*Getting rude stares when you are curling your hair with spike curlers
*Wearing socks glued to your calves
*Wearing an obnoxiously curly wig
*Having an excuse to wear "too much" bright blue eyeshadow and red lipstick
*Laughing at people who try to pronounce "Feis"
*Being able to wear florescent orange, yellow, green, and purple together and having it considered the ultimate in cool
*Being called a "Riverdancer"
*Being confused with cloggers
*Having people think you are SO talented
*Being yelled at in dance class

AND THE NUMBER ONE *JOY*....

*Being able to run around in puffy bloomers and a tank top, with spike curlers in your hair, poodle socks glued to your shins, dancing and walking at the same time...while looking like everyone else around you! Ahhh. The feis!*
