Hello again everyone! I hope everyone\u2019s February is going well. The stressfulness of coursework hand-ins and exams are finally over and we have plunged straight into semester two. I am definitely ready for more essays and performances.<\/p>\n

As mentioned in my first blog post, I am part of AU Dance<\/a> and this month we had our 3-day annual dance show. If anyone has seen the show last year, they will know how professional it looks, the result of how much we practice towards the final show.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme was \u2018Route 66\u2019, so all the dance\u2019s themes had to be related to America somehow. My jazz dance was inspired by a Cherokee tribe, my ballet dance by flapper girls, my hip-hop dance by a Super Bowl half-time show and my contemporary dance by an American war. The tickets were all sold out and the audience was absolutely amazing. I would definitely recommend anyone who wants to try dance to join the club next year.<\/p>\n

I have recently been quite interested in reading and listening to poetry and I found the University really encourages poetry. The Loughborough Women\u2019s Network<\/a> is having a festival on 15th March and one of my classmates is involved in it. I have been given the opportunity to perform poetry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the 27th of March, a popular event known as Speech Bubble<\/a> is returning at the Students Union. This will be a night filled with spoken word and open mic performances and I will definitely be attending. If you aren\u2019t busy, feel free to drop by. You\u2019ll only need to show your student card to get in.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it from me this month. Hope your February was more eventful then mine! See you all next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
