Edinburgh: Part 3 - National Museum of Scotland

My boys Adam and Chris. Beauties!

We are such goof balls! 

From the first day of arriving in Edinburgh I was very keen on going to the museum. It wasn't till the last day of the fringe that me and my boys ventured down the block and took a peek! I had a lot of fun walking around feeling like a kid, looking at all of the different animals and exhibitions. I also could not get enough of the amazing ceilings! 

Thanks for tuning in!

Boots

1. AllSaints Mid Calf Lace Up Boots - £175

2. Nine West Low Heel Boots - £94

3. J.Crew Mid Heel Boots - £160 

4. ModCloth Short Heel Boots - £41

5. Steve Madden Low Heel Boots - £63

Ok, so here's the deal - I need new boots. 

Last October I did a show called The Hoof and Mouth Advantage where I got to keep my show shoes, that happen to be the most beautiful pair of boots. I am pretty sure I have worn them almost everyday since I got to take them home. Here's a picture of me wearing them last winter! 

Since I wear them all the time they are getting pretty destroyed and it is time to get a new pair before they fall apart completely! I know boots are expensive and that's the problem! I have a hard time spending lots of money on things. I would much rather spend money on groceries or dance classes! I know I need to just suck it up and take the plunge. Does anyone have any boot buying advice?

My Edinburgh Fringe Cabaret.

Hello everyone!

This is a little cabaret I threw together for the Edinburgh Fringe! I had so much fun performing that evening to such a lovely crowd! It was an exciting night for me and I definitely learned a few things, for example, make sure you leave yourself enough time to breath after tapping! It was also my first time ever performing with a ukulele, ekkk!!!

 Another thing that was absolutely bananas about that night was that it was my first time singing a song I have been wanting to sing for about 5 years (we ran out of time to even go through it once)! You see, there is no sheet music for this song because it is so old. So one of my friends Gavin, who is a musical genius, transcribed the song for me that day. I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for tuning in!

A Day Of Therapy

 Chris, Bracken and Adam. That's there "AHH, we're putting up a brand new musical" face.

Ms. Director. 

Fellas be acting. 

Adam demonstrating his mad skills of active listen. Very important for an actor.

Written by Alex Wright and Gavin Whitworth, directed by Bracken Burns and starring the talents of Adam Rhys-Davies and Chris Pollard, Therapy is a brand new musical that makes it's debut this Thursday.
