My dance exams in July - Dance Saturday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,

 As some of you may know, I'm doing my summer dance exams with my studio, on the 7th of July. I'm doing ballroom and street. In ballroom, I'm doing jive and quick step. I find jive quite easy, until you add in the arms and you start practicing with a partner because you have to coordinate your arms and feet. In comparison to other dances, jive has a lot more arm movement and it changes throughout the dance so you have to remember what comes next quickly. I don't mind quick step but the tempo confuses me a bit and I keep on mixing up the pivot step with the brush step so I'm continuing to practice that outside of lessons. As for street, I'm doing a fun, upbeat dance to 1999 by Charli XCX and a more pedestrian, layed back dance to Don't Call Me Up by Mabel. I'm confident in the dances but I just need to make sure, with the second dance, I'm not putting as much energy into it as with the first dance. However, I'm looking forward to doing both my ballroom and street dances and I hope that I do well!

 Are you taking any dance exams in the summer? Let me know in the comments below and I'll be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you!

 See you next time,

 Bye,

 XOX, Juliette

"They shall not grow old,as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them,nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them." To the 60 people that died during WW1 in my village. Many of them were either buried in the location that they fell or were missing and never found.  "Their name liveth for evermore." Rudyard Kipling From my trip to the Somme and Arras. In Flanders fields- John Mccrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses,row on row, That Mark our place; and in the sky The larks,still bravely singing,fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived,felt dawn,saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved,and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not slee

Finding something new to study

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Today, I am going to be doing something a little bit different. I've been on the hunt for something new to study. I looked up 'interesting things to study' and it came up with: How to pickle your own vegetables (?!) Learn a new language ( I am bilingual) Learn to code (been doing enough of that already) Find out more about microbiology (too complicated) I just wanted to find out more about a particular subject. So then I searched up 'interesting SUBJECTS to study'. It came up with this: Mathematics (I'm on holiday)  English (again, I'm on holiday) Complete study and practice of geography ( again,again, I'm on holiday) So I thought. I've been really enjoying history. Let's search up some fun history topics to study. It came up with this. Korean war (meh) Franco-Spanish war (mmh) The Crusades (maybe later) Holocaust (interesting, I've been studying that) So as y

Entering the real world - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  I've been writing blog posts for a while now and a lot of them have been about school and my life as a student. I started writing casually at the age of 12 years old when I was nearing the end of year 8, and then I finished my final few student-life blog posts in May of this year, when I finished my IB studies as a year 13 student. Who knows if I will return to education in the future, but right now I am definitely getting a taste of the real world.  I didn't expect to get offered anything so soon after my exams finished but recently I applied for a job with a punting company in Cambridge. I applied because I wanted to get the job in time for the summer when there would be lots of tourists coming to Cambridge, and I also saw on the job advert that the position would be very suitable for young people taking a gap year, so I thought I would jump at the chance of giving it a go. The position I applied for was to be a history
