Introduction

Every year, our school has a Valentines Day dance in the gym. Sometimes, the dances are really fun. At other times, they can get pretty boring. This dance, however, was probably one of the best dances I’ve ever been too.

Why?

This has probably been the best dance because I was more outgoing than I usually am, and I had fun doing that. Also, I wasn’t alone. I was dancing with Ashley and Kate the whole time except at the beginning of the dance.

The Beginning

At the beginning of most dances at our school, people just stand around talking. I think this is mainly because there are few people there. Also, it could be that the music at the beginning of our dances aren’t that great to dance to. I’m not sure yet, but I’ll figure it out soon!

Later on, people start dancing their butts off!!

The Fun Part

When students dance at dances, they dance hard! Almost everybody dances. I remember when I just sat against the wall the whole dance. Now, I’m a dancing machine :lol:. I must warn you though, I’m not very good at it. Anyways, I haven’t even gotten to my favourite part of the dance!

The Slow Dance

Yes, I really enjoy the slow dance. One reason is because since it’s slow, I get to rest my feet for a little bit. Also, it’s often the girls that ask me to dance, so that gives me a little bit of encouragement, because I am very shy. After the last slow dance, unfortunately, the dance ends.

The Sad Part

After the last slow dance, everybody exits the gym, puts on their winter gear (if needed) and leaves. That’s basically it.

Conclusion

I had a really good time at this Valentines Day dance. I hope you learned a lot about our dances at our school!
