Heyas,
I've just been to this Hafla thing, and moment I got in there, even though every one else was dressed up, I felt really self concious. I slipped on my cossie, but before my family arrived I thought I'd give mysen some 'dutch courage'.
Thing is, I have no self confidence what so ever. Everyone was like, "but you have to dance, you're the best here" and " Aww, don't you look lovely".
I felt well bad, then my family arrived and my great gram whose in a wheel chair made all the effort to come and see me, and I was scared off my head.
I spent half hour in Loo's drinking vodka and mull wine. (which wasn't a good thing...)
So, I went out and started my little dance, but it was alright with other people dancing too, but when they left I felt like a reyt lemon in the middle alone.
Well anyways, I did Isis wings, and a bit of a solo, but I really felt I'd let everyone down espec my great gram, bless. I know the dances and music and can imrpovise alright, but when it comes to being infront of other people I flake out.
Do you have any tips on how to kind of... get out there and stuff? I'm loud enough everywhere else.
Cheers
Sara
