, especially the 28 May Emmitsburg Feis.

Things have been dull lately. With these dreary winter days, there hasn’t been much for me to practice my photography skills (or lack thereof) on. I’m in the middle of a web design project for MDC that’s progressing slowly. I’ve spent the past two weeks heavily involved in watching the 2006 Torino Games and doing a lot of Irish dancing practice for my own steps. I’m working on my new set dances, Piper Through the Meadow Strayin’ and Planxty Drury, both of which I composed myself based on hornpipe and treble jig steps I learned at various workshops.

St. Patrick’s Day is coming up and a group of us is trying to get permission to dance at O’Neil’s on The Corner. I’m also looking for a new apartment, with less than five months left in my current place.
