MY HOBBIES I dance and I sing. That's what I like and that's what I do best. :) Apart from that, i like to talk, and listen to music, and read (AND SING!) I don't like sport, and I'm not very good at it. I also like writing. :) I play clarinet and bass clarinet, and am in Intermediate Concert Band and Symphonic band, which I love. I'm also really enjoying My Fair Lady, the school's production for 2009. :) One of the highlights of my year is also Band Tour. :D AMBITIONS  When I leave school I want to perform. I want to spend a gap year working at Disneyland in Paris, as a performer there. Then I'd like to do musical theatre at WAAPA or VCA, and hopefully go on and have a career in musical theatre. If I don't do musical theatre, I'd like to be a journalist, in the area of Travel or Theatre. I'd like to be paid to see live theatre! :D
