Cause this is THRILLER! Thriller night...



Yes, I understand that this blog is two days late, but it's a good thing, because I wasn't thinking particularly straight when I should have written it.

As most of you guys knew, I was so excited for our dance that took place on Wednesday. I had convinced Eileen, my best school friend, to go, by telling her that if no one asked her to dance, that she and I could waltz around the room with our invisible boyfriends. (Which we ended up doing, mind you)

I logged onto here for a few brief minutes after I got home from school before running off to take a shower, and I see Nadine had posted something along these lines:

Omg, have fun at your dance! KISS LAURENCE!! xD Sorry. Spazz. I just want you guys to have a happy ending Lmao, but at least slow dance with him!! *nods vigorously*

I panicked a bit, and took off to shower, get dressed, take off my glasses, etc.

So when the big time finally came: Oct. 21st at about 6:15, my mom, little brother, and I left our house for the bus. (Yeah. I live in a different city than my school. There's a bus that runs up and down between them for dances and regular school days.) Now, I realize that this is very dorky. But there were other kids on the bus, and for once, instead of the very front of the bus with all the little sixth-graders, us seventh-graders kicked the eighth-graders out of the back rows. That was insanely fun. We bothered people in the cars that would dare stop at the back of the bus. Talk about funny. One lady told Taylor to call her! One of my other best guy friends. He looks like this:

After another hilarious 35 minutes, we arrived at the dance, and our creepy, but awesome bus driver told all the boys to sit down, and that since it was a dance, it was ladies first. So all the girls got to get off the bus first.

We all streamed out and got ready to go, I have to use my own special phrase that made Eileen laugh uber hard: Dance our buttocks off, laughing like crazed hyenas as we bounce up and down. I started getting my usual pre-dance excitement way high, and started running, whooping, spinning, and shouting into nothingness.

Then from behind me I hear,"Oi! Lauren! Wait up!" And Eileen came out of her car and joined my pre-dance ritual as we ran the 30 feet to our school.

We ran into Jenna and Abi just inside the door, and decided to go inside the dance room (our cafeteria. xD) So we went in and started to have a great time.

There were about 10 people there already, and it was already getting warm. We couldn't very well dance, because it's hard when nobody knows what the song is. LOL! So we decided just to hang. Oh, I totally forgot to mention the theme! It was a "Black-Out Dance" which means that the whole thing is in black light. You know, the kind that looks purple, and makes white and neon things glow. So we were all in neon. I had on a neon green, pink, yellow, and blue shirt. xD It glowed very well. Eileen had on neon green shirt and pants. Jenna had forgotten that we were supposed to wear neon, so she didn't glow. Abi had on majorly neon socks. Yeah. xD

Then Josh showed up! We made him dance. That was a lot of fun. LOL! He doesn't dance a whole lot. Oh, here's Josh:

He's a nerd, but so sweet! Me and Laurence are his best friends.

So we danced like heck as soon as a good song came on, and within five minutes, we were hot and tired. So we ran out and hung out with some water for a while.

Laurence showed up then, and after about 2 minutes, we all went back inside and made Laurence AND Josh dance. That was really funny. "Thriller" came on as soon as we went back in, and all my friends in dance (all the girls mentioned except me) started doing the Thriller dance. What's sad, is that they talk about is so often, that I know it too. All I have to say here is this:

Two boys trying to keep up with four girls doing "Thriller" = ROFL

Literally nobody finished the dance because we fell over at the sight of those two. Oh, forgot to show you guys Laurence:



His hair's a bit lighter, and usually messier than that though. Now picture those two, trying to go,"Cause this this THRILLER! Thriller night.", and you can imagine.

After a few more songs, the first slow song came on. Jenna had already claimed the one that I wanted to ask, and Josh had asked me. LOL! I couldn't say no though. Josh is too nice. So now, let's skip over the rest of that.

We requested "Don't Stop Believin'" but it never got played. xD

There was one more slow dance, and I asked Kieran because Abi had taken HIM, again. (other guy friend.) He looks like this:

The dance ended at 9:00, and we all hurried back out and got on the bus. I think I crashed somewhere along the way, because instead of it taking about 45 minutes to get back to my house, it seemed to take about 20. LOL!

So all in all, I had a good time.

Thanks for listening to me ramble on!

-Lauren(ce) and I will dance next time
