Strictly Come Dancing

30th, Jan, '15

Today I went to Gorey Community Schools strictly come dancing semi-finals in the Amber Springs hotel in Gorey. I was reluctant to go at first but I then thought why not have a bit of fun with my friends and watch some of my other friends dance. Besides, I wasn't going to the cinema with Spleodar anyway. The doors opened at seven and the place filled up pretty quickly, we just about managed to get a row of seats for ourselves, but we didn't have the best view. But a lot of people had to stand. Everybody was dressed really nice for the occasion. When the actual dancing started I was extremely suprised. I didn't realize my friends could dance that well, some of them had never even danced before. I was very impressed. We were all kind of dancing to the music in our seats and had a good laugh. I was so glad I decided to go. The dancers were so talented.
For the interval act, a group of teachers got up and danced to Dolly Parton's 'nine till five'. It was quite funny seeing them dance, but fair play to them for getting up on stage in front of everyone.
Then we got to vote for our favourite dancers, I voted for my cousin, Séan, not because he's my cousin, but before now I had never ever seen him dance and he was amazing on the night so he must of put in a lot of effort to get that far. All the dancers did a second act, they wore such beautiful outfits, then once they had all danced the winner was announced. Reece and Anu came first, they deserved it, Anu is the best dancer in our school, probably even the county, she trains all the time even before the competition was on. Séan came second with his partner. I think they all deserved it. They are going to go into the final against the Naomh Eanna dancers. I will definatly be getting my ticket for that.
At the end of the night, about 11p.m there was a disco. Most people got up and danced, this was really fun. me and my friends are terrible at dancing and tried to dance as silly as possible. I laughed so much. Then it was home for the rest of the weekend. Can't wait till the final.


All of the dancers being introduced on stage.


 Waiting nervously for the results!
The following photos weren't taken by me. From the seats we were sitting in I couldn't get photos as good a quality as this, but I just wanted to show all of you the fabulous outfits in detail.
